A bunch of my blogger friends are out in LA right now for the major Star Wars: The Force Awakens Press Trip and man am I wishing I was there. But, since I am not I will live vicariously through folks like The Rock Father and Merlot Mommy. Plus I’ll be following the hashtag #StarWarsEvent on Twitter for some up to the minute news about the trip. Plus if I can dig up some questions I’ll tweet them to my friends so that they can ask the cast. Back on the homefront we’ll print out some of these fun activity pages that you can download right now by clicking the image and print the pages on your own. They are coloring pages and much more.

Did You Get Your Star Wars Google Cardboard?

BB-8 Google Cardboard

I ran over to Verizon today to pick up the new Star Wars themed Google Cardboard. When I went in to the store I ran into my friend Brian from Built From Bricks. We talked for a bit and then I got my own Google Cardboard. I chose the BB-8 one. There were some R2-D2 ones, Stormtrooper ones and Kylo Ren ones. They were out of the Kylo Ren ones so I took BB-8. It is a pretty great little device. I got it for free because I am a Verizon subscriber.

When I finally got a chance to try out Google Cardboard I took a tour around our solar system. The app that I used was Titans of Space – Cardboard VR. So as you use this you are flying from planet to planet and learning some basic facts about each one. It was very cool. I later installed the Star Wars app and there is a little feature in that one called Jakku Spy where there will be plenty of little updates leading up to the new movie which I will be seeing two weeks from today.
