Last year I threw a Star Wars Jedi Academy Birthday Party for my son. I’ve uploaded everything onto Tip Junkie Printables so you can print it out for free! I made their uniforms out of brown felt and rope.
Here’s an awesome Jedi Academy (Star Wars) Birthday Party Invitation. You can print out an example at Tip Junkie Printables.
We played several games. Here are some suggestions:
- Jedi Training Course
- Decorate Pod Racers and then race them
- Light Saber Training
- Clone Wars
- Pin the Saber on Yoda
- Asteroid Hunt
- Save Princess Leia
- Gungan Water Balloon Fight
- Defeat the Death Star
- Destroy the Death Star
- Release Han Solo
- Thermal Detonator Pass
- Certificates of Jedi Completion
You can get instructions for these games here.
- Dark Food on Red tablecloth with Sith poster. Light food on Lt. Blue tablecloth with Jedi Poster.
- Anakin’s Mechanical Hands: popcorn stuffed into plastic (onetime use gloves) and ice cream cups (chocolate for Dark side and vanilla for the light side).
- Darth Malts: red Hawaiian punch & Sprite with a scoop of vanilla ice cream. With red straws and clear cups.
- Yoda Soda: green Hawaiian punch & sprite with a scoop of vanilla ice scream. With green straws and clear cups.
- Chocolate light sabers: pretzels dipped in red or lt blue colored melts. Foil on ends.
- Darth Mix & Jedi Mix: raisins (dark for darth, light for jedi),
- M&M’s (separate colors),
- “Crunchberries” out of captain crunch (red & purple for darth, blue & green for Jedi),
- peanuts, & chex cereal. Scoop them into colored ice cream cones for “holders” (red for darth, green for Jedi)
We played Star Wars Bingo and I also gave each Jedi their own game as a parting gift.

What a marvelous idea! My nephews birthday is coming up. I’ll direct my sister to your blog.
I am so glad that I found you! My son is wanting a Jedi b-day party in a month. I some ideas for the party like the costumes and stuff but I had no Idea about the food. Thanks for the tips.
This is so cute. I cannot wait until my little guy is bigger and has parties and such.

I’m so bummed that I saw this a month after my little bro’s birthday! He is OBSESSED with all things Star Wars and this would have been perfect. Hopefully he is still into Star Wars next year…
awesome party!!! My little one will be 1 year old in December… but since his middle name is Anakin, I’m sure we’ll be having a Star Wars party in the future. thanks for posting.
You are an inspiration! Such great ideas and I look forward to a happy birthday boy!
We had our Star Wars party yesterday and we used a lot of your games and food ideas, it was such a hit! Thank you so much for the wonderful ideas!
Love the Jedi Robes. How did you make them?
Yes – I just used 1/2 yard of brown felt. Folded them in half from the middle so that the edges are free. Cut a “V” in the middle to make a head hole. It took a few minutes and only a few bucks. As each boy arrived I thew one over their head and tied it together with rope. They loved it!

I love the costume idea! My son’s party will be half boys and half girls so I’m thinking brown for boys with white cord and white for girls with gold cord. Hope it works!
These are some great ideas! I’d love to see the specifics that you put on Executive Homemaker but the link didn’t work. Do you have these linked any place else? Thanks!
I’ve updated all the links to the new Executive Homemaker blog. They should work now. Thanks for letting me know!
These are great. Thanks for sharing!

I’m so happy to find this! My son is turning 6 and has made up his mind about a Star Wars party. I’m not as crafty but I can be quite determined. Thanks for the inspiration! Your party looks fantastic.
The loans are important for people, which are willing to organize their company. By the way, it’s very comfortable to get a short term loan.
Thank you SOOO much for posting all your ideas! My son is going to have a wonderful Star Wars party thanks to you!
