May 4th is coming up and you know what that means…..Star Wars Day!
According to StarWars.com:
“May the 4th be with you.” What started as pun warmly shared by fans has become a full-fledged Star Wars holiday: Star Wars Day, a special once-a-year celebration of the galaxy far, far away.
One of the earliest known records of “May the 4th” used in popular culture is in 1979, as described here by author Alan Arnold while he was chronicling the making of The Empire Strikes Back for Lucasfilm: “Margaret Thatcher has won the election and become Britain’s first woman prime minister. To celebrate their victory her party took a half page of advertising space in the London Evening News. This message, referring to the day of victory, was ‘May the Fourth Be With You, Maggie. Congratulations,’ further proof of the extent to which Star Wars has influenced us all.”
So for all of you Star Wars loving fans out there…we found some crafts online that you can do with the kiddos. Without further ado, here are the crafts…..Ok…just one more ado:
Quite a few fun crafts that we will be trying out….let us know how yours turn out. We hope the force will be with you and we hope you have a rocking good time…just like rocking Yoda here:
I knew I wanted a new wreath for Easter but didn’t want to spend $40 for a pre-made one. So I decided to do it myself! Having never made a wreath before, I wanted to find something fairly simple but cute. The Mom & Wife blog had a cute picture come up on a Google search, so I checked out their page and read through their instructions. I tweaked a few things but was pretty happy with the outcome and it only cost me $15!
My first attempt at replicating something I saw on Pinterest was six years ago. I wanted to create an owl cake for my daugther’s first birthday. The cake on the left is from Pinterest, and the pink cake on the right was my attempt. Not too bad for my first try!
Celebrating St. Patrick’s Day isn’t just for adults! Check out some of the fun ideas we found that you can do with your kids.
