Dump everything and join the crew for this set of Construction Party Ideas. When preparing for this bulldozer birthday party, a hard hat is required! 

Under Construction Party Ideas

Under Construction Party Ideas

In October we had my son’s second birthday. I was sure it was going to be a Thomas the Train party and so we purchased the most adorable  2 year old train shirt. In addition to my purchase, I did amazing research on making the perfect train party. I tend to do that. Posts that go up on my blog are because we are moving and I need moving hacks or because I am expecting a baby after a big gap in my children and need reminders of newborn tips. I digress…

The Construction Cake

So my son’s two year old birthday rolled around and after purchasing our train shirt, I went on a hunt to find the most appropriate cake at our grocery store (I am frugal, I wasn’t headed to a stand alone bakery.) The train cakes were not cute, so we settled on a bulldozer cake and thus our party went from a cute little train theme to a  Constriction Party with a precious little boy in a train shirt!… I am proud to say, I didn’t care!

Now that the party is behind us, I decided to go ahead and get that Construction Themed Birthday Party on the blog because getting things done late work when you are mother of five!

Set the table! If you’re on the lookout for ways to set and dress up your buffet table, then you’ve got to check this one out. This is one cool Construction Dessert Table! | 2 Little Love Birds

Welcome the crew with a homemade wreath made out of an orange extension cord. | Nestling Designs

Offer everyone relief with this Porta Potty Bathroom Door Printable – download and print.


If you are going to have the party, you must look the part! How precious is this backhoe construction tee?

Create a sweet backdrop alternating orange crepe paper, black crepe paper and caution tape. | SNL Parties

There is pretty cool Construction Garland available to make the best party table! We purchased this one from Target.

Have an area for construction party hard hats and Home Depot aprons (or orange safety vests). Near the entrance is great! | Catch My Party

Give everyone an activity to keep them busy. Wrap a kid’s swimming pool with black trash bags, fill with play sand and mini construction vehicles. | Fab Everyday

You might have orange fingers after you dig into these wrecking balls! You can put other snacks in hard hats for a cute Construction Tablescape for your eats. | Moms and Munchkins

Speaking of wrecking balls, turn a swing set into a wrecking ball area for play! You can wrap old shipping boxes with kraft paper and line them with black sharpie markers to make them look like bricks! | Source Unknown.

Construction Goodie bags can be made with candy and plastic orange cones! Pair with these construction party favor gift tags. | Hersheys

I have to give my 10 year old daughter credit for our dig in construction napkins and plates display. She used clip art to decorate the table and make the dump truck look like there was dirt inside.
