I hope you love this LEGO THEMED 5TH BIRTHDAY PARTY, submitted by Sarah Epstein of Crackers Art, as much as I do! Everything is just adorable. So many clever elements!
Here is what Sarah had to say about the party— “When I asked my son Harvey what theme he wanted for his upcoming 5th birthday party, he jumped at the chance of having a Lego-inspired party before his big brother stole the theme for his own party next month.I did a little happy dance because I’ve been dying to create a Lego-inspired party. But I also wanted to put a unique spin on it. I’ve seen some fabulous Lego parties on the web, but I wanted ours to reflect everything my boys love about Lego. And I wanted lots and lots of in-your-face colour – no shrinking violets here!
I designed all of the party printables and then tied in all of the food into the same colour scheme. There were two separate tables – the dessert buffet, and a smaller snack table which I directed the kids to first so they could eat something other than sugar. They also had a sit-down lunch of savoury yummies before it was time to hit the desserts.
I usually attempt the cake and biscuits myself, but this time around I enlisted the skills of the awesomely-talented Lisa from ‘Cakes & Biscuits By Lisa’. And I’m so glad I did – they turned out perfectly and exactly as I had pictured.
And what’s a party without some games? As well as a ‘Draw Your Own Lego Character’ colouring competition, we also had a ‘Pin the Brick in the Wall’ game (our Lego version of ‘Pin the Tail on the Donkey’), free-range Lego on the lounge-room rug, and some Lego tower-building races. I also created all the graphics for the games, which I just kept simple and effective.
From all reports, everyone had a great time and the birthday boy loved every minute!”

Hi… Thank goodness I found this. I want to do this theme for my soon to be 5 year old… I love your work.. I do not see the link for your etsy account. Can you tell me what it is.. Thanks in advance
I’m doing a Lego party for my son this Saturday. I am trying to figure out his cake. What are the lego “blocks” made from that are on/with the cake? I dislike using fondant but will if that’s my only choice. Was hoping you had a better idea! LOL
ps LOVE all your ideas!!
Hi Joanne. I realise your party was ages ago, but I thought for anyone else who wanted to know the answer to this question…yes, the Lego bricks on the cake were made out of fondant icing.
Thanks for your compliments!
Cheers, Sarah
