My son is totally obsessed with the Minecraft game! So, a few months ago I started combing Pinterest and the Internet for any and all ideas. Here is what I came up with for his 11th birthday party. Hope you enjoy! The Invite: I made 40+ of these little buggers! They got mixed up while getting passed out...if I had to do it over again, I'd mail them pre-cut and have the kids put them together themselves! On-Time Activity: Minecraft Masks I had some large tagboard squares and a billion cut up pieces of construction paper. The kids all made a Minecraft Skin-a Pixelation of themselves so they could enter the Minecraft Party World! They did an amazing job, too! I ordered the stone wall backdrop from Oriental Trading and made the Birthday banner myself. Minecraft Tutorial: (For those that weren't familiar with it) Get Wood! I totally ran out of time and energy! So my games were very basic. We had the party at a large pavillion and the party tables and food were on one side, games and things on the other. We strewed wooden craft sticks on the floor. The kids had to go collect 3 little sticks and 2 big ones (we skipped a few crafting steps, I know!) After the "wood" was collected, the kids had to CRAFT a pick axe and their chest (inventory bag/goodie bag). Chests/Goodie Bags Pick Axe Next we had to mine for ORE... (crumpled up foil) and craft an IRON pick axe! Then we had a great game of Musical Minecraft! We played Minecraft Parody Songs. The kids had to make sure they were standing on a block when the music stopped and the ones that got "out" got to pick the next song! Time to Mine! For this I used several small blocks scattered around the floor of the pavillion. After the kids collected the blocks, they came over to the crafting table and looked at the prizes. They had to see what was needed to craft the prize and use those blocks. It got very complicated and I ended up letting them just grab the prizes they wanted (one of each only!*) Prizes included: Minecraft Stickers, Printable Foldables, Trading Cards, "Diamonds", Gold Coins, and Twizzlers TNT. Time for the Food...My Favorite Part! Here's what we had: And the cake... A very happy birthday boy! After food...presents and then...CREEPER attack! (you can see the Creeper better in the blog title picture at the top) Candy packets were inside: Starbursts and Caramels. (Also pictured are the TNT candy prize bags) Closing Activity: Minecraft Song Videos and Dancing I hope you liked our party! I used a lot of ideas from Megan over at Choose Awesome.

Big Guy is OBSESSED with Lego's. I mean any and every kind of Lego thing there is he wants. He has always been really good at putting things together with his hands. It was no surprise that he wanted a Lego party. Here were the invitations that when out. I found a bunch of ideas online for invitations. I incorporated a lot of the ideas and this is what I came up with . Here is the front The different backs that I did. I was planning on having most of the party outside. I didn't really have any big plans for the garage but with the weather deciding it was going to rain I knew outside play wasn't an option. We did our best to decorate the garage "Lego" like as much as possible. I was a little concerned with having 23 kids in my house but we did manage. I spray painted the dance floor from Bear's sock hop party to make it look like Lego's. My Love wrapped some shelves we had with wrapping paper and then I plopped some paper plates on them to make them look like giant Lego's. It turned out well. I made this shirt for Big Guy. He thought it was really funny. Here was the inside of the house. I mostly decorated with colored card stock and cut out circles to the stick on the paper to make it look like Lego's. It was all really inexpensive. Of course the tradition of the banner lives on. This year it was Lego guys. The table setting. I don't know if you can see it but there is a giant felt Lego on the table. This cake was harder then I thought it was going to be. Frosting those stinkin' cookies on top was so hard. I didn't like the way it turned out. It looked like I was throwing a baby shower for Big Guy. It reminded me of baby blocks but it was the best I could do.We had the Lego movie playing in the background in the garage but we did play some games too. We played "Pin the Dot on the Lego" as well as "Who can build the tallest Lego tower". This was a huge hit. At the end of the party everyone got a party favor. I made these marshmallow Lego guy heads with yellow chocolate and then took edible markers to draw faces on them. Can you tell which face My Love drew? Lots of Lego heads. The finished product was a Lego head, some Taffy, coloring crayons I got from the dollar store that matched the color theme perfectly and a coloring book that I made for each of the kids.

My son Kaden absolutely loves ROCKS. Ever since he was tiny he loved reading books about rocks, watching shows about rocks, and listening to his Grandma talk about rocks (my mom is a geologist). In preschool he even told his class he was going to be a paleontologist + geologist when he grew up :]. So for his 7th birthday party he wanted a... GEOLOGIST + GEOLOGY + ROCK THEMED BIRTHDAY PARTY! I have definitely never styled a party quite like this, but had so much fun and am happy with how everything turned out!
