Make Your Own Dinosaur Kits from DK Canada

 


March Break has officially descended upon Ontario and mom’s and child care providers are scrambling for craft and activity ideas to keep their kids entertained throughout the week! Playing video games all week just isn’t going to cut it and “mom, I’m bored” completely makes me cringe! We need to keep their minds and bodies busy, which is why I love the selection of craft, cooking and science books in the DK March Break Boutique! 

DK Smithsonian – Make your own Stegosaurus and T-Rex kits

 

Go big or go home! The Make Your Own Stegosaurus book and model set comes with 98 pieces to create a complete 72 cm Stego model! The pieces are extremely sturdy, well labeled with numbers and come attached to cardboard sheets. Each piece pops easily out of the sheet, my boys loved doing this part, and should be arranged in order from 1 – 98 to begin. I liked that nothing went to waste with this kit, once the pieces are punched out the sheets stack together to form the base of the model!

The instructions are clear and easy to follow with step by step photos to guide you along the way. My 7 year old sailed through this project and helped his little brothers along the way. I was really impressed with the amount of learning that went on with this project, my little boys did a great job with the counting and number recognition when getting started and my oldest put his reading skills to the test and paid attention to every last details of bone building!

The book itself if filled with interesting facts and stories about the dinosaurs! Did you know that “Stegosaurus” means “Roof Lizard”? When fossils of the dino were first discovered, people thought that the back plates looked like tiles from a roof!

You can see how proud the boys! They completed a great project with team work and patience, I was pretty proud of them too! Overall, I was one very impressed mama! I’ve seen sets before that are flimsy and frustrating and this was nothing of the sort! The whole set is well though out and even has a large box in the back to hold all the pieces. It can easily be disassembled and stored away to do again another day.

Check out the DK March Break Boutique sale where you will find all kinds of creative books including a super fun LEGO Play book, for when you want to switch from building with bones, to building with bricks!
