Suggested Family Activity 🦖Dinosaur Arts & Crafts

Published by Library Staff on

Do your kids love dinosaurs and doing arts and crafts projects?  If you have some paper plates, you can let them make their own dinosaur today.  Grab a plain white paper plate and cut it in half to be the body of the dino.  Color the body whatever color you want, using crayons, markers, or paint.  (You can also use left-over colored plates from birthday parties to make a body).  Next, draw and cut out pieces to glue to the paper plate to finish your dino friend.  Draw a long neck and head to make an apatosaurus or one with three horns to make a triceratops.  Or add spines down the dinosaur’s back to turn it into a stegosaurus or an ankylosaur.  Don’t forget to add a tail (short and stumpy or long and curved) and legs to finish out your dinosaur.
