By putting your own spin on classic carnival games, you can create an unforgettable party that your guests will be talking about for years to come.

Get started planning your carnival party today with these amazing tips.

How do you plan a carnival party?

Planning a carnival themed party is actually a lot of fun, but there are some things you’ll want to consider BEFORE you have the party. The budget is always important. Most people don’t think a carnival party can be affordable. It actually can be with the right planning and prep ahead of time.

When it comes to a circus themed party, plan the venue space, your party decorations, the number of guests, types of carnival booths, and of course your entertainment. Don’t worry, I have plenty of carnival birthday party ideas to share with you soon. Here is how to plan and affordable circus party that is a ton of fun for your birthday guy or gal!

Carnival Party Theme Ideas

Before we begin with the party entertainment, let’s chat about the party organization. When planning a circus party, there are a few things you need to get in place before the fun and games. Make sure you have the right circus party invite, create a list of carnival party food, and choose the best location for a carnival birthday party.

Create Fun Invitations

Welcome to the big top! Your invitations set the tone for your party, so make sure they’re fun and festive! You can find some great carnival-themed invitations online, or you can get creative and make your own.

In this day and age, I especially appreciate an Evite to keep record of who is coming or a digital carnival birthday party invitation.

Choose the Location

If you’re having the party outdoors, you’ll want to make sure you have enough space for all of your games and activities. If you’re having the party indoors, choose a location that has high ceilings so you can hang decorations from the ceiling and have enough room for balls to be thrown and party booths to fit.

Gather Everything You Need

Now that you know where the party is going to be and who is coming, it’s time to start gathering everything you need.

Supplies Include:

Carnival games
Prizes for the winners of the carnival games
Carnival food (like these easy popcorn cupcakes)

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

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.

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

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

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

Follow these hosting ideas and tips to create a festive atmosphere to your holiday entertaining.

We decided to step up our Hosting Tips and Tricks and share more ideas about Hosting a Christmas Party! Of course, combine the ideas from both posts to create the ultimate Christmas party!

Don’t host a party, without setting the setting with a Holiday Stovetop Scent. This fall simmer pot recipe rolls over into Christmas well too. Consider adding a couple drops of Pine Essential Oils. You can also see our Holiday Essential Oil Blends.

Don’t forget the music. Music will set your party theme. It doesn’t have to be loud but create a festive holiday atmosphere with an Amazon Music playlist (get a free Amazon Music trial for the party.) Either add the songs to create your own party playlist or use one of their many suggest Christmas Party Music Playlists. Use a bluetooth speaker or Amazon Echo Dot.

One stress free hosting hack is to get all your bowls and utensils out days before. Label where each dish and food will go so you know what you still need to borrow from family or a friend. | Pioneer Woman

Add color and a pop to your Christmas party tablescape by adding these candy cane place card markers. | Janine Ngai for LittleThings

Speaking of place markers, in our Wine and Cheese Party Ideas, we have have free printable cheese markers. A great low cost Christmas Party Idea is to offer snacks instead of dinner.

What better way to spend time together than to plan a night of fun laughing while you play a game of Christmas Scattergories? It’s a classic game with a ho-ho-holiday twist I know you’ll love!

What is Scattergories?

Scattergories is a game of wits and words. In the game there are categories that players must think of answers to, but the twist is every answer begins with the same letter as your category. For example: Christmas songs that have names that begin with S.

The game can be made more difficult for adults (think songs with three-syllables) or easier for younger players. Players that are younger will usually think of simple answers like Silent Night and Santa Claus is Coming to Town, but the older players may come up with songs such as Simply Having a Wonderful Christmas Time and Sleigh Ride.

Scattergories is a fantastic game for people of all ages. The best part? You can play it anywhere. It’s an easy go-to game that can be pulled out during any holiday gathering or on a long car ride. It’s accessible for almost anyone and offers hours of fun!

Playing Scattergories on Christmas

The holidays are one of the best times to play Scattergories. Everyone is already in the spirit, so it will be easy to come up with unique Christmas-themed answers. Some examples of categories are:

Things that are red
Holiday Christmas movie
Foods you eat on holidays
Christmas song
Words associated with the North Pole
Gifts to give friends and family members

There are so many ways to play Scattergories, especially when it comes to themed editions. You could grab a blank set of paper and create some of your own. Roll an alphabet die to come up with the starting letter of the alphabet.

Christmas Scattergories Game Rules & How To Play

This classic game is much like the original except for a few festive twists. Here are the rules to get your party started:

There are five pages with different Christmas words on them. You can either paly five different rounds or if you’re looking for a quick game, break the pages up into sets and play one at a time.

Hand each guest a copy of the Christmas-themed words to use in the game. Using a a timer, set a time limit for game play. Players will think of words that fit the description on the left and also match the letter of the alphabet at the top of the column.

Once the time is up, the fun begins when each player shares their words for each topic. If an answer is voted not to be a good answer, they lose that point. The player with the most blanks filled with accepted answers wins the round!

Scattergories Christmas Game Words List:

Santa
Candy
Sled
North
Frost

This game is great for all ages. It makes a fun, uproarious Christmas party game and works well for students during a classroom party. This printable game is a perfect addition for last minute entertainment for your family’s Christmas dinner or December birthday party.
