Dinosaur Days

Description

Imagine a time over 100 million years ago when dinosaurs roamed the Earth! Felt boards are a classic play medium that have been used for generations to inspire young minds. Each Felt Tales board features over 20 beautifully illustrated pieces and a special story to inspire the imagination which makes it an educational toy.

Why we love it

Dinosaur Days is great for a 3 year old because its so compact and mobile. Its a self-contained, go-anywhere toy that sparks imagination and creativity.

Product Features

• Remove all the pieces from the Dinosaur Days felt board. Sit with your little one and ask him/her to describe each piece using a variety of adjectives. For example, the Stegosaurus has a long neck, spots etc. You may have to lead your child to help him/her think of ways to describe what he/she sees. "What does the Triceratops have on its head?"
• As far as educational toys go, felt boards are a great way to envision a story. Tell your child a story using the board to move the characters around.
• Next, create a scene with the dinosaurs and have your child make up a story. Try this as a joint activity by taking turns adding a sentence to the story and building on what the other person said.
• Work on categories and subcategories by grouping the felt pieces by color, what they are or other descriptive characteristics. "Put together all the dinosaurs."
• Turn this into a fishing game by making a fishing pole attaching a piece of Velcro to the end of a string. Catch a felt piece on your line before placing it on the board.
