I’m sharing a “round up” of dinosaur activities for kids as part of the HOPE FOR HOPE. This blog hop was set up to honor a very special little girl. Her name is Savannah Hope, Heather of Crayon Box Chronicles‘ daughter. While I’ve never met the family, Heather is a blogging bud of mine. I’ve been invested in Savannah Hope’s story since Heather announced her pregnancy. Savannah was born on June 10, 2014 and has been fighting for her life ever since (due to Congenital Diaphragmatic Hernia). I decided to focus on dinosaurs for more part of the HOP FOR HOPE because of all the fun dinosaur ideas found over at Crayon Box Chronicles.

Hands-On Science Materials
Everyone learns differently. But young children seem to be more interested in learning when they are able to connect with the subject. And that’s where hands-on science comes in! I find that letting children experience hands on science gets them excited to explore various science topics. With that in mind, you might want to keep your classroom stocked with some great science materials.
Check out this list and decide which items will work well in your classroom (I may get commissions for purchases made through links in this post):
- Science magnet kit
- Magnifying glass set
- Kid-friendly tongs
- Jumbo eye droppers
- Sensory tubes
- Safety goggles
- Pipettes
- Science mix and measure set
- Sensory bottles
- Sensory bins
- Butterfly net set
The children are going to absolutely love learning about these science tools. And I know they’ll love getting to use them even more!
