5 New Ways to Celebrate Star Wars Day
From Starwars.com:
It’s almost May the 4th! The annual celebration of all things Star Wars is probably old hat to you by now. Wear a Star Wars T-shirt? Roger. Spin up the movie marathon? Roger roger. But maybe you’re looking to change things up this year to make this Star Wars Day one to remember.
If so, we’ve got you covered. Here are five ideas for something a little different to try this May the 4th as we celebrate the 40th anniversary of Star Wars: A New Hope.
1. Find a friend who’s never seen Star Wars and invite them over to watch A New Hope in honor of the anniversary.
It might be hard to believe, but there are people out there who have never seen a Star Wars film — and they’re probably one of your friends or family members. Or, maybe, it’s just been way too long since they’ve seen one of the movies.
Use May the 4th to reach out to someone you’d love to spend Star Wars Day with and invite them to watch A New Hope with you. Just try not to talk too much about your favorite scenes while they’re getting their first look at a galaxy far, far away.
5. Read a Star Wars story to your kids for bedtime.
When Star Wars Day is almost done, there’s still time for one last little way to celebrate. Pick up a new picture book starring one of your favorite Star Wars characters, like ABC-3PO, one of Jeffrey Brown’s (illustrator of the above image) great titles like Darth Vader and Son, or a vintage book you saved from when you were a kid, and read them at bedtime. You and the kids just might have Star Wars dreams that night to cap the perfect day together.
