Dinosaur Bone Hunt

This will be a two day project.

Day 1.) Making dinosaur bones with home maid play dough.

Ingredients.....

1 cup flour
1/2 cup salt
1 cup water
1 T. oil
1 T. cream of tarter

Combine all ingredients in a cooking pan on medium heat. Cook until the dough pulls away from the pan while stirring continuously. When the play dough is cool, you may begin to create dinosaur bones. Once all the bones are made, let them dry overnight on wax paper or a paper plate. If it is a sunny day, let the bones dry outside. Remember to flip them over to dry the other side.

Day 2.) Pretend to be archaeologists. Have someone hide the dinosaur bones in the sandbox and have fun digging them up.

The older children can get creative and make dinosaur bones that look like a dinosaur when put together on the ground. Start with a skull and let your child's imagination do the rest of the work.
