Review: LEGO® STAR WARS: The New Yoda Chronicles!

Star Wars The New Yoda Chronicles

We received a copy of the LEGO® STAR WARS: The New Yoda Chronicles! DVD to watch and review. I even did a giveaway of the DVD. With the kids starting to become more knowledgeable of Star Wars they are also becoming more excited to see more Star Wars content. I like the way that these particular chronicles are done. With the characters in the LEGO style and the jokes very referential to the movies, the cartoon series , The Clone Wars and more we get a humorous ride through a familiar landscape. I’m eager to watch the whole thing with Eva. Andrew s a little harder to get to sit and watch unless it is a show he chooses. He’s not quite there with this series yet… yet. I have a feeling that as he gets older and is exposed to more Star Wars, including all the LEGO sets that I have in the basement ready for the kids to unbox and play with (when they are a little older) then Andrew is going to love this series and enjoy the fun of it.

For now he can enjoy the Coloring Activity Pages and some of the humor. But later, he’s certainly going to enjoy it like the rest of the family.
