Enchanted Learning Software's Papier Mache Dinosaur Bone Craft More Kinder Crafts You can make your very own dinosaur bone from a big cardboard tube, newspaper and flour. This is a messy craft - wear old clothes and work outside if possible. |
Supplies needed:
|
Crumble up some newspaper into balls and tape to the ends of a big cardboard tube.
|
Make a simple, thin glue from flour and water (boiling gives it a nice consistency). Mix 1 cup of flour into 1 cup of water until the mixture is thin and runny. Stir into 4 cups of boiling water. Simmer for about 3 minutes, then cool. (You can make this glue without cooking it, but it isn't as smooth that way.) Have an adult do the cooking. |
Have children tear a lot of strips of newspaper and/or brown bag paper. Strips should be about 1 inch wide; the length doesn't really matter. |
Dip a newspaper strip into the cooled glue, then wrap it around the dinosaur bone. Cover the entire bone, then let it dry (it make take a day or more to dry). |
When dry, paint the bone. You now have a great dinosaur fossil! |
