This is my last Lego Birthday Party post. Phew...almost done. Today, I am sharing THREE free printables with you. { Scroll to the bottom for the links.}
First, the goody "bag" Lego bricks.
I searched and searched for a good, basic, free box template and couldn't find one. So...I made one up and I'm sharing it with you!
Once I had a basic box I added Lego bumps to the top, much like with the juice boxes, and filled them with our goodies...
We bought the $15 pack of generic Legos from Walmart and Owen made some creations for each of the boys...
I made rings for the girls.
I just took ring bases {3 adjustable rings in a pack at Michaels for $2 and some cents, and then even less with a coupon} and glued on a square Lego with E-6000 glue.
I threw in an extra block and some "jewels" to add to the top...which are really the little one bump Legos that are used for truck headlights and such.
We also included a bag of some Lego candy which you can actually build with. They are really tasty too. Yum! I got them at our local grocery store's bulk candy bins.
And here are the free printables:
1. The box Lego bricks. Click here to download the google doc pdf. Personal use only please.
This box will look a little bit different than the ones in the pictures above. As I was assembling mine, I noticed some flaws, so I went back to the drawing board and came up with a MUCH better box. I also added the Lego bumps right in the template so you don't have to cut and paste them on. You just have to fold the box with the lines on the outside of the box.
Your box should end up slightly smaller than the ones I pictured above, and looking more like this...
It closes tighter and doesn't need tape to stay closed.
Tip: Use hot glue to assemble the boxes. I tried tape {as you can see from my pics - it's an eye sore}, rubber cement, elmers school glue, glue stick. The glue that works the fastest, cleanest and the best was of course hot glue. Aren't you guys glad you get to learn from all my mistakes?
2. Lego bumps. Click here to download. Personal use only please.
This is just an entire 8 1/2 x 11 sheet of Lego bumps. I printed up a couple of sheets of each color, cut them into bricks and used them to make my Lego mosaic wall. You can use them for bunting, for napkin rings, for invitations, for a crown like I did here...
The possibilities are endless.
Please note...I tried my best to make the bumps as uniform as possible but I am not a machine. It is not perfect, just pretty close. :)
3. And lastly...I am giving anyone permission to save this jpg photo {below} to their computer for personal use.
If you use it and post it on the web please give photo credit where it's due. That is all I ask. We used them for invites but if we had a little more moolah I would have printed a big poster with Owen's name on it or something to welcome everyone to the party. Again...lots of possibilities.
Thank you for all of your supportive comments concerning this party. I know a lot of you have expressed interest in planning a Lego party yourselves.
I wish you the very best of luck and lots of fun!

You are the COOLEST mom ever and this is such a GREAT party!
This is the coolest birthday party! My sibblings and I still have our bin of lego at my mom's, ready for the grandkids. Thanks for sharing all of your neat ideas Delia.
I told my 5 year old about the party. First he said he wanted to go, then he said he wished it was his birthday. REALLY cool ideas!
Thanks so much for all of the printables and great ideas :) I think this is definately going to be the theme for Christopher's party. He is so excited :)
What a great party! I LOVE LOVE LOVE that you did it all yourself!! GREAT JOB!
Your lego party looks like it turned out awsome! All those little details, the games, it just looks like it turned out perfectly for the kiddos :) We may be revisiting these posts for a birthday party in the future!
I wish I had kids so I could just do this party!!! Out of all the links you showed me... I loved your end product much better!!!!
You are SO creative and sweet. If my son hadn't just had his party, I would be ALL over these neat ideas. I will save it for next year though. Thank you!
can i just say AWESOME AWESOME AWESOME! You really did a great job!
These are GREAT ideas!! I'll have to show these to my little man who's turning 4 in May...we may have a lego birthday coming up, too! :) Thanks for sharing!
You just made my day! I'm so printing the boxes to fill in April when I will be hosting our own Lego birthday party.
(And how is the E-6000 holding up for the rings? I made some with hot glue but it's not that sturdy.)
Oh WOW! Thank you so, SO much for these! I get emails asking for Lego stuff all the time. I would love to link to your Lego posts if you didn't mind.
These are amazing! I'm planning a lego party for my son in October. Thank you for the inspiration!!!
Thank you, thank you! I have a lego party coming up in less than two weeks! We're getting down to the little details now. Thanks for the ideas and printables!
Thank you so much for the ideas! I am planning a lego party for my son's birthday next week. I especially love the juice boxes and invites. Thanks for sharing your templates :)
p.s. How many lego creations can you make with that set from Wal-mart? I am debating between that and the party favor set. I love to save money!! But I'm not sure yet how many kids we will be inviting.
Thanks for posting all your fun bday party ideas! I am going to use a few of them for my son's 6th bday coming up in a few weeks.
You've got great ideas! I'm so impressed. I love those lego rings.
Year Old Birthday Party Ideas
The gift of time is a the best gift in the world. Thank you for giving yours to all of us moms who have lego nuts at home. I am having my sons lego party in a few weeks and these ideas are definitely getting me motivated. Thanks a bunch and have a great day!!
Delia:
You are a genious!
More: you are a gracious and giving genious!!!
Thank you so much for sharing!!!
Here, in Brazil, we don´t do "home parties" very often (but I DO cause I love it!) and it´s very hard to find some inspiration and material to work with. Thank you, thank you, thank you!!!
Kisses and blessings.

Thankyou so much for sharing...I've just done a Lego themed party for my 9 year old and used your box template for the loot boxes. They turned out great and you can see them here: http://thimbelinas.blogspot.com/2011/07/lego-birthday-party.html
Thanks again :)
You seriously rock. My son wants a Lego party for his 7th bday...thank God we are finally done with the $500+ parties at the moon bounce places. I got so many ideas from you. Thank you for being so generous to share your ideas and downloads. I am not computer savvy at all and your ideas are so helpful. Thanks again:)
I know this post is from forever ago, but I just wanted to thank you for all the free printables...I am doing a lego party for my kiddo this weekend and this is PERFECT! Thanks for sharing your talent and making my guy (and me) happy!!!
Party Tip: At staples or kinkos you can print big 2x3 feet black and white posters [called engineering prints] for $3-4 and they are ready in just seconds!
Your party is so cute!!
Thanks so much! I have been searching for Lego party ideas for my son. Do you by chance also have the picture you used for the place cards? I will definitely give you credit if I post anything.
Thank you soooooooo much for posting and sharing all of this! I love love love your ideas!!! Awesome!!! I just downloaded your lego gift box pdf...and it reminded me of something....thought I'd share.....if you buy cream cheese in the block, it comes in a box almost exactly this size.....I sell scrapbooking stuff, and I keep a lot of my 'trash'- I call it going green...hee hee...anyway, if you gently open up a cream cheese box on all the glued areas, then either trace the shape onto cardstock, cut it out, and fold back up and voila! You have an instant box! Or, if you only need one at a time, or have several boxes, just open the original up and paper cover it, then put it back together! And the tombow tape runner, and/or scor tape or red sticky tape works great for these projects! Hope this helps you! You have certainly helped me! Thanks so much!!!
What paper is best to print the lego gift box pdf and juice box pdf on? I just finished doing the lego pinata! My son is going to be so excited!
thank you for sharing your resources! my son will have an even better party now!!!

Thank you for sharing your party! I used the printables for my son's star wars lego party. They were wonderful. Here are some pictures: Star Wars Lego Birthday Party
Thank you so much for the downloads. These are going to add such amazing details to my sons birthday party. I was wodnering what font you used on the Lego Bumps? I am trying to replicate it for another detail of the party.
Thank you again for making my party planning a little easier and a lot more fun.

I would love to use your lego printables for my son's birthday, however I am having trouble downloading them from google docs. When I press where you indicated to do so, it brings me to google docs however keeps saying error. Help! Thanks :)
having trouble with the "Lego Bump" printables... help?!
Thank you for helping me make my son's Lego party even cooler and a lot easier on me!
Hi! Thanks for sharing your ideas and printables:) I am not able to open the lego bumps document via google docs, either. Any suggestions! I am hoping to make the juice boxes, as well! Thanks!
Kari
Great job! Can you please fix the links so we can access the PDF files again? Thanks!
Great lego party!
Anyway I can access your printable for the party favor bricks? I can't seem to download them, they just come up blank!
Thanks!
Love all your ideas and designs!! Quick question - is there any way to make the printable for the loot boxes a bit larger (but still fitting on an regular sheet of paper)? It's just a smidge too small for my loot! :)
Wow, you are seriously a life saver! I am planning a lego party for my son, and you sharing this stuff is going to make it a whole lot easier! Thank you! I will give you credit for sure!
Nice favor boxes. I like this collections.
