Do you have kids who love dinosaurs? Inspire their creativity and love of all things dinosaur with these dinosaur crafts and activities! Great for parties and birthdays too.
My boys have always loved dinosaurs but, having said that, I’ve never met a child who doesn’t at least enjoy dinosaurs in some small way. We have books and books about dinosaurs, a bin full of toys, and my husband and kids will sit down and watch “Jurassic Park” together every now and then (I still get nightmares!). I enjoy doing activities at home, especially in the summer, that spark their creativity so I’m always on the look out for great ideas that will help me do that. I’ve found several that I wanted to share that involve our favorite prehistoric beasts.
Here are 75+ dinosaur crafts and activities for parties, birthday parties, classrooms, and home.
