This Star Wars Lego birthday party is the CUTEST! Loads of fun ideas for decor, food, activities, even Jedi training, and a Death Star piñata!
We recently celebrated my sons 5th birthday! Last year my son had a Lego birthday party, but his love for Lego’s has only grown. This year he insisted on another Lego birthday party, but this time Star Wars style! It’s Star Wars Lego birthday party time!
I somehow forgot to take a picture of the entire table, but for decor I did happen to take some individual pictures of the tables centerpieces. I kept things simple. Down the center of the table I placed pictures of my son defeating Darth Vader at Disneyland last year, placed next to some of my sons Lego Star Wars ships. The kids thought it was the coolest to see my sons pictures and ships on display.
Star Wars Lego Party – Lego Building
Since this was a Lego Star Wars party, there definitely needed to be some Lego building involved. First on the agenda was for them to build their own Star Wars ship. I bought each guest their own Lego ship to build. I got these at the check out stand at Target. I gave them each a bag with their Jedi name on it so they had a place to put their ships. I have to admit that I was sort of dreading this activity. The kids were age 4-6. I was worried that I would be the one to end up building all of the ships. I just told the kids that they could follow the instructions or be a master builder and use the pieces to build their own ship. You know what, it worked! Most of the kids were able to build this all on their own, and pretty quickly. Bonus: this taught my son that he can now build Lego’s 100% on his own. Now he is so obsessed with doing it on his own that he has taken apart all of his previously built ships and rebuilt them just to prove to himself that he can do it! It has been a life changer not have to build all of my sons Lego’s, and probably the best thing about throwing this party!
Look how pleased he is with himself!
Star Wars Lego Party – Jedi Training
Next, we moved on to a little Jedi Training Academy. First up was the obstacle course. Each guest was given a pool noodle light saber for this activity.
We started off by having the kids jump through hula hoops while using their light saber to attack Lego Darth Maul and Lego Darth Vader.
My husband also had a Lego Darth Vadar that he tried to get the kids with while they were walking across balance beam- one pool noodle that I sliced in half.
Then they traveled at light speed- crawled through the boxes- to then fight their way through the storm trooper forest- balloons with storm trooper faces.
Then they got to use their light sabers to pop bubbles.
We also did a death star and tie fighter ball toss.
And they got to bowl over storm troopers. Its hard to tell, but their were storm troopers taped to the bowling pins.
Next we moved on to our death star pinata. I just put paper mache on a beach ball.
Star Wars Lego Party – Food Table
Then it was time for lunch. The main dish was cheese quesadillas. I had some stars wars ship pancake molds from William and Sonoma. I used them to cut out the tortillas. The kids had the option of an x-wing fighter, millennium falcon, or a tie fighter shaped quesadilla.
We also served Vaderade.
We also had some light-saber looking pretzels…
Jello in the shape of Lego’s and Storm troopers and Darth Vader…
Some Princess Lays…
And some Obi-Wan Kebobis!
HERE is a link to the labels that I used for the food.
My son really wanted a cake, but I didn’t have a lot of confidence in my ability to decorate one. I made cupcakes first as a back up, just in case I failed at the cake. The cake is clearly not professional, but it turned out better then I imagined it would. So we ended up with cake and cupcakes.
The cupcakes are topped with chocolate Darth Vadars and Storm Troopers.
Then for the goodie bag each kid got their own Star Wars mini-figure and a Star Wars fruit snack. It was a simple gift, but they also got to take home their Lego ship and light saber, plus candy from the pinata. I put them in clear bags and taped them shut with a Lego Star Wars sticker.
I got the mini-figures off of eBay. They are actually knock off ones from China, but they are only $1 each. Their quality is great. They work perfectly with Lego’s, you would never be able to tell the difference. At least my 5 year old can’t and that’s all that matters!
We had a great time celebrating Star Wars Lego style!

This is great. We did a star wars party for my oldest a few years ago and I have 2 more boys behind him so Im hoping one of them wants another Star Wars party because lets face it, they are just fun to do. I love your lego star wars idea. Thats a fantastic one. I am totally going to have to use some of your ideas on future parties. Thanks for sharing and linking up so I could find you. 🙂
What a cute party! I love that cake and the lightsabers!

Hello gorgeous! I love seeing your masterpieces.Thank you for bringing such great things to our party. Pinned and tweeted. I hope to see you on Monday at 7 pm.. Lou Lou Girls
Oh my goodness, LOVE this party! We did a Star Wars party for my son a few years ago and we still have those pool noodle life sabers! Lol!
Wow, I think I just died from the amazing cuteness! This party is definately in my son’s future, but I think we will wait until he is older so he remembers all of the awesome-ness.
I love that Cake! So colorful and fun. I often use their characters to decorate cakes; makes it so much simpler than trying to do anything too crazy with the icing.
Now that looks like one fun party!! Thanks for sharing with us at Throwback Thursday!
