Building Blocks Birthday Party

Party Invitations

• Make do-it-yourself invitations or choose from many construction-themed choices online or at party stores. This is a popular party theme and your child probably has favorites, whether it’s a kids’ television show like Bob the Builder™ or an age-specific Lego® series
• Encourage guests to dress in jeans—what else—and t-shirts in primary colors.

Party Decorations

• Primary colors—especially construction sign yellow—reinforce the building blocks theme, as do block shapes. Choose squares for paper plates, for example. You’ll find lots of choices online or at party stores.
• Let blocks, building brick constructions or construction vehicles take center stage a table decor.
• Think of fun ways to serve snacks or package take-home treats. A party held outside would be perfect served from lunch pails or individual coolers. Drinks can be served from a thermos

Party Games & Activities

• Have plenty of blocks and building bricks for partygoers to play with as guests arrive! Depending on age of children, have them construct table decorations individually or together.
• Inspire older children with construction activities found online like those at the Lego® website.
• Use blocks to create contests—tallest stack, best construction made while blindfolded, fastest specific construction while wearing construction gloves. You get it!

Food Fun & Favors

• Fill toy trucks with Load 'n Go Gorp as shown to serve at party or as take-home treats.
• Make and decorate easy cutout cookies using construction-themed cutters, like hammers, saws, screwdrivers, and package for take-home treats. Use easy Betty Crocker® sugar cookie mix and a recipe like Confetti Christmas Cutout Cookies for inspiration.
