Time: 45 minutes

Level:  Quick and easy (with adult assistance)

Here's what you need:

• Mini Glue Dots®
• Scissors
• Pencil

• Colorbox cardstock
• Googly eyes
• Dinosaur printable template

Here's what you do:

Print dinosaur template and cut along the lines.

Trace template onto cardstock and cut out.
Attach teeth to the backside of the dinosaur head and lower jaw with Mini Dots. Make sure that your teeth stick out just enough to be seen.

Use Mini Dots to adhere dinosaur to clothespin, lower jaw first.

 Tips:

• Use Removable Dots to keep template in place as you trace it onto cardstock.
• For easier Mini Dot placement, using something pointed, like a scoring tool, can be helpful.
