Materials
Enlarged dinosaur shape cut from oak tag or cardboard
Colored sidewalk chalkInstructions
1. Take the children outside to a patio or sidewalk and invite them to trace around enlarged patterns
of dinosaurs using colored chalk.
2. If children know the names of the dinosaurs, help them write these next to the outlines.
3. Encourage the children to draw in details or simply color the inside of the outline of the chalk.
More to do
More art: Tell the children to draw their own dinosaurs on the sidewalk without the use of a pattern.
Encourage creativity!
Science: Display books about dinosaurs along with puzzles and models for the children to
explore.
