Jack's Ninja Warrior 7th birthday party

My eldest son, Jack loves lego. In particular ninjago lego. Jack wanted to share his love of ninjago and Japan, with his friends and family. So I got planning, and created a super, fun Japanese-inspired ninja warrior celebration for his for seventh birthday. For all the party highlights, check out the blog: https://mylittlepartyaustralia.com/2018/04/21/a-japanese-inspired-ninja-warrior-party/

  We provided a dorinku (Japanese for drink) station complete with ninja warrior water and ninja power potion to quench their thirst.

• Desserts

  We had the great pleasure of having Lisa from Cakes to Celebrate by Lisa create the incredible ninjago-inspired masterpiece. The birthday cake was two tiers of absolute goodness. The top tier a heavenly vanilla cake with vanilla buttercream, and the base tier was a deliciously moist chocolate cake with chocolate buttercream.

• Party Favors

  Little Jack was eager to show his gratitude to each little party guest, so suggested I organise an arigato gift station where his little friends could collect their thank you gift. We popped fortune cookies in a noodle box and topped it with a cute personalised tag.

• Activities / Games

  On this occasion we organised a colouring station, using the Japanese language: Atisuto Station (artist / colouring station). And a Ninjago station, we loaded a table with lego, and lego accessories which gave the little ones and the grown-ups too an opportunity to use their imagination, and create fun ninjago-inspired stories. We were delighted with Josh the Master Sensei from Parties Kids Remember who took the little ones through some serious ninja warrior training for the birthday battle! Our little party guests were delighted with all the fun games, prizes and activities, especially with these gorgeous ‘Ninja Training awards’ created by Alison from Just Add Confetti.

  Invitations set the tone of the celebration, and I love to splash out and order chic, well-designed, customised invitations. I wanted to build the excitement with Jack’s friends and family, so got creative with the wording for the invitation, adding a few Japanese elements. The incredibly talented Alison, from Just Add Confetti created a fabulous design, which carried right through from the invitation to all elements of the event stationery.
