We had an incredible Dinosaurs Rock birthday party for my sonโ€™s 4th birthday! Brad was great with the kids, super engaging and the kids had a wonderful time. It was a unique experience and something fun and different than other parties weโ€™ve hosted and been to. Would highly recommend for any Dino lover!

5 Reasons DINOSAURS ROCK Is the Ultimate Birthday Party ๐Ÿฆ–๐Ÿ’Ž

  • We Bring the Museum to You โ€” No travel, no hassle. Giant life-size dinosaur skulls, authentic fossils, and dazzling mineral specimens transform your space into an instant “wow.”
  • Hands-On Fossil Digs & Gem Mining โ€” Every guest gets to dig, discover, and get their hands dirty (the fun kind) while staying fully engaged from start to finish.
  • Real Take-Home Treasures โ€” Skip the plastic goody bags. Kids go home with real fossils and gems they personally unearthed โ€” keepsakes they’ll treasure for years.
  • Expert Edutainment โ€” Our high-energy hosts blend museum-quality education with theme-park excitement for a show that’s as fascinating as it is fun.
  • Totally Stress-Free for Parents โ€” We handle setup, entertainment, and cleanup, so you can actually enjoy the party. Works for any age or group size.

I just want to say what an amazing time everyone had. Brad was so knowledgeableย and great with the kids. I could not have imagined a better dinosaur party. Felix was absolutely thrilled. At one point I asked him if he was feeling nervous about his party and he immediately said “not withย the dino guy!”
Thanks for making my kid’s birthday dreams come true!

Dinosaur Birthday Party FAQ

How much does a dinosaur birthday party cost?

Our birthday packages start at $595 and include a live museum-style show with real fossils and specimens plus a hands-on activity for every guest. See the package table above for full pricing. Optional add-ons include Excavation Blocks ($12.50 per guest), crystal-filled Geodes ($10 each), Stuff-A-Dino ($25 for 8-inch, $35 for 16-inch) and Shark Tooth Necklaces ($7.50 per guest).

What ages are Dinosaurs Rock birthday parties best for?

Our parties work for any age, but they are most popular for kids ages 3 to 10. Our hosts adjust the show so younger children stay engaged and older kids get real science to dig into.

How long does the party last?

Most packages run 60 to 9 minutes, including the museum show and the hands-on fossil dig or gem mining activity. Longer party packages are available.

How much space do you need, and can the party be outdoors?

We can set up in a living room, basement, backyard, clubhouse or party room. We need about 2-3 6ft tables for our exhibit plus room for the kids to sit. Outdoor parties are welcome; we just need a flat, shaded area and a backup indoor space in case of rain.

How many kids can attend?

Our parties work for any group size. Packages include up to (12-20) children, and additional guests can be added for (see party pkg above) each.

Do the kids really get to keep the fossils and gems?

Yes! Every child takes home real fossils and gems they personally dug up. They’re not plastic goody-bag toys, they’re genuine specimens kids keep for years.

Where do you travel? Are there travel fees?

We bring the museum to homes and venues throughout New Jersey, New York and Connecticut. A $125 fee applies to parties in New York City, and travel, toll and parking fees may apply to some locations. See our “Locations We Serve” page for details.

Do you offer virtual birthday parties?

Yes. If you’re outside our service area, we offer live virtual dinosaur, gem and ocean parties, and we can ship dig kits and supplies to your home before the party.

How do I book, and is a deposit required?

Call or text (917) 375-4248 or email dinosaursrock2@gmail.com to check your date. A deposit reserves your party. We accept credit cards and PayPal (a convenience fee applies). Weekend dates book up fast, so we recommend reserving [4 to 6 weeks] ahead.
