| The Games/Trials: As stated above, each
Jedi was given a card.
everytime we played a game they were given a star to
go on their training card, putting them closer to
becoming
a Star Wars Jedi.
I had written
out two plans. One plan was if it did not rain and we
could use the yard for the party
and the other plan was if it did rain and we were stuck
inside. It did rain and we were stuck inside. I was
bummed
because we had to split the kids up for the games and
because space for the games was much smaller. Looking
back, it worked in the end and luckily the garage was
cleaned out.

Trial 1:
Learn the names of the characters.
We played Jedi Bingo
I had glow bracelets on my arm. When someone got a Bingo,
I gave them a bracelet. Of course, we played till
everyone was a winner.
We did a cake
walk on star wars masks. They would walk around on the
masks till the music stopped. When the music stopped the
children would
stop on a mask. I would draw a mask and anyone on the
mask would sit on the given maks. Play until only one is
left standing.

Trial 2: Jedi Training
Course
This would have been much more exciting outside,
but the kids still loved it. We ended up setting
up in our basement.
The kids wore Yoda on
their back (like Luke did while training). I
found the greatest backpack on amazon.com. It is
below.
1.) First they put yoda on
their back.
2.) The kids had to go
through cones with storm troopers on them.
3.) They had to fly a
star fighter into a black hole. This was a
frisbee with a picture of a Starfighter on it and
a black bucket.
4.)They had to go
through Dagobah Tunnle. Basically a play tunnle
with green string hanging from it. 
5.) They had to make
their way over hot lava. A red table cloth with
black stones on top.
6.) The plan for if it
was nice out was to have a kiddie swimming pool
filled with green water. The kids would take off
their shoes and walk through the swamp.
They each took turns
going through this. My husband hyped it up by
telling the kids how important the Jedi Training
course was and how each activity related to the
movies.

Trial 3: Save
the Princess
Blow up balloons and put a princess paper inside each
balloon. Children sit on the balloon and pull out the
princess to save her. I suggest the smaller balloons -
they pop much easier.
Trial 4: Jedi
Scavenger Hunt
Each player was given the card above and to find each of
the items. Once again, it rained over the party and we
had to do this inside and it would have been easier to do
this activity outside.
They had to find a mini darth head, a milk bottle (it had
magnets of various characters in it), a wrapped Star Wars
gift (this was a McDees Star Wars Toy), and asteroid
(foil wrapped with candy in it), and pop rocks.
Trial 5: Pin
the X-wing on the Death Star
 
We ordered a Death Star Poster from Zazzle. Each child
was given an x-wing cut-out. They put on sunglasses with
tape over the lense so they
could not see and had to try and get their x-wing in the
middle of the Death Star.
Trial 6:
Light Saber Practice
We gave each child a lightsaber made out of a pool
Noodle.
We were at Disney in May and they had Jedi Training camp
at Hollywood Studios. My husband basically stole the
moves from the act
at Hollywood Studios and taught the kids a few moves with
their sabers. If the weather was good we had planned to
let them pop bubbles with the sabers.
Since we were inside we packed up the sabers for use
later.

Trial 7:
Faceoff with Darth Vader
The kiddos gathered around the garage doors and
concentrated on using their new Jedi powers to life the
gargage doors open. When they opened the garage doors,
Darth Vader appeared. Each child in groups of two got to
lightsaber with Vader.
Other Filler
Games:
Pass C-3PO
I got a C-3PO from Amazon and played Star Wars Music
while the kids played passed C3PO. My daughter claimed
this little doll as one of her favorites after the party!
