Dinosaur Egg Fossils

We bought a couple of dinosaur egg 'fossils' from the QVMAG shop yesterday so that the boys could pretend to be paleontologists.

Lesson #1: Paleontology is definitely not an indoor activity.

Lesson #2: My 4 & 5 year olds do not have the patience or strength to be paleontologists.

Banging the eggs together to crack them didn't work but a little assistance from Daddy armed with a screwdriver made the exercise a little shorter. Revealing... a triceratops!

Lesson #3: Screwdrivers and paleontology do not mix... Oops, a double amputee, beheaded Seismosaurus.

Superglue fixes everything!
