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.

STAR WARS LUNCH-BAGS: SUMMER 2016 SEASON -- Thumbs Up BB-8 and Baby BB-8

First day of camp, 2016 - FORCE AWAKENS was still fresh in our brains.  So the boys each got a BB-8 lunch-bag. Kyle got "Thumbs up for camp!" and Wes got what he asked for: He asked for a "Baby BB-8" and I threw in the little "Baby 8" crying in the background.

BB-8 says "Thumbs Up for Camp!
