Construction Party Theme Ideas
- Give your construction-loving tike something to remember.construction loader image by David Sexton from <a href='http://www.fotolia.com'>Fotolia.com</a>
Construction scenes and equipment captivate many industrious tikes who find impressive structures fascinating. If your son is a fan of everything construction, consider throwing him a construction-themed bash. Using a variety of construction-based items, you can give your youngster and her peers a safe and enjoyable construction-working experience. - Capture party guests' attention with creative, construction-themed birthday invites. Type out your invitations on the computer, and print them onto cardstock. Purchase small, plastic construction machinery toys. Punch a hole in each invitation, and use string to attach each invite to a toy. Get your little builder excited about his birthday by letting him put on his tool belt and go around delivering these invitations and attached toys to his invitees.
- Trade standard party hats for a more construction related option. Purchase inexpensive plastic hard hats for your guests to wear. To get these hats party ready, use the computer to create a patch to place on the front of each piece of head wear. Type up "Happy Birthday" or a similar statement. Glue these patches onto the hats prior to the event.
- Keep your birthday party guests busy by letting them try out their building skills. Purchase several sets of blocks to use for this activity. Divide party guests into different teams, giving each team one set of blocks. Allow the birthday boy to act as foreman, overseeing the building but not working with any specific team. Give the teams a set amount of time to build as impressive a structure as they can manage. After the time has elapsed, let the birthday boy select the best structure and reward the team that built it with a special, construction themed, prize.
- Let your guests burn off some of their energy through the creation of a construction obstacle course. To create this course, purchase or borrow an assortment of construction-related elements, such as large tires, cones and construction signs. Use the gathered construction pieces to create a challenging obstacle course in your backyard. Allow guests to test their skills by running through this carefully laid out course.
- Give the birthday cake the construction treatment through the creation of tool cookies. To create this construction-themed birthday treat, bake a standard cake and decorate it with white frosting, or frosting in the birthday boy's favorite hue. Purchase tool shaped cookie cutters and use these devices to create tool shaped sugar cookies. Allow the birthday boy to help you decorate these cookies, then pile them on the cake. This uncommon cake topping is both creative and tasty and will likely leave your birthday guests requesting seconds.
