Posted on February 25, 2026
Wish you could take the dinosaurs home with you? Extend your experience with these fun activities inspired by Dinosaur World Live!
Dinosaur Bones
Have you ever wanted to go digging for dinosaur bones? Well, now you can! Use this simple recipe to create your own dinosaur bones. Have fun by hiding them around the house or even in a sandbox outside.
Safety Note: This activity is meant to be done WITH adult supervision. While all of the ingredients in the dough are edible, it is NOT meant for consumption. Adults should handle any steps that include using the oven. Kids should wait until the bones are completely cooled (at least one hour!) before handling them.
Materials
- Mixing bowl
- Baking sheet
- To make the salt dough:
- 2 cups of flour
- 1 cup of salt
- 1 cup of water
- Optional:
- Paint and paint brushes
- Printed out “Dinosaur Bones – Template” PDF
Instructions
- Mix flour, salt, and water in a mixing bowl to form a dough. You can get messy and use your hands!
- Once the dough is formed, use the dinosaur bones template to create shapes of realistic dinosaur bones.
- Pre-heat your oven to 250 degrees.
- Place your shaped dinosaur bones on a baking sheet and bake the bones for 3 hours. When they are finished, an adult should remove the tray using heat protective oven gloves. Let the bones sit for one full hour to make sure they are cooled completely before use.
- Activity suggestions:
- Use paint to color your dinosaur bones.
- Turn it into a game: Get a friend, parent, or sibling to hide the bones inside or outside your home. Then, find them and “dig them up” like a real archaeologist! Make sure to switch so everyone gets a chance to hide AND seek.
Dinosaur Egg Bites
Let’s make a delicious, sweet treat: Dinosaur egg bites! You can get creative and decorate them with color or keep them plain. Either way, make sure to eat them before they hatch!
Safety Note: This activity is meant to be done WITH adult supervision. Keep all cooking on a low heat and make sure the mixture isn’t too hot before children touch it.
Ingredients
- 1/2 stick of salted sweet cream butter
- 4 cups of mini marshmallows
- 4 cups of puffed rice cereal
- Optional: food dye (any color), melted chocolate, sprinkles.
Utensils
- Large saucepan
- Large spoon or spatula for stirring
- Baking tray
- Cooking spray or extra butter (for greasing your hands)
Instructions
- Note before starting: If you would like to make your dinosaur eggs multiple colors, divide the ingredients evenly into multiple saucepans or batches. You must add food coloring while the marshmallow/butter mixture is warm on the stove.
- In large saucepan, melt butter over a low heat. When the butter is melted, add your marshmallows and stir until mixture is completely smooth.
- Optional: If you would like to add food coloring to make different colored dinosaur eggs, this is the time to do it! Add a few drops to your pot and mix until color has blended in evenly.
- Mix in your puffed rice cereal and stir mixture until it is well coated. Turn off the heat.
- Use the cooking spray or extra butter to grease your hands and prevent sticking. Take a scoop of the mixture (about 1/3 cup) and shape it into an egg. Place all eggs on a baking sheet.
- Optional: If you would like to decorate your eggs, melt chocolate to drizzle over the top, shake on some sprinkles, or both! If you use chocolate, make sure to let it dry before serving.
- This treat can be enjoyed right away or stored at room temperature in an air-tight container for up to three days. If you want to store them in the fridge, they will last almost a week but make sure to take them out for about 30 minutes before eating so they aren’t too hard.
Dinosaur Bingo
Print out the PDF, cut out the pieces, and play a game of Dinosaur Bingo with up to 4 people. Do you recognize any of these dinosaurs from “Dinosaur World Live?” Make sure that, if you get a Bingo, you let out the loudest ROAR so everyone knows who won!
Materials
- Printed out bingo sheets, bingo cards, and fossil tiles
- Scissors
- Some kind of container to store and pull out the bingo cards
Preparation
- Print out all sheets from the PDF. Cut out the bingo cards and the fossil tiles.
- Place all fossil tiles in the middle so they can be easily reached by all players.
How to Play
- There will be one “caller” and up to four “players.” The caller will be in charge of pulling bingo cards out of the container. Each player will get one bingo sheet.
- The caller will pull out bingo cards and call out which dinosaur is on the card. If a player has that dinosaur on their sheet, they will put a fossil tile over its picture. Make sure to keep all fossil tiles in place until the end of the game. The first person to get three in a row wins!
Variations
- Play until someone has covered their whole sheet in fossil tiles.
- Instead of having one person be the caller, have all players take turns picking bingo cards.
