Star Wars Birthday Party

By: Cheryl Pierce..

Though there hasn't recently been a film release, Star Wars remains a very popular favorite among fans new and old. Kids of all ages from 3 to 53 find the world that was made by Star Wars inventor George Lucas to be an boundlessly bewitching world in which to permit their imagination and fantasies to take flight in that galaxy far, far away.

If your special birthday girl or boy is a devotee of these films this is the can't miss party theme to add to your perfect birthday party list. There are lots of ways you can go that will bring the theme to light in a way that permits all involved to have fun.

To Start, you could have a classic Star Wars party with the pilot Episodes (IV, V, and VI) showing one after the other throughout the party. This is perfect for an all night or all day sort of party as it provides breaks in between the screenings and lots of time to include some serious snack creating or pizza ordering without intervening with the DVDs being shown in the back ground.

If you want to take things a step further you can also have your invitees come dressed as their favorite Star Wars characters from all 6 films. If you are sincerely adventurous you can do a back-to-back showing of all six films although this makes for a very long weekend sort of event. Perfect if your birthday lands on or around a 3-day weekend such as Labor Day or Memorial Day. Otherwise it's a great idea but you may want to split it up into two years' worth of festivities.

If your friends or your child's friends are a creative crowd you can have a session where guests reflect and create tall tales about what happens between Episodes III and IV as well as what passes to favorite characters after Episode VI. This is a lot of fun and creates a sort of role-playing aura for the party that can be a great amount of fun. If this isn't enough action and you want a little something extra to wear the kids (big or small) out, you might choose to invite your guests to a Jedi coaching academy of sorts. Set up an obstacle course for the kids to follow and a series of exercises to what Luke went through in The Empire Strikes Back. The champion can get some Star Wars themed award for laughs and a little added excitement.

Most bakeshops are likely to have a great form cake on hand or in stock for Star Wars because the theme remains so popular. If not, however, there are nice, cake ideas online that work really great for a Star Wars theme with home made birthday cakes.
