Baby Dinosaur Cookies (2024)

Today was a big day in our house. My baby boy turned six! Isn’t he precious? I may be a little biased…

Most of the time the cookies around my house are off limits, but on birthdays my kiddos run the show. My little paleontologist picked dinosaur cookies, of course!

Problem is, I’m not really fond of my “real” dinosaur cutters. They are complicated and a little hard to figure out. So, I came up with alternative designs using these cutters. Would you have guessed Caleb’s dinosaur cookies came from these cutters?

Can you match the cookie to the cutter?

I made it easy on ya.

1. a {spider web}
2. b {Karen’s baby cutter}
3. c {egg}
4. g {ice cream cone}
5. d {stocking}
6. e {heart}
7. f {small egg}

Ever wonder how a dinosaur eats a cookie? Caleb was glad to demonstrate!

I guess momma did good!

If you don’t love a cutter, don’t be afraid to rethink it. you may surprise yourself

Since were having a party, two of my closest friends Glory, of Glorious Treats, and Lisa, The Bearfoot Baker made special dino-themed treats for Caleb too.

Be sure to check out Glory’s Dirt, Worms, and Dinosaur Desserts and Lisa’s Dinosaur Cookies for Caleb. It means the world to have friends that love my kiddo as much as I do!

I’m also loving Sue’s Baby Dinosaur cookies. You should check them out!

I hope everyone had a wonderful weekend!

   Happy Birthday Caleb! Love the dino cookies. I’ve been spending hours trying to rethink cutters. It’s not coming so easy, but I’m not giving up. All I have is baby on the mind lately and I seem to only be able to think of baby things.

   Great job on using the different cutters. You always amaze me with your ideas.

   Your son is too cute!

   My fav cookie has got to be the one breaking out of the egg. With all the cute dinosaur treats I’ve been seeing, Im really wishing I would have grabbed up those dinosaur sprinkles that I saw at Home Hoods. 🙂

    Ingenious use of the cutters! I love how creative you are! Started to use my “cookie think” more, kinda like a sixth sense but I’m getting it! I love how happy your boy is too, isn’t it the best to see your own kids enjoy your cookies 🙂

    Caleb is so cute! I’m sure you don’t want to think about the day that he’s ready to date but that smile and those eyes are gonna have girls chasing him.

    I can’t believe that not a single one of these cookies was made with a dinosaur cutter. Well I can believe it because you made them. How do you do it? I guess that’s why you are a queen 😉
