Disney Cars Birthday Party!

"I'm happier than a tornado in a trailer park!"  -Mater

We set up the tables in a big square, the tables were the "track" decorated with white stickers to make the road lines, cups filled with Cars crayons, mini coloring pages, & Cars stickers, and small orange traffic cones with balloons tied to them.  The "infield" was left open for the pinata, tunnel, & a road rug set up with all kinds of cars.  That, coupled with the Melissa & Doug garage, kept them busy for hours.  The set up was great because the kids were in view of their parents {a plus at this age} and when it came time for singing & present opening, everyone could see.

The favors were mini pit crew bags that had a small bag of trail mix & a swirly sucker, each child had a pit crew pass with a Cars character on it, & a name tag to wear at the party.

On the right side of the entrance to the 'track' we had Ramone's House of Body Art set up for the kids to put temporary tatoos on.  They got into this SO much that everyone {including some parents} left with several tatoos.

We had a pull string Ligtening McQueen pinata filled with Cars superballs, die cut Cars characters, stickers, & candies.  It was fantastic because the kids age range was from 18 months - 8 years old, so they each lined up and chose a string to pull {only one string actually pulls the pinata open} and then used their pit crew favor bags to pick up the goodies.

We set up the drink table as Fillmore's Organic Fuels.  The Anti Freeze {lemonade dyed green} and Motor Oil {iced tea} were set up in beverage dispensers that we set up on small Ikea plastic stools to keep them away from small hands.

Food was set up at Flo's V8 Cafe.  The menu included: Sarge's Sloppy Joes, Doc's Guac & Chips, Fillmore's Fruit, Chick's Coleslaw, Sally's Pasta Salad, and 'Mater's Tater Chips.

Desserts were at Sarge's Surplus of Sweets.  I used 8.5 x 11 photo paper to make the "Finn is 3" bunting and simply strung it on ribbon.   The desserts included: stop light rice krispie treats, cookies, chocolate dipsticks, Cars cupcakes {thank you Adrianne!}, & a Lightening McQueen cake.  I made simple cupcake toppers that had Happy Birthday Finn on one side and the #3 on the other.  We also used some simple diecut Cars shapes {from Michael's} to make more cupcake toppers by simply gluing to a sucker stick.

And as a party favor to you, the signs I made are available for you to download FREE at my Google Doc Account {with the Disney characters removed} for you to use.  I would love to see how you use them for your parties, so be sure to link back and tell me to visit your blog.

Edited to add:  Just so everyone knows... I have said this previously, but I am reiterating it.  I will not send the originals with the characters on them.  Those were created for our own personal use.  

I have moved the signs from Scribd {because of issues with printing them and Scribd charging for them} to Google Docs.  You should have no problem accessing them now for free as I had intended.  Please contact me directly at sowonderfulsomarvelous {at} gmail, as I receive a large number of requests and don't always keep up with comments left on old posts.

DOWNLOAD the signs by right clicking on the sign you want, you can save or print from there.


And there you have it... Happy 3rd Birthday Finnegan!

  1. your creativity is ridiculous (in a good way)...but also in a bad way, b/c you do know that now you're going to have to out-do yourself every year, right? :)

  2. I am blown away. As usual. Although now I've come to expect nothing less from your genius mind.

  3. I'm not sure whether your creativity is inspiring or exhausting! Kudos on a fabulous party and an even more fabulous birthday boy. I, er, Elliot had a ton of fun at Finn's party!!!

  4. I am using this stuff for Flynn's 2nd FOR SURE! He is obsessed! His easter basket was CARS themed!

  9. This is a great party. Can you tell me what font you used for your signs? Thank you.

    ReplyDelete
  10. Anon, I'd be happy to try to figure it out if you tell me which sign. I think I used a different one on each.

    ReplyDelete
  11. Your Fillmore and drink sign. Thank you very much.

    ReplyDelete
  12. Sure! That one is Bellbottom from DaFont {free font site} and I used Microsoft Word, the word art and filled it with a rainbow fill.

    Thanks so much for stopping by!

  13. Hi, stumbled across your pictures 'by accident' - am planning my own son's 3rd birthday party here in the UK, in 3 weeks time... Like your son he is obsessed with Lightening McQueen and all things Cars - so we're doing a Cars party for him too.

    I couldn't not leave a comment on your photographs - the whole event looks amazing, beautifully executed & your attention to detail is wonderful. I too have found the chequered bunting, piñata & some other bits - but I'm inspired by your traffic cones, and may copy that idea ;) (thank you)...

    Well done, what a lucky little boy - I hope my party is as successful as yours :)

  14. You have saved my life! Thank you for the signs! I am planning my sons 2nd birthday and it is Cars themed.

    It is funny, I had some of these same ideas in my head and I loved the way you executed them.

  15. Hi, I stumbled across your site by googling cars birthday party as well. Genius ideas that can be easily translated in any setting! Love the signs for different stations, particularly Ramone's Body Art. :) I tried printing out some of the pictures, and it seems the the wording gets cut off, I also loved the addition of the character pictures on the signs you originally used. Is it possible for me to obtain your originals? I totally understand if that doesn't work, just thought I'd ask. :)

    ReplyDelete
  16. I too stumbled across your site via Google. I printed them out to use for my son's birthday party this October, however, the Fillmore's Organic Fuel sign losses some of the text when you print it out because the peace sign text box blocks it. Would it be possible for you to send me a copy of the original version of this sign? I can provide you my email address.

    By the way, as creativity challenged mom I thank you 100 times over for all the wonderful ideas.

    ReplyDelete
  17. Absolutely. Send me your email address to sowonderfulsomarvelous at gmail and I will send the pdf.

  18. Hi Michelle,

    My name is Jenn. You are a genius. I love the decoration and food ideas you used for your son's party. I am doing a Cars party for my son's 3rd birthday. I would love to know what font you used for the stop lights? I cannot find the font. What did you use for the chocolate dipsticks? I would love to do those for his birthday.

    Thank You So Much,

    Jenn

    ReplyDelete
  19. Hi Jenn!

    That font is Carbon Block. Most of the fonts I've used in the past were from dafont.com so I am guessing that's where I got it.

    The chocolate dipsticks were made with the half size pretzle rods (I think I got them at Costco?) and just dipped in chocolate, and set to dry on a sheet of waxed paper.

    Hope that helps!

  25. Hi Michelle, I came across your website google-ing ideas for my son Jake's 3rd Bday...what you you did for your lil man is amazing! I definately will use your ideas as a guide since I couldn't imagine anything better. Jacob's bday falls right around when Cars 2 will hit theaters (I know, I started early - his bday is in June). I tried your signage link but couldnt access the signs. I was wondering if you would be willing to share the signs with me via email. If so, I would really appreciate it. I will definately frequent your blog since you seem to be an extremely talented mommy and I'm always looking for ideas to make things interesting for Jake.

  33. Such an awesome party!!!! Congrats on your creativity!! My son will turn 3 in late September and he's a Cars fan as well, so I will take some of your ideas for his birthday party. Since we live in Buenos Aires, Argentina, our language is Spanish so I was wondering if you could tell me the font you used for the different signs that you're kindly sharing. Thanks so much in advance,

  43. Hi Michelle,

    I stumble across your website while searching for ideas for my sons cars party. I was totally blown away by your creativity and talent. Everything looks beautiful and looks it was a great party. But i am having problems printing the signs and I love your original signs. So I was wondering if you could be so kind to email me the originals I will gladly appreciate it. My email is dulce_elsa@yahoo.com thanks.

    ReplyDelete
  44. Just so everyone is clear... I will be more than happy to email the CARS signage without the characters on it. (These are similar to those in the photos but do not have the characters on them.) These are the ones that are posted on Scribd for download. They may ONLY be used for your personal use and may not be sold or distributed elsewhere.

    ReplyDelete
  45. WOW! That's my first thought- just, WOW! My son Caleb is excited to turn 4 years old in a couple weeks with a Cars party, and I will definitely be using some of your ideas with the "body art", the creative food names, and I did print off the signs for each area. Is it also possible to send me the signs for the lemonade and tea? Pretty please? I am a bit overwhelmed at how I would make them myself, but think it is the perfect touch for the party! Thank you also for providing your "sources" so that I can track down some of the other special party items. I will send you some pics! Keep up the GREAT work!

Thank you for inspiring me to organize my thoughts into quite a spectacular image. I love your tables, the organic fuel, and the stoplights...amongst all the rest! I will definitely be sharing your printables, too...gracias! Wish I lived next door to you! Keep posting...I'm also in love with your Halloween buffet...is it October, yet?

  47. Oh my gosh!! I love love love your ideas! I have googled everything there is to google about a Cars theme party, and your ideas are by far the best!! My sons 2nd birthday party is in two weeks, and I will definitely be using all of your ideas :) I have already spread the word about your site, and I have two other moms also throwing Cars theme birthdays inspired by your site :) I would be very grateful, if I could get an email of all the different station signs including the motor oil and anti freeze, also the colorful Flo's cafe sign....Thank you so much for all your time and hard work!! Your little guy is an absolute doll, and lucky to have such a great mommy :)

  49. I'm not sure which font it was {Finn's party was a year and a half ago} but I got all the fonts at www.dafont.com and it was in the retro section, same with the font for Fillmore's stuff. The font for sarge was in the military section.

    Hope that helps!

  50. And Ramone's stuff was a graffiti font.

  51. Wow, You did a fabulous job on this party! I love your ideas!!! I look at a lot of blogs and have scoured the internet and this is one of the best Disney Cars parties I have seen, with such attention to detail. You obviously put A LOT of thought into it.

  98. Fabulous. What an inspiration you are. My almost 4 year old is Cars mad, and of course the theme for his birthday will be 'Cars'. I have taken your offer and downloaded the signs, and will send you photos. Mind you, it's not until the end of May, but there is so much for me to do that I am starting STAT!!!!

  101. Thanks for all of the AMAZING Cars party ideas, and for all of the downloadable signs too! I threw a Cars birthday party for my son Caleb using them, and added a few new touches too (like personalized Road Signs and a "road" made of black trash bags and white tape "road dividers"). You are an inspiration! Keep up the great work! http://craftyparty.webs.com/cars-2

  102. Thank you so much for sharing this amazing party. My son is over the moon about cars so this year we are doing his birthday party as a cars theme and I love the ideas you had. I had a hard time downloading the awesome signs you created would you be able to send those to me via email? It would be such a life/time saver for sure.

    Again great work very talented.

  106. Hi Michelle!
    You did an amazing job! My son like many other little boys wants a cars themed birthday party. I was wondering if at all possible you'd be willing to email me the originals from your signs? If not i understand but i LOVE them! It's such a great idea. Also i search OT for the pit crew bags and can't find them to save my life lol If you could maybe email me the link? I don't know if they still sell them even. Thank you

  108. Hi Michelle, Your son's party looks amazing. I am doing a Cars themed party for my son this month and would love to be able to use your signs - if that would be all right. I tried to download them from this site per your link above, but I could not get it to work. If I provided my email address, would you be willing to send me the pdf version? Your site has provided so many wonderful ideas - I am not sure where to begin! -Liz

  109. Hi Michelle. I just found your blog post about this party. Incredible! Can I get you to email me the original signs as well? It would not let me download them for some reason. Email: khammeltx@hotmail.com

    If not, how did you get the cars pictures on there? Thanks!

  110. Just so everyone knows... I have said this previously, but I am reiterating it. I will not send the originals with the characters on them. Those were created for our own personal use.

    I created the signs in the style of Cars without the characters for your party use. If you can not print from Scribd for some reason, I'll be happy to send you those signs via email. Please contact me directly at sowonderfulsomarvelous {at} gmail, as I receive a large number of requests and don't always keep up with comments.

  112. We love all the ideas and signage! Making my job 10 times easier to put on a fabulous party. One question: What did you use the Luigi's Casa Della Tires sign for? Thanks!

    ReplyDelete
  113. Great question! We ended up not using that one! We had intended on using a tire and having a bean bag toss into the tire, but ended up deciding to skip it!

    ReplyDelete
  114. Awesome, that is what we ended up doing! Thanks again!
