May the Fourth Be With You: Star Wars Day

May 4, 2022

Wednesday, May 4, 2022

Calling all Jedis in Training! It’s time to report for duty! Join us at Pretend City for a spaced-out day of Star Wars activities as we celebrate May the Fourth be With You! Dress in your best Star Wars outfit and receive $1 off admission!

Purpose Behind the Play: Concept development through curiosity and exploratory behavior, cognition exploring science concepts, gross and loco-motor development. 

Smart Art (on-going): Out of the World Art:  

  • Grab a clear kyber crystal and dip it in your lightsaber color of choice to assist in painting a whole new galaxy to explore! 
  • Use our loose parts to make your own robot, spacecraft, or flying object to take home! 

Sensational Science: (on-going in STEAM Lab): Did you know that lightsabers are great for illuminating a scientific exploration of materials? 

Sensational Story Time in Orange Plaza (11 AM & 2:30 PM):  Star Wars – A Jedi You Will Be > Learn how to use the Force in this funny and adorable picture book narrated by everybody’s favorite Jedi Master, Yoda! 

Let’s Move (Directly after Storytime): Junior Jedi Academy is calling all brave Jedi Knights! Join us as we train to defeat the Empire. Use your light saber skills to slash your way through the obstacles of the galaxy and battle droids 

Grown-up Tip: There are many important themes in movies like Star Wars, such as doing the right thing even when it is hard to do. Think about using stories that appeal to children to open a discussion about these important values. It’s a great opportunity to talk about the qualities that separated the ‘good guys’ from the ‘bad guys’ as well as the emotions these characters must have felt. 

RSVP:    Not required
Fee:    Included with museum admission. Come dressed as a Star Wars character for $1.00 off of general admission!
