Every kindergarten has one child who can pronounce every dinosaur and corrects the adults. This card is for that child. A green stegosaurus and a mustard triceratops stand under a paper sunset, jungle leaves creep in from the sides, and the words sit on a cream label cut like a museum card.
It is built for a fifth birthday, but dinosaurs run strong from three to eight, and the design is fine for a boy or a girl.
Bury plastic bones in a sandbox and hand out paintbrushes for a dig. Make footprint stamps from sponges, serve dino nuggets and a volcano cake with red frosting lava, and send everyone home with a hatching-egg toy. A roar contest settles any argument about who gets the first slice, and a fossil-rubbing table keeps the quiet ones happy.
