What you'll need:
- Dino Dome dinosaurs templates (printed out)
- Cardboard or coloured paper (for backing)
- Scissors
- Glue or tape
- Any decorative materials from around the house for example:
- paint, markers, glitter or stickers
- String, ribbon or twine (to hang the decorations)
- Hole punch (optional)
- A grown-up to help!
Step by step guide:
Step 1: Print out the templates
- Print out the dinosaur templates of your choice from the pages above
Step 2: Cut them out
- Carefully cut around the edges of each dinosaur template using scissors.
- Be sure to leave some space around the edges for decorating.
Step 3: Add a cardboard layer
- Cut a piece of cardboard a little bigger than your dinosaur template.
- Glue or tape the cardboard to the back of each dinosaur to give it extra sturdiness and make it stand out when hung up.
Step 4: Get creative
- Using any materials you have around the house to decorate your dinosaurs however you like (we used extra bits of cardboard, markers and stickers)
- You might like to add festive touches like hats, scarves, or little lights to give them a festive vibe.
Step 5: Thread it through
- Using a hole punch, make a hole at the top of each dino. Take a length of string and thread it through and tie it off.
- This will allow you to hang your dinosaur decorations on your tree or plant.
Step 6: Time to hang!
- Once everything is decorated and string is attached, hang your dinos on a tree, plant, or any spot you have!
