Bright Suns Kari,
Welcome! I’m Ashley, a Human-droid relations specialist for planDisney. I’m super excited to be answering your question about my favorite Walt Disney World Resort activity,
Savi’s Workshop-Handbuilt Lightsabers.
The Force must be strong with your family since you have two Padawans who will soon be wielding a lightsaber. At Savi’s Workshop-Handbuilt Lightsabers, they will get an opportunity to assemble their own custom Lightsaber in Savi’s covert Black Spire workshop. The Gatherers spend a lot of time carefully curating and salvaging scraps to create your unique hilts, making the experience unforgettable. Best of all, both your son and daughter will get to experience it together. I spoke to a Gatherer this morning, and they confirmed that at least one person per party would need to be at least 14 years old. So you or your husband would need to accompany your daughter while she builds her Lightsaber. The entire experience is more than just assembling a Lightsaber; it is also an incredible mini-show. So whoever escorts your daughter will enjoy the experience just as much. I believe that nothing captures a moment in time better than a photograph. So while your two Jedi-in-training assemble their hilts, you or your husband can capture the experience for them to hold on to forever.
One last thing, both of your Padawans can have one non-building Guest with them. I know that your children will enjoy having the experience of creating their custom Lightsabers! So both you and your husband can be a part of the moment if you would like.
I look forward to having them join the Jedi order with my fellow Jedi and me.
Til the Spires!
Ashley F.
