I can not believe it but it is almost time for the boys to go back to school. I decided to throw a dinosaur party before the Summer was over. It turned out really cute, with awesome food using the Kraft Dips. The children had so much fun and loved it!

Dinosaur Party Decorations

The backdrop is actually two curtains. I thought the colors went well with the theme. For the banner I cut it out of green card stock, then cut the dinosaurs and letters out of orange card stock. I doubled up the tape to make it more 3-d looking.

The files for the banner can be downloaded together in a ZIP file. You have the option to use the silhouette design if you own a silhouette or use the jpg, print and cut yourself. DOWNLOAD

Dinosaur Party Favors

I made dinosaur crayons to give out to all of the kids. I put the crayons in little boxes with some green grass. They work really well with the back to school theme, but would be great as favors for a dinosaur birthday party. Check out my post for a tutorial on how to make DIY Shaped Crayons. My other party favor was “dino repellent”, since every kid loves bubbles!

I was so happy to find the Kraft Dips ready to go at Walmart. They made preparing for this dinosaur party so much easier.

Along with their new packaging they also came out with new Green Onion Dip and Bacon and Cheddar Dip. I can not wait to try these!

I made herbivore cups by putting the dip in the bottom of the cup then adding carrots and celery. The new Kraft Green Onion Dip would be perfect for these.

I also made carnivore sandwiches. I made the sandwich with ham, cheese, and lettuce. Then used the dinosaur cookie cutter to cut the sandwiches.

My favorite food was the pasta raptor salad. It was made with the french onion dip, squash, zucchini and tomatoes. The Kraft Bacon and Cheddar Dip would make a really good pasta salad too. Just add cooked bacon crumble and cheddar cheese right before serving.

21|365 Trying on glasses. She loved these ones. He 21|365 Trying on glasses. She loved these ones. Hers should arrive in a week or two. 

We saw a third eye doctor. We are going to try glasses for two months and also try to prevent her from closing or covering her left eye. Along with having her focus on something brought to her nose throughout the day. Then recheck. She did mention alternate patching. Even though they see it in both eyes it is more prominent in her left eye. If neither one is helping then we will do surgery.

20|365 Annelyn did amazing at the allergist today. 20|365 Annelyn did amazing at the allergist today. I felt so bad when they were poking her back. I shared a photo in my stories of her back. They tested for dairy, eggs, green beans and pork. She previously had a reaction to green beans and bacon so they wanted to check that. The dairy and egg still had a reaction, but the doctor feels it is small enough that we can start trying eggs and dairy in small portions. Her egg reaction is a little less than dairy so we are going to try that first. 

I let her pick out a toy and she picked this baby yoda.

14|365 Sweet girl. Little update we are going for 14|365 Sweet girl. Little update we are going for a 3rd opinion next week at an office that offers vision therapy. I am going to see if they think therapy and/or glasses would help. I’m hoping that it will be an option since she is able to control it when we get her to focus. We will see. 

Thanks for all the advice and sharing your experiences. I know every child and diagnosis is different but it is nice to hear what others have done.
