Lego Party

I enjoyed planning Trevor’s 6th Birthday Lego party. So many possibilities with this theme!

The invitations:

I printed out the party info and glued the info on the inside of the card.

The Party Plan:

1. Guess how many Legos in a jar

2. Eat pizza, fruit, snacks, and drink juice boxes

3. We sit in a circle and count the Legos that were in the jar. Closest guess gets a prize.

4. Lego Hunt in Basement

5. Candles, Sing Happy B-day, Eat Cake and Ice Cream

6. Open Gifts

7. If extra time, Hot Potato or Hokey Pokey
(we didn’t end up playing either of these because the kids spent time playing with random toys and games that were in our toy bins)

Descriptions of the activities:

Guessing Jar Game:
I filled an empty plastic peanut butter jar with Legos. A few minutes after each child arrived, I showed them individually the jar full of Legos. I asked them to guess how many were inside, wrote down their guess, and told them we’d count them later.

After eating the birthday party meal, I told all of the kids to sit down in a circle on the floor and we’d count the Legos. We put them into piles of tens and leftovers and there ended up being 61.

The closest guess got a Lego car Trevor made as the prize.

Lego Hunt
This Lego Hunt was similar to an Easter egg hunt, except we hid the Legos all over our basement and the Legos weren’t in eggs. We gave each child a baggie with their name on it to put their Legos in. The kids enjoyed searching for all of the Legos. Then, we put their baggie full of Legos in their goodie bag with their other goodies.

Goodie Bags
Bags with Lego stickers, suckers, Lego-shaped candy, and their ziplocs full of Legos.

For my daughter’s 4th birthday in August, she’s said she wants to do a “Lego Friends” theme. Sure!
