These dinosaurs are made from half a paper plate and some pre-cut card or paper shapes.  I got the idea from The Craft Train who also have some other dinosaur plate designs – this was the simplest.

You will need:

• Paper plates
• Coloured card or paper
• Glue
• Crayons, pens or pencils
• Googly eyes (optional)

In advance, cut out sets of heads, tails and legs (template here).  I managed to get two lots out of a single sheet of A4 by careful arrangement of the shapes.

Children glue the shapes to one half of a paper plate, and add facial features and colour as much as they like!
