7 Days of Dinosaurs: Night Out of the Museum

They’re still young enough for gathering ’round the table as a whole family, so you don’t want to waste it on a boring old craft. How about making the museum one night in your dining room?

The new Micro Dinos in the Skeleflex line from Wild Planet lets kids create mini dinosaur models that look a heckuva lot like the real thing (OK, much smaller and made from plastic, but still – velociraptors! T-rex! Stegosaurus!).

Plastic pieces clip together easily (for kids six or seven . . . younger kids need help, and the pieces are too small for the youngest kids), and they’re ready for action. As long as your kids aren’t too rough, the dinos stand up to dino wars and roaming across the plains. When they fall apart? Just clip them back together.

Get the Micro Dinos for $7.95 a set from Wild Planet or buy a mega pack of them all from Amazon for $45.99.
