When my boys have wanted entertainment for the last few months, they’ve been watching more YouTube than they have regular shows and cartoons. On the one hand, I’m happy that the two of them have found something they both enjoy, despite their three year age difference. On the other hand, I’d like to see them watching something with a little more of a plot. Luckily, Disney DVD recently gave me the perfect alternative that both my boys love: LEGO Star Wars: Droid Tales on DVD! Here’s a brief synopsis of the disc:

The fun begins following the victory celebration in the Ewok village on Endor, at the end of Star Wars: Return of the Jedi. R2-D2 and C-3PO have gathered to regale Luke, Leia, Han, Chewbacca and the other Rebels with the tales of their adventures that led to the events of Star Wars: The Phantom Menace. An accidental kidnapping occurs when the droids are reminiscing, and suddenly you’re taken on a new journey that leads to the retelling of the entire Star Wars saga, as told by R2-D2 and C-3PO!
