DIY Way To Make Paper Dinosaur

Quick and easy to make this papercraft is perfect to make with little ones from around 3 years old and up - just remember the plastic table cloth!

Ingredients

Large paper plate
Scissors
Pencil
Glue
Toilet roll
Acrylic paint
Paint brush
Wiggle eyes

Method

* Fold a large paper plate in half, and cut into 2 to create the 'shell' of your dinosaur.

* Take one half of the plate and draw and cut a head, a tail and triangular spikes in whatever shapes you fancy. Glue these to the second half of the plate to start to create the template for your dinosaur.

* To make the feet, measure and cut a toilet roll into 3. Take 2 pieces and cut slits in the top on opposite sides. Insert the dinosaur's body onto the feet so it's stable and can stand.

* Paint the dinosaur with your chosen colour of acrylic paint and leave to dry - this could take a few hours.

* Add a wiggle eye to the dinosaur's head to give yours some character and a face with personality. Now all that's left to do is to name your new pet!
