Dinosaur Dig : Make your own dino eggs by mixing two cups of used coffee grounds, one cup of flour and one cup of water. Mix well and roll a handful into a egg shape. Push a small Dinosaur figurine (I used the cheap Kmart version), then re-roll into the egg shape ball. Bake on 180 degress for 30 mins. Leave to cool. On the party day, hide the eggs in a sandpit for some dino dig fun! An alternative version is to purcahse dinosaur bones (Australian Geographic store) and bury them in the sandpit for a dinosaur excavation.
Dinosaur Relays: Simple egg and spoon relay using dinosaur eggs (Easter eggs work well or water balloons)
Pin the Tooth on the T-Rex - an oldie but a goodie
Tyrannosaurus Tail Tag : Tyrannosaurus in the middle, and the children are lined up on the opposite side of the room as "Triceratops". They have to try to get from one side to the other without being caught by the T-Rex.
Paleontologist Training: Training session on using your skill to dig out dino bones. Each child is given a choc chip cookie, a toothpick and a paper plate. The object of this activity is to pick out the choc chip using only a toothpick as a paleontologist would without breaking the chips.
Dinosaur Treasure Hunt: Children are sent on a treasure hunt journey solving the dinosaur clues (answering questions on each dinosaur) to discover their very own Dinosaur prize.
Dinosaur Says: This is a simple game whereby you play Simon Says. Dinosaur Says, Fly like a Azhdarchid, Stomp like a Gorgosaurus, Glide like a Alexornis, Run fast like a Velociraptor, STretch like a Brachiosaurus and Roar like a T-Rex
Pass the Dinosaur : Simple game of Pass the Parcel but pass a dinosaur object. Have the children act out a dinosaur challenge for added fun.
