Dinosaur party supplies for children who can't get enough of T-Rexes, Triceratops and all things prehistoric. Here you'll find everything for a dinosaur-themed birthday — plates, cups, napkins, balloons, bunting, streamers and party bag fillers that will have little guests roaring from the moment they arrive.
Dinosaur party decorations
Transform any room into a Jurassic scene without spending a lot. Start with a twisted wall backdrop using green and orange crepe paper streamers — it takes about 10 minutes, looks professional and gives you an instant photobooth backdrop for the birthday photos. Add a balloon cluster above the party table and dinosaur bunting across the mantelpiece or window for a complete look. The bold greens and oranges of a dinosaur party theme are some of the easiest party colours to work with — everything coordinates naturally.
Dinosaur party tableware
Keep the table easy with coordinated dinosaur plates, cups and napkins. Paper tableware means no washing up and everything can be recycled after the party. Lay the table with dinosaur napkins folded flat under each plate for a simple but pulled-together look. If you're doing a party tea, add a plain green tablecloth and let the tableware carry the theme.
Dinosaur party bag fillers
A good dinosaur party bag doesn't need to be stuffed with cheap plastic. Our Dinosaur Building Brick Kit is one of the most popular — a small but satisfying construction set with genuine play value that survives past the journey home. Dinosaur temporary tattoo sheets on FSC card are another consistent favourite: fast to hand out, genuinely exciting for children aged 3–8, and plastic-free. Both sit comfortably within typical party bag budgets of £1.50–£2 per child.
