They were a lot of fun to make and a fun decoration for our dinosaur study for kids.
First we picked a dinosaur we wanted to hatch and put it inside a balloon.
(Just go slowly and stretch the neck open before sliding it in).
And one day…. Goofy helped them hatch by cracking them open and found baby dinosaurs inside!
My first grader had so much fun practicing these key Dolch Sight Words in a dino fun way!

For our project we needed 1 1/2 cup plaster and 1/2 cup water.
Stir and pour into dino mold and cover all of playdough until the top of your mold.
Tap slightly to remove air bubbles.
Wait about 45 minutes (the instructions say 30, but wait longer!).
Flip over mold and carefully remove mold.
Next you are going to remove the playdough.
Use the block of playdouh to help get the extra remaining playdough.
You will have a very cook raised impression of a dinosaur!
Goofy was so proud of his dinosaur!

We also had the dinosaur step in green paint to make his tracks.
