You’ll also find the cutest invitation that you can edit and print at home, as well as budget-friendly party goodies and activities. Oh, and don’t forget to look at the centerpiece and outdoor party ideas.
Dinosaurs Balloons
These beautiful and quirky dinosaur balloons will transport you back to the Jurassic period. Before the celebration, have your kids put them together by gluing cut-out heads, legs, and tails to balloons, then adding googly eyes. Set up a lively greeting with these dinosaur footsteps and a birthday banner leading up to your house.
Dinosaur balloons are a simple table decoration idea! It’ll be a hit with the kiddos! It’s also really inexpensive, as you’re likely to have a few small dinosaur toys sitting around the house. Put some birthday balloons on them and you’ve got some amazing dinosaur centerpieces and decorations.
Table Setting
For the celebration, you can set up three large tables. All of the food is on the main party table. Dinosaur dig table, dinosaur food table, and dining table with dinosaur place settings for each child
It will look great if the dinosaur party is green and khaki in color and has a jungle feel to it. The meal table was put up beneath a hut with palm trees and large tropical leaves behind it, which was exactly what I wanted. It looked like something out of Jurassic Park!
Burlap, tropical foliage, small logs, and giant boulders adorn the table. All of these details gave the table a natural sense, as if it had been put up in the middle of the forest at the time when dinosaurs walked the world.
The kids sat at their dinosaur dining table, which was covered in all things dinosaur, once they had their supper. Dinosaurs stood upright in the middle of the table, looking for their next meal.
Dinosaur and tropical leaf place mats were laid on top of dinosaur dig plates and white plastic plates.
T-Rex Plates
Because dinosaur party supplies are popular among younger children, you can find them in a variety of stores. We got the majority of ours from Amazon and a local party store.
We had the super cool T-rex party plates, but they are quite expensive. I also purchased matching green plates and napkins. Because solid party supplies are usually less expensive, it’s a great way to save money while still sticking to a theme!
Volcano Cake with Exploding Lava Dinosaur
Let’s start with something completely different, like Oh So Delicious’s exploding lava dinosaur volcano cake. This is the most difficult cake on the list, so if you can master it, you can master them all. This dinosaur volcano cake is sure to impress. It’s definitely worth a shot with an easy-to-follow tutorial.
Dinosaur Dig Cake
Why not try something different, like this dinosaur dig cake from Sprinkle Bakes, instead of the traditional looking dinosaur cakes? You can make this super simple cake by simply using dinosaur molds. To find out how, follow the tutorial.
Dino Fossil
With these lovely fossil T-rex biscuits, you can pretend you’re at an archeological dig. The cookie cutters take all of the hard work out of making these amazing little creations once you’ve made the sugar cookie batter. Allow the youngsters to paint some cinnamon sugar onto the fossil using small paint brushes to turn it into an activity.
Dinosaur Footprints Cookie Pizza
It would be fun to have dinosaur footprints on chocolate chips and peanut butter candies. It’s similar to seeing dinosaur footprints in the wild and having them set in stone with rocks.
Making Dinosaur Footprints Cookie Pizza is simple, enjoyable, and the kids will adore it! Plus, you don’t have to make the cookies from scratch. To make it, you can use any refrigerated cookie dough! Please refer to this recipe for assistance in making these cookie pizzas.
Dinosaur Rice Krispie Treats
Making dinosaur Rice Krispie Treats is a simple and enjoyable creative project. The only other significant difference is that you use a cookie cutter and decorate them at the end. But it’s all very simple and a lot of fun. Start with the original Rice Krispie Treat recipe and then add food coloring.
Dinosaur Coloring Pages
Your dinosaur themed party will be a lot more fun and lively if you have a couple of unique games for the kids to play. With plenty of games for the baby dinosaurs, you can keep your party from devolving into a Jurassic Park situation.
While the kiddies wait for the cake, they can color these personalized dinosaur coloring pages. You can set up a dinosaur egg hunt and egg toss, or make your own savage decor with dinosaur crafts.
Fossil Dig
Another idea is a fossil dig! When you disclose their very own archeological dig site, even the older kids will be happy to jump into the sandbox. Hide little plastic dinosaur toys or fake fossil skeletons in the sand and give out paint brushes to carefully dig them out. Examine everyone’s discoveries together to see if you can name every dinosaur you see.
Dino Puzzle
Here is a complete free printable puzzle pack! You could have these for older children to enjoy while the younger children play in the dinosaur dig.
Another excellent idea, particularly for toddler birthday parties, is to provide crafts for the children to complete. What crafts you choose to do will undoubtedly be determined by the age of the children in attendance. I’ve compiled a list of fun dinosaur crafts for kids that would be ideal for your dinosaur birthday party!

Dinosaurs’ Eggs
Transform white chocolate Easter egg sweets into dinosaur eggs to brighten up your party. Put them in dishes throughout the house or give them away as favors. Allow the honoree to pick the colors and assist in rolling the candy in sprinkles.
Dinosaur themed Crayons
After the party, send a little happiness home with a themed party treat. Look for miniature dinosaur bubbles or dinosaur-themed crayons to play with long after the party is done, as all parents enjoy a simple activity for their children. Add some dinosaur eggs to the mix, which hatch into fascinating forms in the water.

T-Rex Plush Dinosaur & Coloring Book
Have you seen these washable plush dolls for kids? They’re fantastic! They color, you wash them, and then they can color again! This one also includes a book.
Speaking of dinosaurs, as a mom, you might wonder why your kids really adore dino so much?! Well, it may be because young children see and feel themselves as small, insignificant, vulnerable, powerless, and fearful of others but not able to inspire fear from others. Children like to pretend.
Children crave the feeling of being large, powerful, and fearsome because they want to have power, they want to feel they can manipulate others… and they don’t feel that way in of themselves. Dinosaurs represent their hidden desires and feelings and make a wonderful outlet to them.
It’s a no-fail theme that will appeal to a wide range of children’s personalities, and it can be done at home or at an event space at any time of year. Another plus is that it easily lends itself to a variety of entertaining activities and cute decor.
