dinosaur party games and THEME ideasDino Dig Discovery Adventure |
 Dinosaur Toy Fossils |
Embark on a thrilling prehistoric excavation! Young paleontologists will dig, sift, and brush their way to uncover hidden treasures, from ancient dinosaur bones to colorful fossils, in a realistic and hands-on archaeological adventure. Who will uncover the most artifacts or the rarest find?
Objective:
To unearth hidden dinosaur bones or fossils buried in sand and collect the most treasures or a specific rare find to win a prize.
Game play:
Explore the Site: Kids take turns digging and sifting through the sand using tools provided to uncover hidden treasures.
Careful Excavation: Using brushes, they carefully clean off their finds to identify bones, fossils, or other hidden objects.
Count & Compare: At the end of the activity, players count their discoveries. Bonus prizes can be given for special finds, such as rare colors or unique shapes.
Supplies:
Set-up:
Prepare the Sand: A few days before the event, fill the kiddie pool or container halfway with clean sand.
Bury the Treasures: Hide the plastic dinosaurs, bones, or other objects at varying depths. Ensure some are easy to find, while others are buried deeper for an added challenge.

dinosaur party games and ideas
dino tail limbo
To make your dinosaur tail, you will need one or two green poster boards, strong tape, and a broomstick. Cut a zigzag from one corner of a long side of the poster board to the other corner of the long side, without meeting the other side. If done properly, you will end up with duplicate zigzags. If it doesn’t work out quite that way, you have that backup sheet to work with. Decorate them with spots or stripes if you like. Then fold the bottom flat sides of the zigzags over about four inches all the way across to make long tabs. Wrap the tabs around the stick and tape them. Make sure that they are taped to the broomstick itself somewhere, so they don’t slide. You’re ready to dino limbo!
Line the kids up and start the music. One or two adults hold the tail at about neck level of the first kid in line. The kids have to lean back to go under. After each rotation of all the limboers, lower the tail. Do this until all but one have been eliminated. They win a special prize!
dinosaur party games and theme ideasDino Treasure Hunt |
Dinosaur Small Prizes |
Objective:
Follow the dinosaur footprints to uncover hidden treasures—or solve clues to unlock the ultimate prize for older adventurers!
Game play:
Kids will follow the dino tracks around the house or yard, discovering treasures along the way. For older kids, the tracks will lead to clues, which they must solve to find the final treasure.
Supplies:
- Large dinosaur footprint cutouts (construction paper or cardstock)
- Tape (for securing the footprints)
- Small treasures (e.g., toys, candy, stickers)
- Clue cards (optional for older kids)
- A big “final treasure” (e.g., a dinosaur toy or goody bag)
Set-up:
1. Footprints:
- Cut out large dinosaur-shaped footprints.
- Tape them down securely in a trail leading around your play area (indoors or outdoors).
- Space them out to create a clear path to each treasure or clue.
2. Treasures:
- Hide small treasures along the trail in spots kids can easily find, such as under a bush, behind furniture, or inside a box.
- For older kids, hide clues instead of treasures at intermediate stops. These clues should lead to the next set of footprints and eventually to the big treasure.
3.Final Treasure:
- At the end of the trail, place a special prize or collection of goodies for everyone to enjoy.
How to Play:
- Announce the start of the treasure hunt and explain that the footprints will guide them to hidden treasures or clues.
- Younger kids will collect treasures as they go. Older kids will solve clues at each stop to find the next part of the trail.
- Once all the treasures or the final prize is found, celebrate their dino-tracking success!
Tips:
- For younger kids, keep the footprints closer together and treasures easy to spot.
- For older kids, make the clues fun but challenging with riddles or simple puzzles (e.g., “Where does a dinosaur like to rest? Hint: It’s soft and cozy!” leading to a bed).
- Personalize the treasures with dino-themed items like small figurines, stickers, or glow-in-the-dark items.
- Add a storytelling element, like, “The dinos left their footprints while looking for their lost eggs. Can you help find them?”

This game is a guaranteed hit, with plenty of excitement, surprises, and happy smiles all around!
dinosaur party games and ideas
dinosaur balloon stomp
In this game you will create a tail for every child by tying a piece or string to a balloon and the other end of the string should be wrapped around the child's waist. The string should be long enough so that the balloon drags on the floor when the child is walking.
Now start the music and challenge the children to stomp the other kid's balloons while keeping their "tail" safe. The winner is the child with the last remaining unstomped "tail".
dinosaur party games and ideas
dino, dino, where's your egg
This game is played just like the classic game Doggy, Doggy, Where's your bone?. All the players sit in a group and one person is chosen to be the dinosaur. They must face away from the group and place the dinosaur egg behind them. One of the children will steal the egg and sit back down. They can hide the egg behind their back or between their legs. Once it is hidden all the children sing;
Dino, Dino, wake up and look around,
Someone stole your egg, can it be found?
Then the dinosaur must try and guess who stole their egg. If they guess right they get to be the dinosaur again. If they guess wrong the person who stole the egg gets to be the next dinosaur. Play and repeat.
