Simple And Quick Dino Party
My son, Brighton, was turning four, and we were in a very busy time of year. I looked at some different themes that I thought would be simple and quick. Then Brighton got to choose from them. He chose a Dino themed party.
We live pretty close to the Thanksgiving Point Dinosaur Museum, and they recently opened a fun and interactive Dino playland with lots of slides and games. We have a pass there this year, so my kids got in free, and his few friends that came were 1/2 off. It only cost about $50 to bring my kids and Brighton’s friends.
To make this party quick and easy, I ordered some fun items from Amazon. Brighton loved helping assemble the party favor boxes.
I got the egg cakes (this was around Easter time, so they were ready to purchase) from Maceys.
We had a blow-up Dino costume my older son once wore for Halloween, and he dressed up in that as a surprise, and Brighton and his friends loved being chased by a T-Rex.
The kids had a blast. It only took about an hour of planning and ordering and another hour of assembly and shopping. It cost about $100.
Brighton and his friends loved it. So did I! I didn’t know you are not allowed to have party stuff on the grounds of the Dino museum without paying for the expensive party room until months afterwards when I read something on their website about it… oops.
That said, they did not come out and stop us or tell us to leave so that was nice.

Now that I know, I wouldn’t do it again but it was quick, inexpensive, easy and the kids—especially Brighton had a blast.
