Everett's Construction Truck & Tool Party

Everett loves tools and trucks, so of course we had to do a construction party for his 3rd birthday!  I made his invitations...

I made a wreath for the front door with extension cord...

 And put caution tape on all the windows...

Cones up the walkway...

And my dad made this AMAZING crane and wrecking ball...the ball is a pinata!!!!

I made the whole family matching shirts...mine, Gary's and Ella's said "crew" on the back, but Everett's said, "foreman". ;)

Gary made this adorable kid size "work table" with mini saw horses for legs, and we cut up a bunch of wood scraps to make blocks for the kids to build with...

The kids loved it!

I made coloring books and set up a coloring table with tools stickers and crayons in a tool box of course!
The coloring books had pages like this...

The sweets table...

I made cookies in put them in Gary's drill case...

We had this huge digger bounce house in the corner...

Everett and his two BFFs from school...

Cupcakes!

Pinata time!

The favors...they said "Hope you had tons of fun!"

I have to say, I think this was my favorite party to plan so far!  And despite the on and off rain for an outdoor party, I think everyone had a great time. :)

  1. This is a great party idea and I want to try this on this birthday of my son. I have hired venues at San Francisco venues but I cannot plan this party myself and that is why I was wondering if you can suggest me some good local planner.

    1. I couldn't find anything! I know I did a google search to find it- I probably searched digger bouncer or bulldozer bouncer or something like that??

  5. Hey, this is great! How did you make the wrecking ball for the piñata? How did you put the wire on it?
