dinosaur landscapes



We're still on the mend, but the boys are starting to grow bored and restless from being stuck inside sick for the past week. So today while making a grocery list for the papa, I found some leftover dinosaur stickers (from my friend Kacy's dino-rific themed b-day party) in the back of my notebook (no idea why I stashed them there) but it inspired me to create a landscape out of construction paper so the boys could create a dino-land. You could easily do this with any other type of sticker too. (Ocean backdrop with sea creature/ fish stickers, cityscape with superhero stickers, etc..) After they were done sticking, my oldest use red crayon to turn the mountains into volcanoes and also added a sun in the sky and some fish in the river. I also had some extra shapes left over from the shape collages to add trees and additional landscape. So easy and inexpensive.. Have fun creating! :)

  1. I love this idea - especially adding the landscapes to the construction paper... My little one has been sick too, and I'm getting bored of her DVDs now!
