If you ever wondered if preschool boys had any interest in dinosaurs, let me emphatically assure they do! For the last 2 weeks we have been learning about dinosaurs in our homeschool preschool. We talked about meat eaters and plant eaters, we sorted by size, we matched pictures to shadows, we made play doh fossils, and we roared…A LOT! We played dino games, made dino puppets and even learned to how to draw dinosaurs!
He drew pictures for dad and all the grandparents and then we mailed out his one of a kind artwork.
We also learned that they came from eggs. And what better way to learn this, than by making dinosaur eggs! I found a recipe online for making a dough out of old coffee grounds and flour
then you mix it into a dough and hide the dinosaur inside
Once that’s finished, just dry out in an oven, low and slow.
The next day, Rex had babies! (No, we haven’t had any sex ed classes yet.
Ever since I got pregnant with Berlin, every now and then he talks about babies being in his tummy. Then he “opens the door” to let them out so they can play. The door has a latch sound.) But I digress…
Kyle came home from work one night to help the eggs “hatch”. Kade loved every minute of it.
The proud “mama” and her babies.
There are some days that I think this is what I look like as a mom…and I only have two!
The highlight of the week was pretending to be a paleontologist. I found this cute kit on Amazon and then Kade and his dad donned their safety glasses and went to work.
To put it mildly, it was a messy project…
but that couldn’t dampen the joy of discovery!
Look out plant eaters, here we come! ROAR!!
