Star Wars Lunch Bag: A description

Star Wars Lunch Bag: A description

Star Wars lunch bags were something I started for my eldest son when he began Summer Camp in 2009. It was something special that I could do for him each day. It also acted as an ice-breaker, a conversation piece between my son, the camp staff and the other campers. Now, I've got two boys in camp, so it's double the quota. Each night I draw up pictures, usually something "Star Wars-y" on the next day's lunch bags. It can be any thing: a ship, a character, a mash-up, or whatever ( I do take requests.) It's something fun for them to discover each morning. And, it's a reminder of me, their Dad, when they are off having fun at camp.
In years past, most of the bags were kept by the camp staff. But, so far this year, the boys have been bringing them home to keep for themselves.

Some of the bags turn out fairly decent. And others, perhaps, not as successful or artistically satisfying. But, in the end, it's all for fun - theirs... and mine.

"HALO" - MASTER CHIEF - Lunch-Bag - 2012


"HALO" - MASTER CHIEF was a request from my son for the first day of camp this year. The first Non-Star Wars lunch-bag. He discovered the HALO Mega-bloks toys this past year - (LEGO knock-off blocks that do not connect, or stay together as well as 'real' LEGO. Very disappointing stuff!) Needless to say, he thinks they are cooler than his LEGO 'cause the video game is rated M for Mature. A game and game system we do not own, I might add.  I had to find images from the web to work from. The geometry of the suits are very complex. I did what I could with my Sharpie's and pencil crayons.  He liked it.
