Turning Dinosaurs and Stars into Stellar Party Decor
Okay, you’ve set the celestial tone with your invitations. Now, let’s dive into how you can transform your space (whether it’s your backyard, living room, or a rented venue) into a dino-meets-space wonderland. And guess what? You don’t need a massive budget to pull it off. With a little creativity and some DIY magic, your party will look absolutely stellar!
A. Starry Backdrop
Start by imagining a world where dinosaurs roam under a starry sky. Imagine soft fairy lights twinkling like stars, dinosaur cutouts peeking through greenery, and balloons shaped like planets and rockets floating around the room. It’s a scene that will have your guests feeling like they’ve traveled through time and space.
Create a magical atmosphere with a backdrop of hanging paper stars and DIY paper mache planets. Sprinkle glow-in-the-dark stickers across the ceiling, so when the lights go down, your space theme truly comes to life. It’s a fun, affordable way to make your party feel like an out-of-this-world adventure!
B. Balloon Arch
One easy, budget-friendly decor idea is creating a celestial balloon arch! Use blue and silver balloons to represent the sky, stars, and moon, and for an extra playful touch, toss in a few inflatable dinosaurs for that prehistoric twist. It’s a fun and eye-catching way to blend celestial vibes with dino-magic, perfect for any celebration!

Now, to give it that prehistoric flair, create mini dinosaur “habitats” using faux grass runners on the tables, and mix in some cute dino toys. Your space-themed jungle is complete! Just like that, with a few DIY touches and a splash of creativity, you’ve transformed your venue into a prehistoric space adventure that’s both fun and budget-friendly.
And speaking of venues, let’s talk about where you can host this amazing baby shower.
Cake, Cupcakes, and Comets
“Space-Themed Sweets with a Roar”
Now, let’s talk cake—because no baby shower is complete without a show-stopping sweet treat! With a theme as fun as Moon, Dinosaur & Star Space, the cake possibilities are endless. You can go wild with dino-themed cakes, galaxy-inspired treats, or even a combination of both!
A Show-stopper Birthday Cake
A fun idea is to design a cake with a cute dinosaur sitting on top of a planet, holding a tiny flag that says, “Baby on the Way!” You can use colorful fondant to create moons, stars, and planets surrounding the dinosaur, giving your cake a playful yet cosmic touch.
If you’re going for simple elegance with a touch of cosmic charm, a galaxy cake is the way to go! Hand drawn Marbled blue and purple icing that mimics the swirling beauty of the universe, sprinkled with just the right amount of edible glitter to make it sparkle.
Your guests will be in total awe! For the perfect finishing touch, top it off with a cute mini rocket ship or a playful dinosaur figure to keep the theme alive and fun. It’s both stunning and delicious—an out-of-this-world dessert that’s sure to be a showstopper!
Need more ideas?
If you’re not up for a full-blown cake, don’t worry! Cupcakes are a perfect alternative. Decorate each cupcake with little stars, dino toppers, or edible rockets. You can also make space-themed cookies or cake pops shaped like mini planets, comets, or dinosaur eggs. The best part? All of these treats are easy to make at home, and they’ll look just as good as anything you’d find in a bakery. And just like that, your dessert table is the talk of the party! But let’s not forget about the attire because we’re all about dressing to impress, dino-style.
Space Gear and Dinosaur Chic: How to Dress for a Starry Safari
Your baby shower theme is out of this world, so why not have the outfits match? Whether it’s a casual dress code or something a bit more festive, you can have a lot of fun dressing for the occasion. For the mom-to-be, the options are endless. How about a flowy, ethereal dress in galaxy-inspired blues and purples, or a playful dino-printed dress?
Add a cute flower crown or headband with tiny stars, and she’ll feel like the queen of both the prehistoric world and the cosmos.
For guests, you could suggest space-themed or dinosaur-inspired attire. Think starry prints, cute astronaut accessories, or even dinosaur onesies for the little ones. The fun part is that everyone can interpret the theme in their own way, whether they want to embrace the dino vibes or lean into the cosmic chic look. And hey, if someone shows up dressed as an astronaut riding a dinosaur, you know they’ve nailed it!
With everyone looking stellar, let’s move on to the activities because we’ve got some intergalactic games to play!
Creative Coloring Pages for a Starry Dino Adventure
What’s a baby shower without some fun activities to keep your guests entertained? And trust me, with a Moon, Dinosaur & Star Space-themed Baby Shower, you don’t need to overthink it! One of the simplest, yet most engaging activities that works for all ages is setting up a Coloring Page Station—it’s laid-back, creative, and perfectly on-theme.
You’ve got a little corner of your baby shower set up with colorful markers, crayons, and an array of dinosaur, space, and moon-themed coloring pages that guests can grab at their leisure. It’s the perfect low-key activity that allows everyone to relax, chat, and let their imaginations run wild as they bring these adorable cosmic creatures to life.

What’s fun about a Coloring Page Station is that it’s suitable for kids and adults. While the little ones will dive right into coloring their favorite dinosaurs and rockets, you’d be surprised at how many adults will find themselves getting involved too. Plus, it’s a great way to encourage mingling. You can even spice things up by turning it into a mini contest—have guests vote for their favorite colored masterpiece, and hand out a cute space-themed prize to the winner.
