When my son turned four years old, he wanted to have a dinosaur birthday party. As with all the birthday parties I plan, the first step was nailing down an invitation design. The dinosaur birthday invitations online were a mixed bag. Some were great, but not quite what I was looking for. Other dinosaur party invitations were downright ugly.
So I made my own dino party invitation! This was also the only party where I didn’t have any printed, and just used the design on Facebook. NEVER again. I love having the printed ones!
But I know not everyone is able to make dinosaur birthday party invitations for themselves. After seeing the lack of variety, I made a whole collection of dinosaur invitations. And I’m even giving a dino invitation template away for FREE!
Most people dino birthday invitations are for boys, but girls like dinosaurs too. So I’ve made some cute girly dinosaur invitations, too. Because sometimes girls still prefer feminine colors with their dinosaurs!

Dinosaur First Birthday Invitations
Since our babies can’t quite tell us what they’d like the best, we have to decide things for them. Dinosaurs are a popular 1st birthday theme because a baby dinosaur party is so stinkin’ cute!
Baby Dinosaur Invitations
This dinosaur birthday invitation for babies turning one features a toddler wearing a dinosaur costume – how cute! The wording includes “Let’s chomp, stomp, and have some fun!” to rhyme with the word “one.”
Printable Download
For each of my designs, I’m offering a cheap dinosaur template invitation you can download immediately instead of waiting for it to be personalized (because you might need to hand them out, like, TODAY).
You could fill in the details the old-fashioned way with a pen (on the dark ones, I recommend silver sharpie pens or white gel pens). Or you can use a photo editing app on your phone or tablet to type in the details!
Then, you can either have them printed to hand out and/or mail, or just send them virtually via text, email, or Facebook.
Just click the blank template pictured below to get your dinosaur 1st birthday invitation!

Hatching Dinosaur Egg Invitations
I didn’t have to make a dinosaur-themed birthday invite for this idea, because there were already lots of cute ones to choose from!

These printable dinosaur birthday invitations from Ella’s Cards and Party feature a blue baby dinosaur hatching out of an orange egg. You get immediate access to an online template via Corjl to fill in your party details. Technically it’s a baby shower invitation, but you can easily change the wording to reflect having a birthday party. You’ll have a completed design in no time!

This Etsy Seller provides a service like mine – they customize the text for you, so you don’t have to navigate any photo editing software. I know from experience that DIY templates often lead to struggling to fit long names or addresses in the available space without wrecking the design. So let The Invite Lady do that for you! Just let her know it’s for a birthday party instead of a baby shower.
She even goes a step further and prints them on your behalf, so you don’t have to worry about that extra step.

Toddler Dinosaur Invitations
Dinosaur birthday party invitations are often needed for the two- to the four-year-old crowd. Why are dinosaurs so fascinating to that age group? Probably because they are so tiny, and dinosaurs are so BIG!
2nd Birthday Dinosaur Invitations
“Two Wild” pretty much nails the description of most toddlers. I’ve seen the phrase used on jungle, safari, and zoo-themed birthday parties, but I think it works perfectly with dinosaurs as well! And it sounds a little nicer than “terrible twos.”

This dinosaur birthday invitation template will look great when filled out with a gold Sharpie pen! Since this is a digital image your printed invitations won’t *actually* shimmer or glitter gold, but if you’re filling in the details on your phone and sending them digitally, the illusion is awesome.

3-Rex (T-Rex) Dinosaur Invitations
How do you invite a dinosaur to lunch?
You ask, “Tea, Rex?” Haha!
All jokes aside, when planning my dinosaur 3rd birthday invitation wording, I tried to make triceratops work. But all “tri” jokes seemed a bit too out there for toddlers to really appreciate. Three-Rex works much better!

The reason I’ve made all my dinosaur birthday party invitations printable is that ordering custom-printed invitations can get super expensive. (Yes, you can still use my PNG files to order prints, but I wanted everyone to have the option to do them from home!)
This design features a very light background, so you can use any color pen to fill it out if doing so by hand.

Roar, Look Who’s Four! Invitations
I started this whole project by making my own dinosaur 4th birthday invitations. And for a fourth birthday, it would be a travesty if the dinosaur invitation wording didn’t rhyme “four” with “roar!”

Dino-Four Invitations
A whole year after his fourth birthday party, my son still absolutely loves dinosaurs, so I’m glad we went with this theme! I even made some digital art of him from his party using the “Dino-Four” phrase!
Featuring a birthday dinosaur complete with a noisemaker and a party hat, this invitation is one of my favorites from this collection. It also features my son’s favorite colors!

Since this blank invitation has a dark background, you may want to add your party details with a photo editing app so you can use light colors for the text. I also highly recommend silver Sharpie pens. I’ve found a zillion uses for them, and they write really well on dark cardstock.

This dinosaur-hatching invitation isn’t what I would consider for a one-year-old… But if your four-year-old is like mine was, he’d go crazy for this more realistic, less cutesy illustration.

Children’s Dinosaur Birthday Invitations
If you’re not looking for an age-specific dinosaur invitation, I’ve got even more to choose from! These invitations will work for any age – even the dinosaur-loving adult who is still a kid at heart.
Triceratops Dinosaur Invitations
Personally, my favorite dinosaur is and has ALWAYS been the triceratops. This dates back to Cera, the orange triceratops in the Land Before Time movies. I identify with her bossiness and stubbornness. 🙂

The blank version of this invitation leaves room for you to write in the age your child is turning between their name and the word “birthday.” The brown background is dark enough that you’ll probably want a silver or gold Sharpie if filling it out by hand.
Personalized Digital Template

If you’re printing and filling it in by hand, you can finally make use of the zillion 3×5 and wallet-sized prints that came with their school pictures!

With that in mind, I am happy to recommend the editable dinosaur invitations below that I scouted out on Etsy! All of the sellers have excellent reviews and provide their templates on easy-to-use software like Corjl, Templett, or Canva. Just click on the one you like to go to its listing.

To get a quote on a custom design, simply click here to email me with what you have in mind.

If you’re just scouring the web trying to get inspiration for the right wording for a dinosaur birthday invitation, I hope you’ve found some great ideas here! Just to recap, here are some great phrases and puns you can use:

- Stomp on over to celebrate!
Here are even more that I didn’t use in my designs!

- Are you ready for a rawr-some party?
