Dinosaur Birthday Party

November 08, 2011

Roarrr...DINOS are on the loose! Make your prehistoric dinosaur hunter feel like a hero leading an archeological dig. Beware of unauthorized excavations in your yard, but maybe a little hide 'n seek, with a herd of stegosaurus doing the hiding amongst the trees and bushes? It's all imaginative adventure seeking.

Party Invitations

  • Cut out dinosaur footprints from cardstock. Print the party details on the feet. Guarantee an historic good time.

Party Decorations

  • Make extra dinosaur footprints while making invitations. Place the footprints at your home entryway and let the prints lead the way to where the party activities will take place.

  • Place inflatable dinos throughout the party space.

  • Let the dino cake take center stage on the table. Place small dinos at each place setting.

Party Games & Activities

  • Look for rubber "dino noses" at a party store (it's hysterical to see little ones with these on!), along with a T-Rex pinata. Fill with "dinosaur eggs" (malted milk balls, jaw breaker candy, or large jelly beans).

  • Stage a fossil hunt...send the kids out to find large rocks you've hidden in the yard.  Let them decorate their rocks with markers or acrylic paint to look "old".

  • Make a lifesize cardboard dino. Cut a hole where kids can put their head and have pictures taken.
