Legoland was the inspiration for my son's 10th Birthday, we had a Lego race car party. I designed and printed out Lego flyer invitations with racing flags. I bought paper plates, napkins and
cups in primary colors. A race car cake was purchased at Costco. For games, I found little bagged lego cars that all the boys could put together. These were purchased for $1.99
on sale. My husband constructed a 6-7 ft. wooden raceway perched on top of a step ladder. I stapled down black plastic runner material from Home Depot and put beige masking tape down the
center of the wood. A 4-sided wooden stick was the starting gate and the racing began. Winners were given little gold trophies.
Other activities included; Guess How Many Legos are in the Jar, A Lego Scavenger Hunt using lego people and coloring Shrinkydink car keychains. The shrinkydink activity interested the parents and they helped bake the cars. I prepared each car key chain before the party and had each boy color their car with colored pencils. The hole was carefully punched, the cars outlined in black sharpie and little chains were provided. My son and his friends considered the raceway the hit of the party. The boys continued to race throughout the party.
