Dinosaur Egg Hatching Craft
I couldn’t find the original source for this activity, it's just picture I saw online, but of all the "egg hatching" craft projects I’ve seen, this was definitely my favorite. I especially love how strips of construction paper are used to make a sort of grassy-nest for the egg.
For dinosaur pictures, you might consider using these:
Free Dinosaur Coloring Activity Pages. Cute dinosaur themed coloring pages with writing space at the bottom to practice spelling out the name of each featured dinosaur.
Dinosaur Clothespin Puppets. Unfortunately, this particular activity is not free, but it was too cute to pass up. Cut and paste the images on clothespins and enjoy making these puppets “roar” as they open and close their mouths with just a squeeze of the clothespin.

Help the Dinosaurs Get on the Ark Printable Board Game. This is a simple game of rolling a dice and moving your game pieces until you get your dinosaurs all the way to the ark. You can use just about any small objects as the playing game pieces, but if you have small dinosaur game pieces that would certainly be the most fun!
Dinosaur Lost World Mini Garden. I really love this idea from 'The Garden Book' by Jane Bull. It’s kind of like a fairy garden but it features dinosaurs! Mixing fun with learning, kids will grow different plants in their mini garden and add that touch of fun by using their toys to create a dinosaur habitat and lost world scene.
Dinosaur Park Mini Garden. After seeing the “Lost World” gardening idea (above) I ran a search on Pinterest for dinosaur gardens and terrariums and there are a bunch of really great ideas! This is the kind of project where the sky is the limit! Combine the dinosaur toys with things found in nature and let your kids’ imaginations run wild!

Hello, World! Dinosaurs. This is cute little book for young kids that serves as a good introduction to dinosaurs. The pictures are fun and colorful and the text is pretty basic (though it DOES through in some big words here and there). I especially like that this book sticks with clear facts and isn't mixing in any evolution in the sharing of the information. It’s so rare to find a dinosaur book that isn’t steeped heavily in evolution.
Dinosaur Zoom! This book is completely fiction and really just for fun and entertainment, but it was my son’s favorite dinosaur book and just had to be included in our dinosaur theme study. Dinosaurs in all sorts of different vehicles are on their way to a surprise birthday party for the littlest dinosaur. When it comes to little boys you can’t go wrong when you’ve got a book the features dinosaurs and vehicles! It’s definitely a favorite!
