Dinosaur Eggs

Today we started Dino days in K4!  We always start the unit by making our eggs. I use 2 parts water to 1 part flour. Mix in a big bowl. Put a small toy dinosaur into a balloon and blow up. Don't make the balloon too big. Use strips of newspaper over the balloon until the whole thing is covered. Once it is covered with newspaper I then cover with strips of white copy paper because when it's dry then we paint bright colors. 

Make sure the eggs are completely dry before painting!

Place in a basket with raffia or dry grass. Stay tuned for the hatching in 3 weeks!

Dino to volcano

We are in our third week of Dino days. Friday is our big Grandparents Day Event. This week we made volcanos out of our old Play do, the students added the secret powder(baking Soda), a little squirt of dish soap, they chose what color lava they wanted and then they added the lava juice(vinegar). The kids loved it. We also made paper plate Dino's. I made a really cute bulletin board with it for our big event. I am also including our menu! Hope you all like it! We had a dinomite time!!

Dino days

Another great week of dinosaurs with our little ones! We did a Dino glyph, sponge painted dinosaurs and made our dinosaur eggs! The kids are so excited to watch their Dino eggs.

Dinosaur craft

This is a great craft for dinomite dads or family event with kids. It is a stegosaurus and you have each one in the family paint their hands for the point.
