Here is an outline of what you would need to throw a construction themed birthday party for your little one.

Refreshments

When it comes to the refreshments you need to remember that the food at this party isn’t really going to be for the actual one year old. It is going to be for your close family and friends that are helping your celebrate this big day.

Candy Rocks – Chocolate candy rocks are a must as they really add to the décor and actually taste pretty good. How can you go wrong with anything chocolate at a party.

Orange Punch – The theme of the party is pretty much orangetastic so if you decide on orange Kool-Aid or just orange soda you won’t can’t go wrong.

Apple Cars – Who doesn’t like food that is made into cars. Apple cars are a quick and easy way to keep your construction theme going while creating a tasty snack. Click here for a quick tutorial on how to make them.
