Last week my daughter had a playdate with a four-year-old friend and it blew my mind that he was drawing Darth Vader and Princess Leia figures on the sidewalk with chalk. (Actually, I was less blown away by the Princess Leia which was pretty easy with those big ovals where her ears might be.) It seems the next generation has discovered my generationโ€™s sci-fi classic, and if you need any proof, check out the awesome childโ€™s Star Wars cape at Little Dudes Only.

Also check out the number of boys in your kidโ€™s school named Luke.

I totally love this cape which fits kidsโ€™ sizes 2-8, but one complaint would be that a Star Wars cape is not only for little dudes. I think my daughter would look just great in one with her very own paper towel roll lightsaber. โ€“Liz
