If you’re a parent, then you know that a child’s 3rd birthday is one of the most important days in their life. When it comes to planning parties for your child, you want to make sure that the theme is something they favor. “Three-Rex” is an excellent theme choice for any dino-loving kids in your life!

Next, you need to decide how you are going to celebrate the occasion. Will it be a small gathering? A large one? For this theme, we chose a backyard setting and made it a family oriented gathering.

“Three-Rex” Themed Invitations

Invitations that flow with your theme can make all the difference. When planning a dinosaur themed birthday for your child, invitations can be realistic or animation oriented. For age appropriateness, we chose to keep the invitations on the animated side and show the “cute” versions of dinosaurs. 

We chose this invitation for an inviting and welcoming feel to the party: 

What to Wear

Your child’s 3rd birthday is a very memorable day for everyone involved. This means that you have to dress your little one in the best outfit possible. 

Whatever you choose, make sure that it is age appropriate and family oriented. We chose this t-shirt for the little one, which comes in many colors and fit the theme perfectly. 

“Three-Rex” Themed Food & Drink

There are many options when it comes to choosing foods and drinks to fit the theme of your party. My best advice is using a pun or play on words to really bring the theme to life. The food and drink for this theme are very flexible and interchangable. 

Here are some examples: 

• “Carnivore” tray: A tray fit for a carnivore that includes many types of meats.
• “Herbivore” tray: A tray fit for a herbivore that includes different fruits and vegetables.
• T-Rex Punch- A punch of your choice in a dispensing jug for all the thirsty dinos. 

“Three-Rex” Party Decor

We chose to incorporate this balloon garland to fit the theme. It is a great addition for photos and an easy way to incorporate a big piece of decor. We also chose to incorporate colors like green, orange, and some hints of blue and gold. Dinosaur figurines and other dinosaur decor were also great additions.
