Dinosaur Footprint Painting Activity

Do you have toy dinosaurs at home? Try this Dinosaur Footprint Painting Activity with your kids!

This activity is one of the fastest activities you can set up! In addition to it being super easy and quick, it also requires only paint, dino’s, paper plate and a piece of brown paper roll, most of which you probably have at home already! Kids will love to dip the dinosaurs feet into the paint and make fun, colorful footprints! Get creative. Make colorful patterns, trails, stamp by size, etc. The possibilities are endless, which means kids will stay busy with this activity long enough!

Who doesn’t love a quick way to entertain kids and keep them occupied and busy? Take a peak below for full list of materials and more!

Simple sensory play idea for today using beet-dyed Simple sensory play idea for today using beet-dyed rice and a few fun sensory tools 💗  Now, yes, you’ve read that right. I dyed this rice using a little bit of beet water (from boiling beets) and about a tablespoon of distilled white vinegar. Add all into a big ziploc bag, shake and spread out on a sheet pan to dry completely, I like to do this overnight. This recipe is without any dyes, which I try to avoid. Even food dyes contain “lakes” and toxic stuff.  The beet water made a lovely deep pink color, perfect for Valentine’s Day! If you try this recipe out, let me know in the comments if you enjoyed it AND TAG me so I can take a peak!  SAVE for later and TAG your friends below to share!
