Lego Ninjago Birthday Party!

Connor celebrated his 7th birthday this week.  He wanted a Lego Ninjago theme this year.  There really isn't much out in the stores for this theme, so I created a few simple items for his party.  He had his "friend" party at the bowling alley in town.  All of the boys had a great time - they all have a lot of energy!!

Lego Birthday Party!

Connor turned 6 on Monday!  I can't believe he is 6 already - wow time sure does fly.  He celebrated his birthday with school friends on Saturday afternoon, then we had another little party with some family on Saturday night.  Finally, on his "real" birthday we had another little party with some more family!  Talk about crazy and busy, but Connor sure did feel special and loved. 

He wanted a Lego birthday party this year.  I made Lego brick invites, borrowed a Lego cake pan and mini lego minifigure molds from my sister.  I bought red, blue and yellow plates.  Filled treat bags with Lego stickers, Lego Minifigures and candy.   I ended up making 3 cakes and a set of cupcakes for his treat for school.  Connor had a wonderful birthday!

Lego Birthday Invite!

Connor is turning six on the 21st, so we have been planning his very first "friend" party.  He loves Lego's, so we are going to do a Lego themed party this year.  Instead of buying invites, I thought I would try making our own.  I searched the web and found many ideas.  I adapted one of the ideas and it was really fun and easy to make!!  It seemed like every search I did for Lego Birthday invites showed some sort of version of this invite! 
Lego Birthday Invite - Cut a rectangle out of bright colored cardstock and round the corners.  Cut  4 circles out of the same color cardstock and adhere with raised, mounting squares.  Either print the word Lego on the cardstock circles or print the word out on clear mailing labels and trim to size.  Stick the trimmed mailing labels to the circles.  Print out birthday party information and  attach to the back of the Lego Invitation!
Materials Needed:  cardstock (any bright color, make sure you have enough for the block and the 4 circles on each block), scissors, square mounting labels, clear mailing labels or printer and computer to print the word Lego on the cardstock
