Crafting is one of our favorite ways to celebrate Star Wars Day—especially when it involves paint, paper, and a bit of creativity. These crafts are a mix of free printable activities and fun kits we’ve loved using ourselves or discovered from other creative sites.
This free printable set includes six designs featuring characters like Darth Vader and Han Solo. We've used them for keepsakes, decorations, and even cards—they’re simple enough for younger kids but still fun for older fans, too.
Great for quiet time, this kit lets kids (and adults) create Baby Yoda and other characters with colorful Perler-style beads. My son loved how hands-on and detailed it was.
This paint set featuring Baby Yoda figurines was a huge hit. It’s a fun project for kids who like adding their own twist to characters they already know and love.
This activity combines crafting with play—kids can fold and fly Star Wars-themed paper airplanes. Great for indoor downtime or quick creative breaks.
This is an adorable free craft that’s super easy to prep. We made these for May the 4th one year and they were a big hit with friends.
Simple supplies like paint and paper plates turn into a cool Death Star design. It’s a great low-mess craft that still feels creative and fun.
This printable R2D2 is perfect for younger kids who want to cut, glue, and create their own droid. Just grab scissors, colored paper, and glue to bring it to life.
Best Star Wars Books for Kids
After a busy day of lightsaber battles and themed printables, we like to wind down with a few Star Wars books. These are our personal favorites—and ones we’ve actually read and enjoyed.
5 Minute Star Wars Stories. This has been a go-to for years. The short format is perfect when we’re winding down before bed or just want a quick story that still feels adventurous.
Star Wars: A Jedi You Will Be. I originally picked this one up for the beautiful illustrations, but it quickly became a favorite. Yoda’s advice is simple and meaningful—great for younger kids still learning about courage and perseverance.
Star Wars Character Encyclopedia. We’ve used this so many times for fun reading and even writing prompts. It’s packed with visuals and cool details about characters that go beyond the main movies—great for curious fans who want to know everything.
