- Start by downloading and printing the FREE (linked above) onto a single sheet of white cardstock. You Make My Heart “SAUR!” printable.
- Next, help your child tear or cut green construction paper into small pieces.
- Using school glue, let them fill the dinosaur design on the printable with the green paper pieces. Remind them that it doesn’t need to be perfect—this is all about having fun and creating something uniquely theirs.
- Once that’s done, it’s time to add the finishing touches! Have your child use their red fingerprints to create “spikes” along the dinosaur’s spine. Don’t forget to stick on a wiggle eye to bring their dinosaur to life!
- Allow the masterpiece to dry completely.
