Invitations

Try one of these invitation ideas. They're perfect for kids party themes like Bob the Builder!

 

• Take a picture of the birthday boy in this Bob the Builder costume. Attach it to bright cardstock and on the outside write "Can we build it?" On the inside or the back, right "Yes we can! Join our construction crew as we build the fun for (name)'s birthday on (date) at (time). We'll be on site at (location) and we'll be waiting for you!"
• Use metallic silver poster board (or paint some yourself!) to cut out the shape of a circular saw blade. Tell guests "Time to saw into some fun! (Name) is turning (age) and we're spinning with excitement! Please join us on (date) at (time, location)."
• Create a help wanted ad on cardstock. "WANTED! Workers to join the team of (child's name) and Bob the Builder. Project: Birthday Celebration. Pay: Lots of Fun! Apply in person between the hours of (start time) and (end time) on (date) at (location)."

Decorations

To transform your jobsite, try some of these Bob the Builder party ideas:

Lead guests right to your door by drawing lines, arrows, and writing directions such as "This way to the party zone!" on your sidewalk. Use this mini sidewalk chalk set to create your entrance, and then turn it over to the kids during the party so they can add their own artwork.

Add a few of these construction traffic signs to your outdoor display. Realistic and two-sided, they're a great way to tell the world about your Bob the Builder birthday party!

Line the walkway with mini construction cones and there will be no mistaking where this party leads!

Inside, greet each member of your hardworking crew with Construction Hard Hats and Candy-Filled Tool Sets that are perfect for a Bob the Builder birthday party.

Have as many boxes on hand as you can, in all sizes from big to small. Provide art supplies, such as markers or washable paint, and watch big ideas grow. Kids can construct towers or create construction vehicles. Have plenty of round flashing safety lights on hand for their creations. Safety first!

Create the effect of a brilliant blue sky without leaving the house by looping blue streamers across the ceiling. A large group of bright yellow balloons together in one spot makes a great sun, while groupings of white balloons easily pass for puffy clouds.

Cut out tool pairs, such as a hammer and nail, a screw and screwdriver, or a saw and piece of wood. Use brightly colored paper and place them around the party. For a fun activity, divide the kids into teams and assign each team a tool pair. The first group to find all of the pieces to each of their designated tool pairs wins!

The Construction Pals Personalized Birthday Banner is a great way to make sure that everyone knows who the birthday boy is.

Construction Traffic Signs are a great addition indoors as well.

When a little demolition is called for, choose between the Bob the Builder 18" Construction Pinata and the Bulldozer 20" Pinata.

Start your birthday party table off with the Bob the Builder Construction party pack. It includes everything you need to set the table, from the tablecover to the activity mats and enough place settings for eight guests. Matching balloons, ribbons, and streamers are also included.

Don't stop with just paper products! Construction cone cups will be the talk of the job site! Be sure to have one on site for each of your guests.

Food

Bring your kids party themes to life by serving your hard working crew food right from the lunch truck! Create boxed lunches with blue and red striped favor boxes.

Here are some boxed lunch ideas for use with construction kids party themes:

• Juice boxes
• Fresh whole apples or oranges
• Single serve snack packs, such as chips or cookies
• Granola Bars
• Individually wrapped cheese sticks
• Sandwiches, such as peanut butter and jelly or ham and cheese

When it comes to making the perfect Bob the Builder birthday party cake, try your hand at one of these kids party themes cakes:

• Ice a sheet cake to resemble a construction site. Include green grass and "dirt" made from crumbled cookies. Arrange store-bought construction equipment on the cake to complete the scene. (Before you add objects to the top of your cake, wash them thoroughly and dry completely!)
• If you're a little more confident in your cake decorating abilities, use a Bob the Builder character cake pan. Simply bake the cake right in the pan and follow the directions on the insert for a delicious likeness of Bob! If you need more cake, bake a 9x13" sheet cake and ice completely. Then carefully place the Bob the Builder shaped cake on top and decorate.
• If there's an artist in you, bake a sheet cake or prepare a round two layer cake. Using a #3 tip, draw the outline of Bob or any of his sidekicks. Fill in the outline with dyed icing for a one-of-a-kind cake creation!

Party Favors

Perfect for any construction kids party themes, Bob the Builder favor boxes come with everything you need to send your hard workers off with a reward for a job well done. Each one comes with a construction truck, Bob the Builder blowout, a sticker sheet, clay, and a cookie cutter.

To really show your gratitude, provide each member of your Bob the Builder birthday party crew with his own cement mixer with candy. This truck dispenses candy right off the truck and down a chute!

Thank You Notes

Don't just send thanks – send memories! These yellow photo-enclosure thank-you notes are a great way to show your guests how much you appreciate them. Include a picture of the birthday boy or a candid shot of each guest enjoying the party.
