the outlines of the dinosaurs.

paint. Help the children make prints of different dinosaurs and label them
with their species name.
4. Give each child a cup and enough clay to fill half of the cup. Ask the children
to push the clay down into the bottom of the cup. Talk to the children about
fossils. Encourage the children to make their own fossils by putting their fist
into the cup and making an imprint.
