The Dinosaurs Themed Activities were a hit with everyone involved! The children loved learning about fossils and making their own salt dough dinosaur bones. They also really enjoyed making dinosaur silhouettes in Art, learning some fun facts about 6 dinosaurs, building dinosaurs with toothpicks and straws and taking part in some fun Math centers.
