A Question for You
Things to Do to Celebrate Star Wars Day
May 4th - May the Fourth Be With You
Ideas for Anyone
* Watch the movies!!!!
* Bake & decorate an cool Star Wars cake for home, school, office, friends, whatever. For over the top incredible cakes, you HAVE TO see the Star Wars Birthday Cakes page linked on this page. You may not believe your eyes!
* Print out and color some free Star Wars Coloring Pages (just search Google)
* Get all that fun Star Wars stuff out of those boxes and drawers and PLAY
* Have a Yoda Look-Alike contest
* Have a Wookiee Sound-Alike contest
Ideas with Kids
* Gather some little Jedi in training and make toilet paper roll lightsabers.
* Bend twist balloons into lightsaber shapes
* Watch some Clone Wars
* Decorate cupcakes, cookies, anything!
* Dress up!
Ideas for Teens and Grown-ups
* Serve up a simple or mega-amazing dinner based on Star Wars. Think up some cool Star Wars names for the food (Yoda Yummies, Wookiee Cookies, Skywalker Ranch Chicken, Ewok Forest Greens, Tauntaun Guts [spaghetti - ewww], Juri Juice).
* Make Juri Juice - Juri juice is an inebriating, addictive drink favored by Kabe and available at the Mos Eisley Cantina in various collectible jars. I am sure the recipe is posted somewhere online. I am not responsible for your actions if you drink this.
* Play Star Wars Monopoly (it's my favorite form of this awesome board game!)
* (My son says "Let your dad cut off your hand." - Not recommended by me)
* Design a Mos Eisley Cantina, turn up some Star Wars soundtrack music, and invite Star Wars friends. Costumes are always a plus!
May the Force Be With You
on May 4th and every day
How about Making a Millennium Falcon Cake?
(come on, you can do it)
Yep - this is a cake! Wow. I don't think I could ever make something this amazing, but I might try decorating a sheet cake or some cupcakes for Star Wars Day. Maybe there is a great cake decorator near you!

howdoyouspellstupid says:

Star Wars is the best!!!
Jillynn says:
Makes sense to me!
NO!
pyngthyngs says:
Hmm.. Some people may think so but if you ask me its maybe a little extreme.
healthyjoe says:
I do like it, although not to the extend to make it an official holiday!
aquarian_insight says:
I'm all for extra holidays, but I can't think of any reason to change this particular wacky holiday.
EcoPottiJo says:
Whilst I like bonkers ideas, its a bit too bonkers to allow people off work to celebrate it and its likely to become deathly boring. Tis more fun like it is! LOL
River_Rose says:
not really, sorry.
