Throwing a kids’ birthday party can be stressful. Some things are supposed to be fun, but not when it comes to birthday parties. Here are some fun ideas that just might not suck. Everything is awesome with these fun LEGO Party Ideas. Enjoy LEGO Cakes, party decor, games, activities and more.

Is your child obsessed with Legos, scattering bricks everywhere as they build and create for hours? Are you looking for some creative ways to throw your kid a Lego-themed birthday party? You’ve come to the right place.

These 25 Lego birthday party ideas include everything from cake decorating ideas to games and favors, so there is something for everyone. Plus, they are all easy on the budget! You’ll be surprised at the super easy, affordable, and creative Lego party tips and tricks we’ve found.

These party ideas are sure to impress and delight any Lego lover!

Before you send out the invitations let’s first start with some amazing cakes with the brick or mini-figure theme.

Lego Birthday Cake Ideas

What could be more classic than the Lego bricks themselves? This brick cake looks just like the blocks and will be a huge hit at your Lego birthday party. Make the frosting any color you’d like, or create a couple of smaller cakes to make bricks in different colors. This cake is made with boxed cake mixes, which saves time preparing for the big day. | In Katrina’s Kitchen

Capture the look of Lego mini-figures in this fun Lego head cake. The fun thing about it is that you can give the head any expression you’d like! It’s easier than it looks to put together; it just requires some patience and time. She recommends using pre-colored fondant to get the bright yellow look. | Ashlee Marie

Really wow your party guests with this incredible Lego block cake that’s covered in colorful bricks and has a fun block design inside the cake as well. This is another cake that uses boxed cake mix to simplify things, which is terrific. Making the blocked colors inside is simple with a checkerboard cake pan set. | Pink When

Finally, if you’re more of a cupcake person, it couldn’t get simpler than these fun and easy Lego cupcakes with a candy melt brick on top or a LEGO minifigure. You can make them any color you’d like and put a bunch of cupcakes together in less than an hour. It’s the perfect idea for last-minute party planners. | Love from the Oven

Lego Party Food Ideas

Make some Lego cheese and crackers for a quick snack. They’re inexpensive to make, and kids will love them. All you need are crackers, cheese, and a small fondant cutter or knife to cut the circles. Easy peasy! | Tonya Staab

Want a healthy snack at your party? Look no further than these Lego frozen yogurt bricks made with fresh strawberries, blueberries, yogurt, and honey. Parents will be thankful to have one less sugary item available! | Surviving a Teacher’s Salary

Turn ordinary marshmallows into fun yellow Lego head marshmallow pops! Grab regular marshmallows, mini marshmallows, yellow candy melts, and lollipop sticks to get started on this simple tutorial for LEGO cake pops. They make great snacks for the party, adorable LEGO cake toppers or favors for after. | Savoring the Good

Serve up some yummy Lego brownies at the dessert table. Use brownie mix or grab a box or two of the Little Debbie brownies to put them together faster. | In the Kids Kitchen

Lego sandwiches are a breeze to make, too. Peanut butter and jelly sandwiches are popular with kids, but you can do the same thing with deli meat and cheese or even veggie sandwiches if you prefer. Just add the bread circles on top to make them look like bricks. They’d be a great addition to kids’ lunchboxes during the school year, too. | In the Playroom

You can never go wrong with Rice Krispie treats. These Lego Rice Krispie treats are so colorful and fun. Just top your usual recipe with the colorful icing and matching M&Ms to make the bricks. Gel food coloring yields the brightest colors, so make sure you grab gel instead of liquid food coloring. | The Soccer Mom Blog

These Lego cookies look scrumptious, and they’re made from scratch, so you know they’re extra yummy. However, you can probably recreate the idea with pre-made cookie dough and royal icing. | For Modern Kids

Who says you shouldn’t play with your food? These Lego build and play Jello snacks were meant for fun! Make them in all kinds of fruity flavors, and the kids can stick them high while enjoying a jiggly snack. | Passion for Savings

Lego Party Décor

For easy party décor, recycle your corn starch canisters to make some cute Lego heads with different faces. Since they’re already the perfect shade of yellow, there’s no painting involved. Just draw on the different facial expressions, and you’re good to go. Better yet, your kids can use these jars to store their Legos even after the party is over. | Organized 31

Build some of your décor out of Legos! It’s such a clever idea. You don’t have to think big… small items like building your own utensil and napkin holder can pack a big visual impact. To keep it permanently secure, add some hot glue and use forever to hold utensils, napkins or even future LEGO supplies and tableware. | Artsy-Fartsy Mama

Make giant Lego “bricks” with boxes, wrapping paper, and construction paper. You can also create Lego faces by drawing faces on yellow balloons. Both of these ideas are super easy and inexpensive, perhaps check out the Dollar Tree for your decorations! | Desert Chica

Head to the Dollar Store for construction paper supplies. Create a Lego bricks garland using construction paper, tape, a hole punch, and some string. How easy is that DIY LEGO banner? It’s a great way to create colorful party décor without a lot of effort. | A Crafty Spoonful

Lego Party Favors

Our Lego travel case makes an excellent party favor, and they’re not very expensive to put together. Just use discount pencil boxes and Lego tape along with some bricks inside, and you’ve got a fun activity that kids can take on the go and enjoy long after the party is over. | Frugal Coupon Living

Upcycle all your old broken crayons to make some fun Lego man crayons! Talk about inexpensive favors! Aside from purchasing the mold, the little LEGO crayons would be free! Everyone has their own minifigure to go. You can also use the mold to make chocolate Lego figures, too. | Mama Smiles

Use some bricks and colorful yarn to make Lego friendship bracelets for all the party guests. The kids can help make them, but they’ll need an adult to drill the holes in the bricks to run the yarn through. | Kids Activities

Lego Party Games and Activities

If you love LEGO party games, download and print our Building Brick Party games. Using many common supplies found around the house, including a lot of LEGO theme building bricks, enjoy twelve party games. These game ideas use a classic game (like a spoon relay race) and twist them into something LEGO-themed.

Every party needs some photo props and a backdrop to make pictures a little more fun! Making LEGO head photo props is super easy following this tutorial. | Moms and Crafters

For another LEGO party activity, kids will get a kick out of playing Pin the Head on the Lego Dude. It’s a free printable that you can grab for the party and set up in no time. You can use just paper and tape, but if you want the kids to be able to play this over and over, add Velcro tape to the backs of the Lego heads, and place the body on a large piece of felt. That way, it’ll be easy for kids to stick the head on while they’re blindfolded. | Paper Trail Design

Play a game of Lego ball toss to keep the kids entertained! Just cut two or three holes in the top of a painted box for the kids to toss tennis balls into. It’s easy enough for all ages to play, as you can adjust for age by putting the younger kids closer and the older kids further back. Check out the other party ideas here, too. This blogger threw a Lego party for just $17! | Sweet Frugal Life

Set up this Lego race track before the party, and let the kids build their own cars out of bricks and accessories. Then, put those cars to the speed test on the race track. The kids are sure to play this game over and over. | Tonya Staab

This Lego bean bag toss is another fun game the kids can play. This game board is made from a box, and you can make simple bean bags using felt. You don’t need to be a pro at stitching to sew simple bean bags, but you could even use fabric glue if you prefer. | East Coast Mommy

It just wouldn’t be a Lego party without a building challenge, would it? Grab this printable challenge and build a spinner out of Lego pieces to make it extra fun. Give it a spin, set a timer, and see who can build the challenge item the fastest (or the best). | Artsy-Fartsy Mama

Print these Words for the Wee Hours. Challenge shower guests to make their own, but you can display yours on a clothes line with clothes pins. Vote on the funniest sayings or the phrases that make mom laugh the most at the little tinkle notes. This is not only fun, it gives the mama a pack of diapers – talk about a diaper changing need – plus it’s encouragement in the middle of the night as mama (and dada) care for the new baby! Now I am dying for a friend to have a baby so I can gift these messages.

Name that Baby

Name that Baby from DIY Network and TomKat Studio. Have each guest bring a baby photo of themselves. Post the photos on a board along with a printed number. Throughout the shower, guests can study the board and take a prediction at who is the precious baby doll in each photo. Have an answer key and review answers at the end of the event. The shower guest with the most correct answers, wins the trivia game. Up to 12 guests.

The Price Is Right

The Price is Right from Tula Mama. Set up a table with the baby item listed on this sheet. Have guests fill out their card with their best guesses for the price of each item like a pack of diapers, baby wipes, baby bottles, baby food and more. The person with the closest price of each item scores one point. The guest with the most points is a winner and wins a prize.

He Said, She Said

He Said, She Said from Unoriginal Mom. Just like the classic bridal shower game, is this fact about mommy or daddy. Pick up the free printable lips and mustache as well as the header for the fun game. But personalize for yourself in a Word Document.

Candy Bar Game

How Sweet It Is from Lil Luna. Well this is fun. When playing this game, you can have a jar of candy around. Fill out the matching pregnancy term to the candy bar. For example, girls name would be Baby Ruth. Have a basket of candy bars mentioned in the game. Most likely, everyone will have these answers right, so give he bar to who shares the answer with the group when going over results.

Baby ABCs

Baby ABCs from PJs and Paint. Ready, set, go. You are timed trying find a baby related item that begins with each letter of the alphabet. If there are repeat letters (like two people choose diapers for D) a point is not awarded. Person with the most points at the end wins. Make sure your words are unique and baby related! Twist it up: play with a ticket. Unique ideas get a raffle tickets. At the end of the shower, you can draw raffle tickets for a fun prize!

What’s In Your Phone?

Mother’s day handprint crafts can be made at home or even in the classroom. In fact, we all can agree a baby handprint and toddler handprint are the most precious thing of all.

So let’s get started. Learn the best paint for making handprint art and then download and enjoy these adorable handprint mother’s day printable cards.

What kind of paint do you use for handprint art?

When making handprint art for mother’s day, it’s important to have the right paint. Especially if you want your product to last a long time. First you must answer the question, what medium is the handprint art going on. Once you have determined if you are using wood, paper, or canvas, you can then determine the paint source. You also want to use a non-toxic, organic paint as you are applying it to your child’s hand.

The following paints can be used on the following sources…

Paper or Cardstock: A non-toxic washable tempera paint will easily stick to paper.

Canvas: Acrylic paint labelled non-toxic is safe to use.

Wood: Milk paint is made of natural ingredients making it the safest choice.

Drywall: Choose a non-toxic interior paint commonly found at Home Depot, Benjamin Moore or Sherwin Williams.

It is important to wash hands (feet/fingers) immediately after the print is created.

Is there a trick to getting handprint art smudge-free?

Getting the perfect handprint can be a challenge. A few tricks to help a smaller child create a handprint without smudging. Follow these five tips when creating kids’ handprint art for mom.

Tip 1: Have the right paint. When using paper, the best paint for easy clean-up is a non-toxic washable tempera paint.

Tip 2: Use distraction. If you can get an adult or older kids to help you, distract the child while you go through the motions of painting their hand and applying it to the paper. If you do not have as second helper, use an electronic or television to quickly deter their eyes.

Tip 3: Give the handprint artwork a few test runs. Print out extra copies of the mother’s day cards and practice with your little hands.

Tip 4: Use a paintbrush to evenly paint on hand and footprints. Remove excess paint before applying the child’s hand to the printable or canvas.

Tip 5: Lay down the hand very slowly and carefully. Start with laying down the pinky and slowly rolling the hand down on the paper until you hit the thumb. Once all the fingers and palm are placed, press your finger tips above the child’s handprint to ensure no part of the child’s hand is not applied to the paper. When you are ready to lift the handprint off, do this in a reverse motion. Slowly peeling the paper back from the child’s hand.

Give yourself grace. Sometimes the most adorable children’s hand prints artwork is found is in the mistakes. Then years down the road, small smudge might remind the gift receiver of a once-upon-a-time wiggly toddler.

Mother’s Day Handprint Art

The best mother’s day gifts begin with a handprint (footprint or fingerprint.) We put together an adorable Mother’s Day Cart printable set that displays these adorable sticky hands. In our printable Mother’s Day Handprint Keepsake Art set, we use all three prints.

These crafts can be made at home and are perfect for the preschool classroom. Choose the color of your choice. Guide preschoolers and younger kids as they hand their hand down. Allow them to add their name and have fun making these adorable children’s hand print and keepsake art.

Handprint Art Gift Tips

To preserve your handprint artwork for mom, consider laminating the project with an at home thermal laminator. Test a dry piece of art before laminating all your projects. It important to choose a low-heat setting.

You can also head to the Dollar Store and pick up low cost photo frames. If you don’t like the color of the picture frame, use a quick drying spay paint to change the color to match your mother’s day gift color palette.

If you need a quick drying tip on your printable art, apply thin coats of paint. Once the art is complete, place the papers to dry in an area with circulating air. You can also use a heater or hair dryer.
