As a mom of three boys, I enjoyed the good ol’ days when my kids were still small. I remember fondly the race car themed party and their obsession with cars. Now they are older, but I still remember all the fun we had. That doesn’t mean I can’t take that love of cars and turn them into fun printables for other families to enjoy!

So, let’s buckle up and get started!

Party Decorations

When it comes to race car parties, you have a few options for decorating. You can go all out with streamers, balloons, and confetti or choose subtle decorations like pennants and banners. If you want to make your own decorations, there are plenty of free printables available online that you could use.

Or you can look for a variety of race car party supplies such as banners, tablecloths, and napkins on Amazon or Etsy. There are so many options that you can mix and match to create a unique look for your party.

Party Games & Activities

No race car party is complete without some fun activities! Here are some ideas to get you started:

  • Have a Pinewood Derby competition by giving each of the kids their own pinewood car to decorate.
  • Set up a race car set and let the kids compete in a race.
  • Play “red light, green light” and make your own DIY red light green light traffic sign.
  • Create a Lego race track and let the kids design their own Lego cars.
  • Set up a table with race car coloring pages or placemats for the kids to color and design.

Party Food & Drinks

No party is complete without some delicious food and drinks! To keep in theme, you can make some race car inspired treats like cupcakes decorated with flags and cookies shaped like cars.

You could also set up a concession stand with hot dogs, hamburgers, chips, and popcorn for the kids to snack on throughout the party. And for drinks, you can create a special milkshake bar where each of the kids can choose their own ingredients for a delicious race car-inspired treat!

For a special touch, consider making these treats and serving them on personalized plates. This will add an extra special touch to your race car party.

Favors

At the end of the party, you’ll want to make sure that each of the kids goes home with a special memento. Consider packing up some personalized favor bags for each child with race car themed items such as stickers, toy cars, crayons, and coloring books.

You could also include some party favors that are specific to your theme, such as mini flags, license plates, or pit crew t-shirts. This will make the kids feel like they are part of a real race car team!

Another great way to show your appreciation is to have each child take home a framed photo from the party as a keepsake. This will ensure that everyone has something special to remember the day by and can look back on all the fun memories!
