FIRST BIRTHDAY PARTIES LEGO INVITATIONS
First birthday parties deserves a special invitation.
Want to save money? Check out our homemade invitations. LEGO theme invitations can be made to look like a LEGO brick! This helps set the theme for a great party. Below you get step by step instructions for the invitations printable in pdf form.
LEGO BRICK INVITATIONS
1)
Use an 8x10 piece of red, blue, yellow or green paper. You can
alternate colors or use all one color. Card stock paper works best.
2)
For the computer version, using your favorite program or one of our
links, center a photo of the birthday child or, if you prefer, a LEGO
clip art picture. LEGO photo frames are available to border pictures
and LEGO font can be downloaded for an added special effect.
3) Below the picture, invite the guest to your party. Our invitation says
“Come join the fun, Elijah is turning one!”. You can create your own wording if you would like for the first birthday parties.
4) Centered below that line should be the “where and when”. It is best
to not only include the location but the exact address as well. If the
place is tricky to find, don’t hesitate to make small maps to slip in
the card. Make sure to state the date and the day of the week, such as:
Saturday, November 22. The time of day will go beneath.
If you would like to have a good idea how many guests may show, you can add RSVP at the very bottom of the page.
5) Print the invitation.
6)
Once it has been printed,fold it top to bottom with the printed side of
the paper facing you. The blank side should be on the outside and the
printed on the inside.
7) Cut circles out of the remaining paper
and, using the same color as the paper, glue to the front of the blank
side to look like a Lego brick or you can use double-sided padded
adhesive dots for a 3-D effect. The fold should be at the top so it
opens from the side that is decorated like a Lego.
8) Now you are
ready to address and mail. Don’t forget the final touch- stickers! Lego
stickers can be purchased from the Other birthday stickers are fine as
well.
Congratulations on successfully completing the first step to your great first birthday party in LEGO®!

page and we'll set you up.
FIRST BIRTHDAY PARTIES PARTY DECORATIONS
Decorations
at your first birthday party are like icing on the cake! Decorate in
bright “LEGO®” colors: blue, yellow, red, and green. Balloons are
colorful and fun. Try tying a 12” curly ribbon string to each one using a
contrasting color.
LEGO Ville Mylar Balloon add a great element.
You do not have to buy anything however, but the easiest way to get started is with a LEGOVille Basic Party Pack.
You can add your own customized posters too. Just use bright colored poster boards to write “Happy Birthday” messages or whatever else you would like. Photos of the birthday boy or girl can be pasted on as well.
Crate paper streamers
are easy to put up and add lots of color. Use all four colors or pick
one. If you want to go all out, dangle large LEGO blocks from the
ceiling using strong thread or dental floss.
Pinatas are festive to look at and fun to bust into later on in the party.
Colorful tablecloths, napkins, paper cup and paper plates are another
great way to add color and cheer to first birthday parties. Use solid
bright colors or LEGO printed ones from LEGO Ville Napkins.
Table displays are an excellent way to bring your theme to life. For a
LEGO refreshment table, use a solid plastic tablecloth of red, blue,
yellow or green. Arrange your cake and snacks on the table.
For a great centerpiece, spell out your child’s name with LEGO®. Other LEGO creations can be displayed as well.
A separate table for drinks is a good idea since “spills happen”.
Decorate a beverage table in the same manner, using a bright colored
tablecloth for the background. LEGO creations can be displayed on this
table as well.
Some LEGO toys come in plastic containers shaped like a LEGO®. These are great to empty and fill with punch, juice or kool-aid. A bright colored ladle is perfect for serving into cups.
First birthday parties are the time to go all out on decorations!
Send them away with a smile! The fun doesn’t have to end when the party’s over. Here are some ideas to make LEGO goody bags that are sure to please.
If you prefer to purchase a pre-assembled party favor package, LEGO Ville Party Favor Box
has a great gift box that includes a toy fire engine, assorted
color-clay and cookie cutter, sheriff's badge clip, LEGO Ville sticker
sheet and blowout.
Or, put together your own using our LEGO party
favor ideas. If you have little ones attending an older child’s party,
you may want to accommodate them as well.
LEGO party treats can be bagged, sacked or packaged. Choose bright colors like red, green, blue or yellow or use fill-your-own LEGO themed party boxes, available at LEGO Ville Empty Favor Boxes.
Small colorful buckets or sand pails make great containers too.
First
Birthday Parties LEGO goody bags should be custom built for little
ones. Make sure all items are safe from choking hazards and are
non-toxic. Snacks should be age appropriate as well.
A handful of colorful large LEGO bricks are great for tiny tot favors.
Plastic balls, non-toxic bubbles, books, and organic play dough are
great as well. LEGO fruit snack packs and a small container of boxed
juice make tasty additions for this first birthday party.
You can
also make small bags of toddler treats using items from the baby and
toddler grocery aisle. Yogurt bites, puffs and junior cookies are
excellent selections.
Preschooler favor bags
still require consideration for product toxicity and choking hazards but
the selection is a bit wider. Age appropriate small packages of LEGOS
are sure to bring hours of fun or even a small builder set such as a car
or firetruck. Consider sidewalk chalk, a small container of crayons and
colorful clay.
If you prefer to give a one item party favor, LEGO checkers for
preschoolers is a great option.
For older children, Celebrate Express has great party favors such as
LEGO sticker sheets and activity packs listed above as well as items
specifically for bigger kids like snap and glow pops, LEGO notebooks
and key chains. These things are perfect for the first birthday parties.
Whatever else you put in your party favor container, be sure to include
small packages of assorted LEGO bricks or a small LEGO building set.
Enjoy using your own creativity along with our
ideas. Have fun building party favor gifts that will keep building fun
times long after the party.
