Summer Boredom Buster {Paper Mache Dinosaur Bone}


This was a messy craft, but one that the kids really enjoyed.  Using some glue and newspaper and a little paint you can create an ancient dinosaur bone.  Click here for details.

Paper Mache Dinosaur Bone

 Dinosaur Bone Supply List: 1 toilet paper roll, newspaper, tape, flour, mixing bowl, paint
 Ball up newspaper and tape it to the end of your toilet paper roll.
 Tear the remaining newspaper into small strips and mix your paper mache.  To make the paper mache I mixed equal parts water with flour, about a cup of each.  Then I added in a couple of squirts of glue.
 Dip the newspaper in your paper mache mixture and cover the toilet paper roll.
 Allow the dinosaur bone to dry, we left ours overnight.  Paint the bone white.

Book Suggestion: How Do Dinosaurs Say Goodnight? by Jane Yolen is an amusing and fun book that follows some dinosaur friends through their bedtime shenanigans.  We love all of the books in the dinosaur series.
