Awhile ago someone gave us a Smithsonian activity for the kids. It is a chance for them to dig up dinosaur bones! It’s a big block of dirt that comes with tools like a geologic hammer  for excavating mini dinosaur replica bones. What is pretty cool about it is that the two dinosaurs in the kit are the triceratops and the t-rex, which were the two big dinosaurs that the kids saw this weekend. They have been asking to do this activity for months, so it was really neat to be able to do it the day after they got to see them in person. In typical three year old form, Big E had fun, but lost interest after awhile. However, C really got into it and was digging and digging. We eventually had to put it away to make room for dinner, but I do see many digging evenings in our future!
