Ammon LOVES Lego's. He loves reading Lego books, playing with Lego's, dreams of getting EVERY Lego set out there, so it seemed natural that he would want a Lego Party for his birthday. I scoured the Internet for fun Lego party ideas. We used some with our own tweaks, or just made them up on our own.
This picture was the inspiration for the cake. I asked Ammon to bring me a Lego figure that he wanted his cake to look like. This one won the prize.
When the kids got here, they each got a Lego 3-n-1 vehicle to build. Each decided which of the 3 vehicles to build.
The kids all really liked building their vehicles for the race.
We had some issues with some of the vehicles not wanting to stay together, so we only had one official race before moving on.
We played a Lego drop game. We collected a bucket of black wings and 2 empty pickle jars. The kids had 1 minute to drop the wings from the bench into the jar.
Then we played Angry Birds Lego figurine style. We set up 10 Lego figures on wood blocks for each kid, then gave the kids star marshmallows to flick at the figures. They had 1 minute to get them down. Rebecca got to throw her marshmallows since she hasn't learn to flick yet.
After some more active (LOUD) games we played a few rounds of Lego Bingo which I found here: http://www.howtocookthat.net/public_html/lego-party-games-more/ . There were lots of different bingo cards to print out. We used little Lego's as markers.
The Birthday boy and his friends.
The Birthday boy and his silly friends!
Remember that face picture from before-here it is on the cake. It took ALOT of yellow food coloring to get the perfect yellow Lego color frosting! Ammon and his friends really liked the cake. They all wanted to have an eye or mouth so they could get some black frosting.
I wanted to make a Lego pinata, but Ammon just wanted goodie bags. Each kid got to take home their Lego vehicle, a Lego party figurine and some candy. I found a Lego font that I used for the bag labels.
This was such a fun and energized party!! Happy 7th Birthday Ammon-we love you!!
