Dinosaur Party Theme Supplies

Is it just me, or have Dinosaurs become less scary and more trendy of late?

Prehistoric and scary or cool and friendly, kids love them and it makes a great birthday party theme for all ages and for both boys and girls alike. Bold primary colours, pretty pastels, jungle foliage or patterns – they’ve got it all going on! Even making very cool plant or flower holders as centrepieces!

Here is some inspiration to get you started and a round up of Dinosaur party finds from our Celebrate Society members! CLICK on any image to be taken to that business

Dinosaur Invitations & Stationery

Invitations are a great way to set the scene for a fun-filled party of ROARsome adventures as well as set your colour palette for decorating on the day. Here are some fantastic Dinosaur party invites:

Dinosaur Decorations

For a more modern dinosaur party theme, keep colours in a bold, monochrome or pastel palette and introduce pops of metallics and props. Or for an older age group, you can’t go past a jungle set up with lots of greenery and natural textures.

Dinosaur Tableware

Treat your party of hungry dinosaurs to a feast at a table their prehistoric friends would be in envy of with these fun and coordinated Dinosaur party tableware finds.

Dinosaur Cakes, Desserts and Accessories

Style up a storm with dino-shaped cookies or try dinosuar donuts or lollipops instead. But of course there are some epic cakes of prehistoric proportions you can find and adorn them with toppers or toys!

Dinosaur Favours

When it comes time for the dinosaurs to retreat back to their caves, send them on their way with a little thank-you for helping make it a ROARsome party.

Dorothy the Dinosaur gender-neutral theme

One of Life’s Little Celebrations followers requested a ‘Dorothy the Dinosaur for a boy’ blog post! This is a difficult one since a lot of Dorothy the Dinosaur items are for girls or have pink involved.

However I’ve tried to put together some ideas here of how you could perhaps decorate for this theme – however I apologise as I couldn’t find too much!

When decorating for a party based around a particular character, you don’t need to go down the track of having the licensed character’s plates, cups, decorations etc. You can base the decorations around the colour scheme of the character or some other aspect of the character.

So I’ve based the choices for this party around green and yellow and yellow polkadots with a few Dorothy the Dinosaur items. This is an easy way to style the party while still bringing the theme out.

I have done a previous theme on a general Dinosaur theme and you could incorporate elements from this also into this party theme. You can find that blog post here.

Invitations

It was quite difficult to find Dorothy the Dinosaur invitations which had no pink! This was the only one I could source:

These bottle cap printables could be used on cups, mini bottles, gift tags or as toppers:

 

Decorations

Decorate using the main colours of green and yellow polka dots. You could also choose another colour to mix in with this colour combination (possibly red, or perhaps brown/natural tones). Just a few Dorothy the Dinosaur items can be used around the party to emphasise the theme such as this Dorothy the Dinosaur balloon:

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

This Dorothy the Dinosaur tail and plush toy (which both come in different sizes) could be used as decorations/props at the party as well as fun gifts for the birthday child after the party too:

 

I’d suggest having a look around the shops as well as it might be easy to find some Dorothy the Dinosaur items which you cannot find online or even things such as Dorothy the Dinosaur wrapping paper or cards which you could cut out and make some decoration items from.

Sweet Treats

These Dorothy the Dinosaur cupcake toppers can be ordered  as a way of decorating your cupcakes:

 

You could also use green icing for your cupcakes and then pop them in these baking cups and use the yellow polka dot cupcake toppers shown below:

 

These cute cake pops look fantastic! Click on the link for the receipe:

These green and yellow polkadot cups are perfect for this colour scheme – you could fill them with various treats on the table:

Favour bags:

For favours you could use general Dinosaur theme favours (some ideas are found in my Dinosaur theme post) or go with a musical feel such as mini musical instruments. Use a packaging option to match in with your colour scheme:

 

These jute sacks are cute and great if you are adding a natural element into the Dorothy the Dinosaur theme:

Rather than a few little novelty items or lollies you could give each child a Dorothy the Dinosaur book such as this one:
