Robot Party
categories: fun for kids, kids party ideas, real parties
Creative cupcake guru Hello Naomi is just the coolest! I wish I would’ve stumbled on her adorable robot cupcakes earlier – they would’ve gone perfectly with a robot kids party I recently created! (see below)
Quick party details:
- French Bull Robots Plates & Robots Cups
- “Robot Guy” centerpiece created using empty gift boxes wrapped with colorful gift wrap, googly eyes, metal favor tins, silver glitter chenille craft stems , and paper circles punched from shimmery silver cardstock
- Packs of Pez and Pixie sticks
- Yellow gift wrap “table runner” with circular silver paper “confetti”
- Utensils wrapped with silver glitter chenille craft stems

Adorable! Both the cupcakes AND the party! Makes me wanna have one and I don’t even have any kids. Maybe my SIL can do this for my nephew’s next b-day…

Jun 13, 2008 at 11:18 amHow cute!
It’s a slightly different look than the French Bull, but I was JUST looking at my latest Paper Source catalog the other day and came across this and saved it in my inspiration notebook for a baby boy shower or party someday.

Digging your little robot centerpiece. He makes me giggle.
Jun 13, 2008 at 12:58 pmMy girlfriend is having a Wall-E movie party for her 4 year old son-this would be perfect! So super cute!
Jun 13, 2008 at 1:12 pmWhat a great idea for a boy party. I know my husband would have been thrilled by a robot party when he was a kid

Both your table and the cupcakes are well designed.I attended a robot party last night! Only it was for adults. And people were dressed in foil.
Don’t worry, I just wore my silver flats and told people I had robot feet.
Jun 14, 2008 at 2:21 pmI wish my kids were still little sometimes when I see things like this. Well maybe on my son’s 21st I will have a robot party for him.
Jun 14, 2008 at 11:25 pmI want a robot party!! I’m keeping this in mind when I’m helping friends plan parties or their kids!
Jun 15, 2008 at 2:42 pmWhat a creative little idea for a PARTY!! This looks like something kids would really appreciate it! The cupcakes rock! : )

madebygirl.blogspot.comWhat a great writeup and great ideas! I was doing a write up on throwing a robot party on our blog, and I stumbled across yours. I linked to it here, if you don’t mind… http://www.dabbled.org/2008/06/robot-party-round-up.html
Jun 23, 2008 at 9:13 amHi dot –
I don’t mind at all – thanks so much for the link!Jenn
Jun 23, 2008 at 10:28 amOMG! I love your page. So bright, colourful, friendly, warm… I could go on. You have amazing ideas, and I just want you to know you are fabulous! Keep it up!
Sep 18, 2008 at 3:02 pmUnfortunately the links to the robot plates and cups don’t work. I was so excited to see new robot party items too. Hm…
Sep 29, 2008 at 9:36 pmHi Gina –
Thanks for the heads up – it looks like Loft Party doesn’t carry these items any more, so I just updated the links to go to another store that carries them – Oliebollen.com – so they should work now!

Sep 30, 2008 at 3:53 amWhat a fantastic idea–thanks so much for all the info and links for making them a reality at my house!
Love your place here!
Blessings!
Oct 2, 2008 at 6:45 pmThank you so much for this…my son’s first birthday is coming up and I’m planning a robot theme…lots of great ideas here! Thanks!
Nov 5, 2008 at 6:45 pmI am so thrilled to have found this! My son’s first birthday is also coming up soon and I wanted to do a robot theme that wasn’t too mature for a first birthday. This is PERFECT!! I can’t wait! You have totally inspired me, honestly! Thank you.

Mar 20, 2009 at 12:02 pmI Just love it!!! I’m going to be doing a birthday party for my son with this theme, you guys got me so inspired. What did you use for the top of his head??

That’s actually some sort of screw attachment from our garage (we were making do!) and metallic silver pipe cleaners for the “antenna”Here’s some more robot party inspiration for you from a friend of mine:

Jun 21, 2009 at 11:35 pmI would love to know where you got those plates. I can handle everything else but I have been looking for plates light those for about 2 months now and finally found your site. Do you mind if I ask where you got them!! Thanks!
Jul 14, 2009 at 10:27 amWhat a fantastic party! I will be using some of these ideas for my sons future party! Here is a great site to get personalized robot invitations! Thanks
Jul 29, 2009 at 8:24 amI think that little GIRLS should be encouraged to have robot parties as well! It shouldn’t just be a boy thing– my daughter decided this morning that she wanted a robot party, and I am thrilled that she picked such a cool theme (vs. princess, mermaid, bla bla fluff).
Aug 26, 2009 at 8:21 amAgree with S. Ward! A robot party is just as much for the girls.
Kudos to you! You’ve done a nice job showcasing a robot party table setting (we love the PEZ candies as they are robot like candies, and the use of silver pipe cleaners on the forks ).Your robot centerpiece is sweet, too. We’re linking to your Web site!
Sep 18, 2009 at 7:12 amI thought to share my robot party too
Dec 17, 2009 at 1:45 pm enjoyJust what my daughter has been looking for!!!

Thanks,Grandma to Elliott (his 1st Birthday celebration..on May 18th.)Hi Jenn,

I was wondering what shade of blue did you use for the table cover? My son’s 1st birthday is coming up in July and I would love to use this design concept for his party. Your creativity is very inspiring!Hi Gemma -
I actually used a duvet from IKEA on this table! It was only $15, and too good of a deal to pass up!
But if I was renting a tablecloth for this I’d go for Aqua
May 27, 2010 at 3:40 pmLove it!!!!!! When a great looking table and ideas. My son is having his second bday coming up and this is perfect.
What invitations did you use?
