Dinosaur party!

The little boy is crazy about dinosaurs; so a dinosaur-themed party seemed appropriate to celebrate his 6th birthday!




It was a lot of work planning for the party; but it was a lot of fun as well. Thank God for the internet- which makes we wonder how we got anything done in the past! It's amazing how creative some people are. I especially liked the cute names for the food- like Dino Eggs, Dino-mite Sticks and Dino Bones!

One cool idea I found on the internet was this- freezing little plastic dinosaurs in water-filled balloons, and getting the kids to 'excavate' the dinosaurs by melting or hacking away at the ice. We used little tools like plastic screws and hammers (from their toy toolbox) and used plastic scoops and syringes to take in water to melt the ice. Overall it was a messy affair, but it was pretty entertaining to watch. I think the parents might have had more fun that the kids! Haha!



Happy 6th birthday, my darling!
