a certain little boy had an
AWESOME
Lego Star Wars Party!!!!
(that is a direct quote from the little man himself)
Star Wars and Legos are number one in these parts and what could be better than
Lego Star Wars?
A 4th Birthday party.
I did my research on Lego and Star Wars parties.
There are so many blogs with amazing and creative ideas.
I needed to keep in mind we would be hosting approximately 15, 3 to 5 year olds
so I wanted to make the activities easy and fun for everyone.
I also wanted to keep costs down and get my craft on.
These are some of the things I either "borrowed" from many creative ladies
or figured out myself.
Invitations and Decor
I ordered a very cool ticket invitation from Etsy. Unfortunately, the shop is no longer listed.
I made matching mailing labels.

I opted for a store bought Darth Vadar Pinata, it was too cool to pass up.
The decor was mainly primary colors
and Michael's regular and Star Wars Lego sprinkled about.
Bummed this picture was so dark. :(
My aunt made these adorable fruit cabobs.
notice the Yoda container?
Surprisingly all the marshmallows began to disappear.... :)
Kid Sized Light Sabers
I ordered cheer sticks in blue and green and added duct tape as a handle.
These were a GIANT hit. A plus is that they have
on and off switches and are soft,
so I didn't have to worry about the kids hurting each other.

Cake Top
I whipped together a quick Top for the main cake.
Just printed it out and glued toothpicks to the back to stand on the cake.
Cupcake Toppers
We had the Jedi's and the Dark Side.
Lego goodie bags with Personalized Tags
Bags are from Target, then use your 2 inch hole punch in same color for Lego pegs.

I used the same characters from the cupcake toppers for the labels.
I found a free Star Wars font on THIS site.

Jedi Training Games
Light Saber Training
I demonstrated how Jedi's have to train with balloons.
After a brief pause, the kids went crazy!

Mustafar Lava Jump
Once the kids had mastered their light sabers,
Once the kids had mastered their light sabers,
they needed to navigate the lava fields of Mustafar and not drop their light sabers.
The kids lined up and hopped from stone to stone to safety.
This game was very popular and super easy. I made it with a old red vinyl table cloth
and brown paper cut outs.
Giant Lego Stacking
Another easy craft made with package boxes, toilet paper/paper towel tubes
and spray paint.

Tape the box closed, cut your tubes in 2 inch sections, tape to the top of the box and spray.
These make both great decorations and then a great game.
The kids have to stack all the boxes in a tower with out it falling.
They even get to use their Jedi Mind Power to keep it from falling over.
Pin the Light Saber on Yoda
I found a cool picture of Lego Yoda online and enlarged it to 11 X 17 and printed.
I also printed a light saber for each child.
We used a Boba Fett mask we had with eyes covered for each child.

Lego Coloring Pages with Birthday Message
These were just too cute and you can customize!
The kids had a terrific time, I think most of the dad's were also in heaven.
The smile on Michael's face was priceless and so was his exclamation of it being
The bestest birthday EVER!
