HOLIDAY DECORATIONS for Lego's birthday
The main color combinations that can be used at a birthday party are the colors of the cubes: yellow, red, blue (light blue), green (light green). Polka dots work well among patterns.
Use these colors in balloons and compositions made from them, decorative pom-poms
, in paper garlands, streamers and banners.
It is customary to divide several main topics into series of thematic sets. Most popular:
Lego (general theme)
– just cubes in various combinations, Lego men
Lego Duplo
– series for kids
Lego Ninjago
– for boys, with Lego Ninja, there is a m/f
Lego Friends
– for girls
Characters from Lego sets, drawn or printed, are perfect for decorating doors, walls, and a sweet table.
and, of course, for a themed photo zone.
If you have several children’s yellow helmets (from “Builder” toy sets, etc.), they can serve both as decoration and as stylization as Lego men. You can make stickers for them with the inscription “Lego” or name stickers. You can also decorate with ready-made (large) Lego sets, however, there is a danger that something will pull out a couple of cube parts)
Additional decor can be foil balloons, balloon figures or piñatas in the form of Lego or Lego men.
Invitations
Any holiday begins with drawing up a guest list and making invitations. You can order them from a printing company or buy ready-made postcards. But it’s best to do this together with the future birthday boy:
- First, you need to print out the word “Lego” written many times on colored paper. Each invitation will require 6-8 such words.
- A circle is cut out of cardboard, which will become a template. It is applied to paper with printed words so that the word is in the center of the circle, and circled with a pencil.
- The circles are cut along the lines and glued to them from the inside with double-sided foam tape.
- Postcards are made from cardboard of different colors by folding the sheet in half. Mugs are glued on top of them using the second side of the tape. This will simulate constructor blocks.
All that remains is to write the invitation text itself. This can be done on plain paper or on a sheet with the Lego logo. The text must indicate the exact location, date and time of the event, and, just in case, the telephone number of the birthday boy’s parents.

Gifts for the birthday boy
Of course, your child should not be left without a gift either. Moreover, choosing a gift for the birthday person is a very responsible mission. Before the holiday, find out if he wants any new Lego collection, as new special themed collections are now being released - Star Wars or Harry Potter, which contain elements that cannot be found in regular Lego collections. So if your child is a Lego fan and knows about it, he will know better what he needs from the diverse world of Lego. However, you can give your child some other gift that has nothing to do with the construction set; it all depends on his taste preferences.
So, this themed birthday party is sure to please your birthday child and his guests. The holiday will be remembered for a long time, leaving behind many pleasant impressions and fun. The main thing is that parents have organizational talent and a desire to please their child.
Festive table
Buy disposable tableware and napkins of different colors - this way you will make your holiday table bright and unusual.
The designer himself will help you present cutlery creatively - we make containers for forks, spoons, plates and other utensils from it. This task can easily be entrusted to the future birthday boy, even if he makes his contribution to the design of the birthday party in Lego style.
We also serve themed dishes on the table, for example, sausage sandwiches, which are shaped like construction kit parts.
Ideas for photos
Something that requires a minimum of effort, but makes photos from the holiday unusual - photo props. To make it you will need very little time and materials. A few ideas for photo props for a Lego-style birthday party:
Well, for those who decided to create something on a larger scale - a birthday-themed photo stand.
Meeting with guests
At the entrance to the premises, guests will be greeted by a sign made of construction blocks, the number on which notifies how old the birthday person is today. To make sure that guests are also in the birthday style, we give them pendants made from Lego bricks or themed masks at the entrance.
Well, since it’s customary to wash your hands before the holiday table, even soap can be decorated in the style of our birthday - put a few designer parts into the bottle. This Lego soap looks very impressive and is sure to please your guests.
DIY cake in the shape of a Lego piece
Make the dough like a sponge cake and bake it into a fairly thick crust. You can add a little food or natural coloring to the dough to match the color of the part.
When the cake is ready, cut it into two thinner cakes and give them a rectangular shape. Then spread all the cakes with delicious cream, stacking one on top of the other.
Carefully level the top layer and make it perfectly smooth. To make protruding round pieces on a Lego piece, take a regular round cookie, coat it with the same cream and place it on top of the cake.
Of course, you can order an original cake with your favorite Lego theme, or try to make a cake decoration yourself from fondant.
Treats
You definitely need to take care of the birthday cake. As a rule, it is made to order so that it appears to consist of designer parts. If someone decides to make it themselves, they will need mastic. It is with its help that cake decorations are prepared.
What else needs to be prepared?
- Plates (preferably square) and cutlery can be made of plastic. It is important that they are bright, in .
- Cups and straws for drinks should be the same. They are placed in stands made from construction kit parts.
- Regular juice in small boxes is covered with colored paper, and circles are drawn on it to create the illusion of a large block.
- Square and rectangular crackers and even sandwiches are suitable as treats if you put a piece of cheese on the bread and rounds of cheese cut out on top.
- Cupcakes and muffins, beloved by many children, are decorated with Lego characters made from fondant or white chocolate with the addition of food coloring.
Not all treats have to imitate the details of a construction set. Regular pizza, profiteroles and ice cream can simply be served on colorful plates, and the heads of yellow Lego men cut out of paper can be glued to the cutlery.

Entertainment
Decorating the room, drawing up the menu, and distributing invitations are important for the party, but this is not the most important thing. A script is required:
- At the door, little guests should be greeted by an adult dressed as a yellow legoman. It will be enough to wear a red T-shirt, blue trousers, and tie a yellow scarf on your head or put on a cardboard headband with a cardboard head of a man glued on.
- Guests should be escorted to a room where the animated “Lego Movie” will be shown on TV. The children will wait there until all the guests have arrived.
- After congratulating the birthday boy and the first portion of treats, you can move on to entertainment. Most likely, children will want to play outdoor games. What can you offer them? If there are a lot of guests, they are divided into 2 teams and invited to take part in a relay race, where each participant must run up to a box with parts, scoop them up with a large spoon and bring them back. The team that brings the most parts will win. It is best to weigh all the brought blocks rather than count them individually.
- Surely boys and girls will be interested in playing other games. For example, assemble a machine and compete with other participants to see who can launch their “creation” next.
- Among the quiet games, children should like the following: “guess how many”, where you try to guess how many parts are in a transparent jar, or “what kind of fairy tale”, when everyone assembles an “illustration” for some fairy tale from a construction set, and the rest guess what kind of work is shown.
After these and other entertainments, you can start the birthday cake. And at the very end of the party, when the kids are a little tired, you should play cartoons about Lego City, etc., or just give them the opportunity to play with their favorite construction set.
Such a birthday will be remembered by both the hero of the occasion and his friends. And to make the impressions last a long time, you can give each guest a bag with memorable souvenirs - a chocolate egg with a Lego toy or a simple construction set in soft packaging.
