by Sharon Rowley 1 Comment

What tweens don't love the Star Wars movies? When my son's 11th birthday coincided with the release of the latest Star Wars film “Rogue One”- we knew we had a theme that would be perfect for kids birthday parties! I'll show you what we did at our Star Wars themed sleepover party along with some other great Star Wars Party Ideas for Tweens!

We invited our guests to be dropped off at our home in the late afternoon where we loaded them into our large 12-passenger family van and headed over to the movie theatre. (Since this was opening weekend, we purchased our tickets ahead of time online so we wouldn't have to worry that the movie would be sold out!)

I distributed popcorn and water bottles to our guests, and we settled in for a fantastic movie (truly- Rogue One This is an affiliate link: MomOf6 earns a commission if you purchase, at no additional cost to you. was all kinds of AWESOME!).

After the movie, we returned home where the kids made their own mini pizzas and enjoyed these cupcakes that were made with these cool Stormtrooper cake toppers This is an affiliate link: MomOf6 earns a commission if you purchase, at no additional cost to you. I found on Etsy!

After pizza and cupcakes, the boys spent time playing Lego Stars Wars This is an affiliate link: MomOf6 earns a commission if you purchase, at no additional cost to you. on the Wii U before settling down for the night.

The next morning they feasted on homemade Belgian waffles and played some more video games before picking up their Stormtrooper watch party favors and heading home. (Note on the party favors, my husband works for the watch company that makes these amazing Stormtrooper watches so we were able to score a deal on them, but you find similar ones for much less here This is an affiliate link: MomOf6 earns a commission if you purchase, at no additional cost to you. !)
