The first step to any party is the invitations. We used THIS idea, including the printable.
Then the party itself! We played a few different games....basically I showed my son the various blogs and resources and let him choose the games he was most interested in (and that I could manage!)
My personal favorite idea was to supply small lego kits with wheels. This was in place of the goody bags. The kids began by choosing a kit and building it. Then we raced them! We replaced a closet door a few weeks ago and had the old one just laying around, so that was our race track! (and yes, I kinda sacrificed my couch for this!)
My husband printed this poster on four separate pages, and we just taped it together. You can see it better in the last photo on this post.
This game was a bucket full of legos, kids split into two teams, got a spoon full of legos and ran it across the room to see which team could fill up another bucket first. WOW, was I glad we did this indoors!
This game required us to pick out tiny legos a head of time. The kids then used straws to suck on and pick up lego pieces and make their own piles. I gave them 3 minutes to see how many they could get.
This game was like a circle-story, but it was a circle creation. I started by taking 4 legos and putting them together randomly, and then passed it around the circle, each kid adding 4 legos. Who knows what we ended up with, but they seemed to enjoy this one too.
These lego candies were the prizes!
a happy birthday boy, whose lego stash possibly doubled!
and while we waited for parents, we stuck in a lego Star Wars movie!
And the party crew - minus one kiddo who was late.
Lego Birthday Party: Success!
