Construction Party Games and Activities

When guests arrive suit them up in their hard hats and construction vests

While waiting for guests to arrive they can play with lego and other building blocks

Sand Relay You'll need sand, shovels and a couple of buckets or pails. Form two lines with the guests and everyone stands in line with a shovel. When it is their turn they take a scoop of sand and run it over to the bucket, dump it in and return to the line. Then the next goes in line. They are finished when the team reaches the marked line on the pail.

Make and decorate a paper bag tool box. Use plain white paper bags and markers

Tool Scavenger hunt Hide a number of tools and send the guests out with their paper bag tool box to fill. Give them a card that has pictures of the tools they are to find. E.g., find one of each: hammer, screw driver, wrench, etc.

Truck Race Have each guest race a dump truck through an obstacle course made out of construction cones

Construction Zone (remember safety first) have a table with odd pieces of wood, nails, hammers, sand paper, etc. Build and create a masterpiece then paint it. Remember to wear safety goggles, hard hat, and watch all your safety percussions.
