What kinds of things is he into? Are you doing a themed party?

I'm thinking about doing a Dino themed party for Zach's fifth birthday this year. A few things that I was thinking of doing were...
making fossils - using clay or model magic have kids flatten out balls of modeling material and press different things into them. Let them air dry and the kids can take them home.
dinosaur egg hunt - buy a cheap bag of little plastic dinos (.88 at Walmart) and put them inside of Easter egss and hide around the house. Another thing kids can take home.
Coloring Sheets - There are tons of places you can print coloring sheets offline and I thought it would be a good time filler.

If you have a yard, you could do a bug party. Like get fake worms and bugs and have them hunt for them. They can make their own bug jars (get a collection going) to bring their finds home. In their prize packs, you can get mini magnifying glasses and nets. Do bugged them foods and cake. I know Brandon would love that!
