Star Wars Day: Celebrate May the 4th
Calling all Star Wars fans! May the 4th is just around the corner, and we have some great ideas to help you celebrate.
Watch Your Favorite Star Wars Movies and Shows
Why not celebrate the day by watching you favorite Star Wars movies and shows? It’s also a great way to introduce your friends and family who haven’t seen the films yet. All of the Star Wars movies and shows are streaming on Disney+. The big question you’ll need to decide is if you will watch everything in theatrical release order or if you will watch it based on the Star Wars universe timeline?
Dress Up in Your Favorite Gear
This is the perfect day to rock that Star Wars shirt or Princess Leia buns! Don’t have a Star Wars shirt? No problem! You can still easily dress up as one of your favorite characters. For example you can wear a white dress, then add some buns – and you are Princess Leia. If you have a white shirt, black vest, and jeans, you can easily dress up as Han Solo. The possibilities are endless. Check out Vogue’s website for an easy Princess Leia bun how to!
Whip Up Some Star Wars Themed Recipes
The official Star Wars site has some amazing recipes to try and are perfect for Star Wars Day. Why not try your hand at making some Bad Batch cookies? Or make some Blue Milk Pudding, which according to the site is a Tatooine treat. You can also find recipes for Star Wars themed tiki drinks.
