Who doesn’t love a good party? I know I do, and so does my 6 year old! She was very excited to get the chance to invite some friends over for a Mega Bloks Barbie party. We had this awesome opportunity thanks to Mega Bloks, MommyParties and MomSelect. They provided us with the Mega Bloks Barbie Build ‘n Style Luxury Mansion, Mega Bloks Barbie Build ‘n Style Pool Party, and 10Mega Bloks Build ‘n Style Kiosks.
My daughter helped with the party planning. We served fruit smoothies and a variety of tasty snacks. As soon as the girls arrived they were ready to get to building! Each child chose a Build ‘n Style Kiosk. There were two choices, a fashion stand and an ice cream cart. They all wanted to open them up right away, so they did. The pieces are tiny, and there are lots of pieces! I found that it was a little difficult for some of the five and six year old girls to put the pieces together. The step by step instructions are great and easy to follow. With a little help all of the girls eventually got their sets together. They enjoyed putting their dolls together as they come with different outfits and accessories. They happily showed off their dolls and most came up with different looks.
After putting the little sets together it was time for some smoothies and snacks. Next we had planned to put the bigger sets together. I had wished I had already put them together as it does take some time. I had the girls choose one of the sets to play with and they all wanted the Mega Bloks Luxury Mansion. I opened the box and was a bit overwhelmed by all the pieces. There are 301 pieces! The pieces are tiny, and definitely not recommended for those under 4. My two year old tried desperately to get her hands on the pieces as they are very cute and appealing to little ones. Some girls helped while other splayed with their sets. Once the Luxury Mansion was done they all really enjoyed it! They all wanted one for themselves as well.
I can definitely see the girls playing with the Mega Bloks Barbie toys often. It’s great for imaginative pretend play. Although the box states these are for ages 4 and up, I think the older the better. The younger girls will most likely need some help from adults to put everything together while older girls will probably be able to get it together on their own by following the simple directions.. Although my daughter tried her best, she still needed lots of help. Once it’s built, it’s perfect for them though. It’s a great product and I know my daughter will be asking to add to her collection! These types of toys seem to usually be geared towards boys which is why I love that Mega Bloks has made this Barbie collection available!

I bet your girls loved the Barbie sets! I have 2 little boys, but this is something my little cousin would love :). I wish I could have seen how awesome they looked once built!
My cousin does have a June B-day coming up I think I def. know what I’m getting her!!
This looks like so much fun! Do they do Mega Blocks parties for boys?
Very Fun! I haven’t seen one for boys.
It looks like it was a lot of fun.. Great pictures..
This looks soooo cool. If you feel like sharing contacts I would so be interested. Thank you for sharing!
It’s amazing all the cute stuff they are coming out with now. Wish we would have had some of this stuff around when I was a kid.
Glad to see you loved it!

What a fun party! We love Mega Bloks – my just turned 3 year old uses them daily! Love the options they have now adays!
I didnt even know there were Mega Blocks that were Barbie themed! Cute!
Looks like you girls had a blast.
Great advice about putting together before hand. We learned that the hard way on Christmas morning with a MegaBlocks Hello Kitty set.
What a fun party for the girls! My kids love building!
My daughter would love these! SO FUN!
This sounds like an awesome party! Barbies, MegaBlocks and Pink? Yes please. Thanks so much for sharing your blog on my FB page, I’m loving it!
This is adorable! I will have to keep this in mind for when my daughter’s a little older. Lovely review!
This looks like such a good idea for girls!
This is pretty awesome, my girls love barbies!
Looks like a lot of fun! My daughter LOVES her Barbies!
This is really cool I had no idea they had parties like this! Normally they are just jewelry or “mommy” related things! Thanks for sharing 🙂
Awww this is so cute. I’ve never had much Barbie experience while growing up because they were so expensive. But this mega bloks is too cute to ignore.
Great change from the usual Barbie products. She kind of turned into Polly Pocket though, didn’t she? 🙂
This looks like a ton of fun for girls.
That looks like so much fun! I LOVED Barbie when I was a kid!
I love Barbie even now 🙂
