Legos! The elite toy that even grown ups are still excited to play with whenever they get a chance. I’ve been seeing lots of Lego inspired items, like these, popping up all over the place lately and I want them! You know, for my non-Lego storage. Practical, right!? Regardless, after seeing those and this awesome party Sharon threw, it was definitely time for a round-up of Lego inspired crafts and treats. Oh how I wish my nephew lived closer so I could throw him a Lego birthday in real life! Anyone have a Lego-obsessed kid I can throw a birthday for!?
1. Lego Cookies: Homemade sugar cookies plus Spree candies= Insta-edible-Legos! Provide the supplies on the party table and let the kids go to down building their own treats.

2. Lego Invitations: What kid wouldn’t freak out if they received a bag full of Legos to assemble and then find out they are invited to a Lego party. Stop it right now. You could also use this concept as labels for food or at place settings.

3. Lego Piñata: You know I love me a homemade piñata! This Lego one is a stroke of genius. That’s about all I have to say because I know you’ve already clicked the link for the full tutorial.

4. Lego Cakes: Sure, you could get a photo of your child scanned onto an ice cream cake, but why!? You can make them a Lego cake instead. And then someone won’t end up eating your kiddo’s left ear… I am obsessed with these. Jeff used to love Legos, perhaps that’s a good enough excuse to make one?

5. Lego Gift Bags: The best part about creating Lego crafts is just how simple they are! Colorful bags, colorful paper, a circle punch and BAM! Lego. Favor. Bags. (I also threw in the matching cupcakes because I just love these primary colors.

Thanks for mentioning my party! My kid is a Lego fanatic. There was no way I was getting out of that being part of the theme. 😉
