My son’s Lego Birthday Party was so much fun! I’m happy to share our fun day with you!
Everyone loved the Fun Party Printables I designed myself by taking photos of my son’s favorite Lego designs! Each boy carefully chose their favorite figurine cupcake toppers when it was time for cake!

Fun Food Ideas
I made Lego crackers by cutting small circles out of cheese with my cake frosting tips and attaching them to crackers with cream cheese. But the most popular treat was the cheap cheese balls! That giant vase was gone very fast.
And of course these Lego Cake Pops were a big hit and later made all over the world for boy’s parties:-)
I put them in a bucket full of M&M’s, my favorite candy for decorating. Get directions for making Lego Cake Pops here.
Mr. Cool had a custom-made birthday shirt with coordinating party colors! I found a cheap shirt at Walmart and made this myself.
Lego Party Games
I started the party by having small Lego kits for the boys to put together until everyone showed up. First they got to make mini figurines by choosing their head, body and weapon!
I also had a jar full of Lego bricks and they had to guess how many to win a prize.
Then it was time for outside games. We started with a Lego Relay Race!
- I had yellow and red legos mixed in a bowl, each boy selected a Lego to find out what team they were on. So it was Yellow vs. Red! Which my son named Mario Blasters (Red) and Bowser Monsters (Yellow). (Don’t ask me what those names mean??! ha!)
- Then I put the Lego bricks in bowls by color and placed them at the end of the yard. Each team got a spoon and an empty bowl at the starting point.
- The goal was to run to the Lego bowl, grab a Lego and run back with the Lego in a spoon and drop it in the empty bowl. The team who filled their bowl first and ran through the finish line won a medal! If they dropped the Lego, they had to start over. It was fun and everyone ended up getting a medal!
Then it was out to the front yard for a Lego Hunt.
I chose 5 colors of Lego bricks and the fewer colors like blue were worth more points. So once they found all of the Legos, they had to do the math to see what their points were. The kid with the most points won a prize!
It’s never a party at our house without a piñata! I enlarged one of my cupcake toppers for this custom piñata.
The boys had a blast!
The little sisters had a blast too! To entertain them, I had a bowl of water on a kid table outside with small sponges, droppers and cups. Then paint brushes and paint with water paint books. Girls are easy to entertain!
This was a very easy, laid back party and my son felt extra special that day!
The only thing I made from scratch was the Lego Cake Pops and Lego Crackers. Cupcakes and yummy Lemon Cakes were from Sam’s Club. I only wish I could make the icing look that good myself!!
I hope you enjoyed this Lego Birthday Party Inspiration!
Love it! Where did you have the custom t-shirt made?
I love your Lego party ideas! My son Grant really wants a Lego Candle like the one you have on your cupcakes. I was just curious if you made that yourself or if you ordered it somewhere?
Great idea! Congratulations!
These are adorable and SO creative! I am just wondering if you’ve had any problems with copyright issues from Lego?
I was wondering if you sell the template for the lego birthday shirt as well, thanks.
I am so excited to use your printables for my son’s birthday party! Where did you get that great t-shirt for him? did you use those iron-ons with your printable design? Thank you!
I am so in love with these printables!! We were already planning my son’d lego party when I found all these goodies!! The invitations alone made it worth it.
Quick question – what do you print the water bottle labels on? Did you prnt on lable sheets or just regular paper and tape/glue them on the bottles?
Thanks!!
hi there,
love your photos of your party. how did you make your pinata? i tried searching your site and google but no luck.
thanks,

Having a Lego party for my son’s 8th birthday. Just made these Lego pops and they turned out great. Decided to go the easy route and use marshmallows, so they quick (quicker) and easy (well, easier) and fun. And they turned out great too! Thanks for sharing your ideas!!
That is such a lovely idea, and the photos are gorgeous. thanks so much for inspiring me with your ideas!
Good blog and good party decoration supplies, i really like it. Good going man, best of luck for the future.
You have just made my day! Thank you for the wonderful Lego party inspiration! My son is Lego-mad and I am giving him a Lego party this year and your ideas are so fabulous! Thank you for sharing them! Vxx
This is REALLY cool. my son would LOVe it!

I just purchased your Lego Birthday kit and we are so excited. We just moved and we are inviting all the boys in the class so I can meet all of them. I went on the Lego.com through the Pick a Brick. I was able to get all the coordinated minifigures for all the boys. Thank you!
I LOVE your Lego party!!! Thanks for the great ideas!! I can’t wait to make the Lego pops :))
I am throwing a Lego party this saturday for my son’s 7th b-day party and your printables are going to look perfect. I spent the last two weeks going to party stores and researching ideas. Finally I found your website…I love it. Thankyou…you saved me a ton of money and gave me some great ideas.
I just purchased the Lego party set and my son loves it! He is so excited to have his party next month. It is perfect since his favorite color is orange. I was wondering where or how you made the pinata? I would love one too- if you get a chance. Thanks again!
When I click your RSS feed it gives me a bunch of trash, is the issue on my end?
AMAZING!!! my lil guys bday is this saturday, we are not having a party for him because he wants to go to legoland! guess what kind of party he is getting next year!!! (is there a deadline for when I need to purchase your lego party files?? do they become unavailable after a certain amount of time??) you did a fantastic job! I am a new fan!

K…Now how did you make the Pinyata?
I love your ideas! I am going to be purchasing your printable’s and I was wondering where do I get the Mini figurines? Thanks for sharing your cute Ideas!
Thanks, Brooke
I’m throwing a LEGO party for my son! Where did you have the shirt printed?? I love it!! Any help you have would be awesome!
Thanks!

I loved your Lego party!
Last year my son wanted a mad scientist party and I found you online. I made the cupcakes and they were adorable. This year he wants a Star Wars Lego party. I thought I’d check your site again, and sure enough you have some great Lego party ideas. I think I’m going to have to try the Lego head pops. Those are amazing! Thanks for the creative inspiration.
If I get brave I may try to use the mad scientist cupcake technique to make a darth vader cupcake. Wish me luck.
Hi, is it possible to purchase only the LEGO bookmark printables from you? I am having a LEGO party for my son this weekend and just came across your awesome site. I already have invitations etc but would LOVe to include the bookmarks as party favors.
Thanks!

@Aimee @ HomeSpun-Threads,
Thanks! Have a great party and email photos:-)
I just purchased your downloads…I’m in LOVE. Thank you, I wanted to do a Lego theme but didn’t see anything I liked until now AND I really wanted to do cupcakes instead of a lego cake so this will be easy. I also purchased candy molds, if you haven’t see them…they are really cool.
Amy, where did you find the mini figures for the boys to put together?? I’m going to use this theme for my son’s 4th birthday in November. He LOVES lego anything. 🙂
Thank you so much for providing the theme and tips!!!
Just wondering how you got the lego man to hold the candle on the cupcake?
I love the theme but was wondering if it’s available in primary colors? I’ve already purchased quite a bit in the primary colors. Wish I would have seen this first. Any way to change up the colors?
I just have to say that i can’t stop thinking about my son’s lego party, nevermind that it’s not until November! I will be purchasing your logo party the closer it gets to the party, it’s not going anywhere is it? Such a cute idea and my son can’t wait either!

Fun party! I love your printables. I am having a Lego party for my son soon and these may be just what I was looking for. His one request is a pinata. Did you make your own, or do you have a source you could share for the custom pinata?
this is so so so awesome! I love it!

I love it, Amy! We’re pretty Lego obsessed over here. To the point of having to pay a visit to Lego Land for the boys’ birthday later this year. But I think a Lego party is must, after seeing your pictures.

You so totally rock! What a great party! Love the paper goods. I did a Lego party 10 years ago for my oldest. I wish I would have had these cool things 🙂
What a great party!! Everything looks amazing… and I’m sure the boys all had such a blast. 🙂

@Sandy @ The Mommys Place,
Have you searched Etsy.com? If I see something, I’ll let you know.
Loved this party! We did a few Lego parties ourselves this year. They are the best! I LOVED your cake pops! Sooo cute! Who doesn’t love a Lego party?

How cute I love it Amy. I am wanting to do a Barney Theme for my 2 yr old but having trouble finding any printable for purchase or otherwise. Do you have any suggestions for me? Thanks in advance.

AWESOME Amy!! What a blast!!! So fun and creative.
I came to your shop first when I was looking (very belatedly) for a baby shower package of printables. I love your ideas and graphics! I may have to hire you if we end up having a bday party for midget this year. Baby #2 is due right around her bday, so we might need to forego a party this year.

Oh, I love this! My son’s birthday falls on Father’s Day this year, so we’re having a double party. I see much here that would be fun for both of my guys 🙂
Those lego cake pops are a riot! Fabulous job!
What fun!

Looks like lots of fun. Last year we used all your ideas for my son’s science party. This year, it might be Lego’s. He wants to have it at our new lego store, but I think it would be more fun at home! Thanks for the inspiration!
