Birthday party idea: Dinosaurs
We recently celebrated my daughter's birthday. We threw her a dinosaur party and it was a huge success. Here's what we did:
Party Idea: Dinosaurs
Gender: Either but this party was for a girl
Age range: We had from 1-5 year-olds
Activities: Decorating the buckets, hunting outside for 'dinosaur' eggs
Decorations: I made pennants and used an orange and pink color scheme.
Each party guest received a bucket with dinosaur stickers inside.
They spent the first part of the party decorating their buckets with the stickers.
Once all the guests arrived, and the buckets were as completed as they were going to get, we let the kids into the backyard where we'd hidden about 200 plastic eggs filled with dinosaur stickers, mini-dinosaurs, and candy.
After the egg hunt, the kids got to eat some snacks from the table before we did cake and presents.
It was a huge hit for all the kids and especially the birthday girl.
Resources:
Dino stickers, balloons, paper products were purchased from www.partyallready.com
Eggs, dino stickers, and inflatable dinosaurs were purchased from www.orientaltrading.com
Buckets were purchased from Michaels
Instructions for pennants:
Pennant dimensions are 4" wide and 8" long so you can get three from a 12x12 piece of cardstock. Letters were created using 130pt Tempus Sans font, printed, then punched using 2.5" circle punch. I punched the two top corners with small punch then thread through ribbon to hang.
Many thanks to Jessica Fuhriman from craftily-ever-after.blogspot.com for help and inspiration. Thank you also to Janis Rooker for the original egg hunt/bucket decorating idea.
