The Jurassic Park: Dinosaur-Themed Decorations

One of the most important things to consider when planning a dinosaur-themed party is the decorations.

If you're crafty, you can make your own dinosaur-themed decorations using items like construction paper, streamers, and balloons—and speaking of balloons!

No party is complete without a decal sticker somewhere in the room—a dinosaur-themed one, no less. Gage Beasley's Cartoon Dinosaur Kids Bedroom Wall Decal Sticker is your best bet in creating a wonderful, reptile-esque aura in any living quarters. Makes for a nice pop in color, too. 

You can really let your imagination run wild. Hang green streamers and balloons around the party area, and set up a table full of dino-themed party favors. For added fun, create a photo booth with dinosaur props, or set up a craft station where kids can make their own dinosaur masks or puppets.

Or, you can save yourself some time and effort by purchasing pre-made decorations at your local party store. Either way, make sure to go all out to create a fun and festive atmosphere for your guests.

The Omninomnomvaurs: Dinosaur-Themed Food

One of the most important aspects of any birthday party is the food, and a dinosaur-themed party is no exception. If you want to get really creative, you can make your own dinosaur-shaped snacks and treats.

Cut sandwiches into triangular shapes and add some green frosting for scales, or make Rice Krispie Treats in the shape of dinosaur bones. For drinks, serve up green punch or soda in plastic cups with dinosaur stickers on them. And of course, no birthday party is complete without a birthday cake!

You can either make your own dinosaur-shaped cake or cupcakes, or simply decorate an existing cake with dinosaurs and trees. Whatever you choose, make sure to have plenty of food and drinks on hand to keep your little guests happy and fueled up for all the fun ahead.

Roaring for Fun: Dinosaur-Themed Party Games

Now that you've got the decorations and food taken care of, it's time to start planning some fun activities for your partygoers. Games are always a hit at kids' parties, and there are plenty of great options to choose from when throwing a dinosaur-themed bash.

A dino-egg hunt is always popular, and you can hide plastic eggs filled with candy or small toys around the party area for kids to find. For a more active game, try a Jurassic Park-inspired Dino Scavenger Hunt, where kids have to search for dinosaur bones hidden around the house or yard. Or, keep it simple with a game of Pin the Tail on the Dinosaur.

No matter what games you choose, they're sure to be a hit with your young guests. Of course, no birthday party would be complete without some good old-fashioned dino-themed fun! So make sure to have plenty of dinosaur toys on hand for the kids to play with.

Nothing better than dinosaur plushies, and large ones at that! Gage Beasley's Large T-Rex Dinosaur Soft Stuffed Plush Toy is the perfect toy to accompany the party—but not just that. Once the party is over, this big guy can always hang out in your room and have some even more fun!
