Star Wars Crafts & Treats Round-up

Star Wars: Episode 1–The Phan­tom Men­ace 3D opens in the­aters today! I’ve men­tioned before that we have some Star Wars fans in the house–both lit­tle and big! Here’s some proof (from Christ­mas) and evi­dence that Big Brother’s dress-up bin was a BIG hit!!!

Light saber fights are a reg­u­lar occur­rence around here–complete with a 22 month jedi-in-training involved! And, the excite­ment from the open­ing music of Star Wars start­ing in the house is pal­pa­ble. How­ever, at just shy of 5, Big Brother hasn’t seen a whole Star Wars movie yet. Mr. Mom Endeav­ors knows the movies so well, that he just skips through and shows clips. With Star Wars: Episode 1 in 3D hit­ting the­aters today, we’ve had a few dis­cus­sions about whether or not to take Big Brother. What do you think? What age is appro­pri­ate for lit­tle ones to see Star Wars?

Whether you’ll be tak­ing kid­dos to the the­aters or not, I thought the first Star Wars release in 3D was the per­fect time to share a round-up of awe­some Star Wars activ­i­ties, crafts, and treats from around the web! These ideas are SO awesome–sure to be hits with your lit­tle Jedi!!
