Minion Birthday Party Decorations
Turn yellow party cups into minion cups! Glue googly eyes onto the cups, then use a black marker to draw on hair and a mouth.
Attach eyes and a mouth made from black paper onto yellow Chinese lanterns. Hang these around the party.
Use all yellow plastic utensils on a blue plastic tablecloth, or all blue plastic utensils on a yellow plastic tablecloth.
Dress up birthday party guests as characters in the movie. A pink dress and tights makes an easy Scarlett, and blue overalls with a yellow t-shirt transforms people into minions!
Hang blue and yellow streamers from the ceiling and twist all the way to the floor. Put alternating blue and yellow balloons at the top of the streamers. If you do this in front of a wall, it makes a nice backdrop for a food or gift table! Or use for a birthday picture backdrop where kids can take photos of themselves using Minion birthday props.
For an interesting birthday backdrop idea, cut out pictures of minions and paste them onto paper plates. Arrange the paper plates behind the food or gift table. You can arrange these to make a certain shape, such as the age of your child, or just do a 5 by 5 square.
Minion Party Invitations
Make minions out of blue and yellow construction paper. Put the birthday party information on the back of the minion.
Make an invitation to the villain conference the minions attend in the movie. Include all the information for the party on the invitation.
Make Minion movie tickets for the guests with all the party information posted on them.
Steal the Crown
The goal of this fun Minion game is for teams to try and find the other
teams hidden crown.
Break everyone into two teams.
Give each team a toy crown.
Instruct the teams that they will have 2 minutes to find a place to hide
their teams crown around the party area.
Give the teams time alone to find a good hiding place for their crown.
On "go" the teams search the birthday party area to try and find the other
teams crown. The team to find the crown first wins a small prize or
play several round and let the winning team be the one who finds the crown
the most out of 10 times. To make this game harder for older children, incorporate freeze tag into the game by having team members tag other members of the team. The tagged
player is then frozen until a member from their team untags them.
Minion Egg Toss
Before the party decorate eggs with blue and yellow paint so that they look like minions.
Use a black marker to draw on eyes and a mouth.
During the party pair the guests into groups of two and give
each pair a Minion decorated egg.
Have the guests stand five steps away from their partner and toss their minion egg to their partner.
If the partner catches the egg, have
each partner take one step back. If the egg is dropped then that team is out
of the game. All remaining teams toss the egg again. Teams that
catch their egg take one step back from each other and the teams that drop
their eggs are out.
Continue game play until there is only one team who has not dropped their
Minion egg!
Minion Search
Combine blue and yellow plastic eggs so that they look like minions. Use googly eyes and a black marker to give the minions eyes, mouth, and hair.
Before the party hide these minions around the party for the guests to find.
Give each party guest a yellow or blue paper sack to collect their minions.
On "go" have all the party guests search for the eggs. After a certain
time limit or once all the eggs have been found count to see who has the most
Minion eggs. Give that person a prize and hide the eggs again for
another round!
Variation: Number the Minion eggs with a number on the bottom of each
egg in permanent marker. Once the eggs have been collected let the
finders of the eggs trade their egg for a prize that corresponds with the
number on the bottom of the eggs they have found during the game.
Or fill the Minions with candy and small prizes that the boys and girls get
to keep when the game is over.
This is a fun game for kids of all ages and they will want to play several
rounds!
