Who else is excited for Force Friday on September 4th?! Force Friday is when all the toys, collectibles, books and apparel for Star Wars: The Force Awakens will be released. Many stores will be opening their doors at midnight and in Star Wars land, it’s a pretty big deal. Living with two big Force fanatics, my husband and son, I’m sure I’ll be “forced” to participate in the festivities. I might even break out my R2D2 fun run costume.
In honor of Force Friday, we created Star Wars Galaxy Slime! I’ve tested out quite a few slime recipes and this is by far my favorite and so easy to make! Add in a few glow in the dark stars and play with the slime in a dark room with a black light for a fun effect. My 5 year old loved incorporating his Star Wars characters into his slime play. Yes, that is Darth Vader battling his younger self. According to Logan, that could happen. May the #ForceFriday be with you!
