If your child loves to play in the sandbox or spends hours building with
blocks, chances are they will love to have a construction theme birthday
party. This party will appeal to both boys and girls and the inner builder
inside of us all.
Hosting a Construction Theme Birthday Party
Purchase some yellow construction tape from your local hardware store and
use that to decorate with instead of crepe paper. Make invitations out of
orange construction paper cut into the shape of construction cones. The
dress code on the invitation should read “jeans, t-shirts, and work boots.”
Decorate with orange, yellow and black balloons. Create “Road Work Ahead”,
“Men Working”, and “Women Working” signs out of construction paper or
paperboard. This is a great way to get the birthday girl or boy involved in
planning their party. Bob the Builder would be an excellent theme to use for
this party.
To keep the party guest busy get out building blocks, legos, Lincoln logs
and erector sets. Have a contest for the most unusual, most creative, most
likely to fall over, etc. Bake cookies in the shape of stoplights or stop
signs and let your guests decorate them.
To keep the food within the construction theme have a construct your own
bagel pizza making station. Let your guests add sauce, cheese, pepperoni,
and vegetables to the top of a bagel half. Place them all on a cookie sheet
and bake until the cheese is melted. Make brownies and put them in the back
of a toy dump truck.
The favors for this party can be construction themed too. Create tool belts
or tool boxes for your guests to take home and fill them with mini plastic
tools and candy.
The above idea will help you throw a successful and fun construction theme
birthday party. Have a great time building this event.
