Birthday party ideas: Dinosaurs
Activities
Kids will have a blast trying to grab tiny dinosaur eggs (marbles) with dino chopsticks.

The loot
Kids can have their own Jurassic Park with plastic pals.

Decor
Pick up a “piñatasaurus” filled with treats.

Food: Dino-wiches with fossils and dino eggs
Create dino- and bone-shaped sandwiches using dinosaur- and bone-shaped cookie cutters. Fill some with cucumbers and tomatoes for herbivores and some with cheese and meat for carnivores. Serve with fossils (pretzels dipped in yogurt or white chocolate) and dino eggs (mix of jelly beans and candy-coated chocolate eggs).
