Most of us grew up playing with LEGO and it’s wonderful to see that it is just as loved by our little one’s too! It is a popular party theme and a fun one to put together.
You can easily use your child’s own lego collection to put together decorations and centrepieces for this party theme as well as fun activity stations for all the kids to play lego during the party. View my PINTEREST board for lots of party ideas for a lego party.
Given that lego pieces really are just made up of rectangles and circles it also makes it easy to make your own lego inspired decorations and blocks for this party as well!
Go for bright colours for this theme, and I’ve included lots of polka dot supplies as it’s a pattern which suits a lego party.

Hopefully this post has given you some inspiration to start planning your Lego theme party – a party all the kids will delight in I am sure, as long as there is lego to play with!
For your little one’s celebration, styling it around colours (as opposed to a specific theme) can work beautifully and yellow and grey are two colours that I am loving together at the moment (and it seem’s alot of you are too!). Of course you can also choose this colour scheme to work in with a specific theme you have chosen as well. It’s perfect for boys, girls or a baby shower!
Make sure you also pop into our previous “You are my sunshine” theme post which has lots of yellow inspiration as well!

I hope you found some inspiration for the yellow and grey themed celebration you are planning! This colour combination really does work so well with or without a theme combined with it. It’s versatile, cute and perfect for spring and summer coming up!
If your child would love to have Super powers a Superhero party is the perfect chance for them to at least pretend for a day, that they do!
As you can see from the printable designs below – a generic superhero theme or one based on a comic book look, are popular rather than only a specific character (ie superman, batman etc) party.

A classic boy theme which so many little men seem to love at some stage of their childhood! It’s cute & boyish at the same time with lots of red, yellow and black & can also feature orange and blue. Tin & metal elements could also work into this theme and you could choose to go modern or vintage.
Key images you could work into your decor are fire engines, fire hydrants, fire helmets, whistles, torches, ladders, firefighters, fire alarm bell, hoses, dalmatians, sirens…just to get you started!
I hope these ideas will either contribute to your party planning or inspire you with some ideas!
Starting off with some modern and vintage printables, they really show off how different colour combination’s could work for this party:
Fire Truck printable - Style Me Gorgeous
Vintage Firetruck invitation - TomKat Studio
