Buddy loves dinosaurs, but until recently, we didn’t have many to play with at our house. However, he got these in his Easter basket, and now we have a lot! He was so excited to see his new dinosaurs, and he couldn’t wait to play!

I decided to create a fun play area for Buddy and his dinosaurs. I emptied our sensory bin, and added some green felt. Then, I cut some blue felt to create a lake. I also used felt to create a volcano. The base of the volcano was stiff felt, and then I stapled it to create a cone shape. Then I used staples and fabric glue to add on extra layers to the volcano.

The last time I was at the dollar store, I had this dinosaur bin in mind while I shopped. I found two fake ferns and two bags of different sized rocks. I curled up the fern stem to make it stand up, and then I reenforced it with some river rocks. The final touch was a couple of sticks I found outside. 

Buddy was thrilled with this dinosaur world sensory bin! He loves to make his dinos drink the water and eat the leaves. They walk along the logs and up the volcano. 

Some of his tiniest dinosaurs from this dinosaur toob even fit into the volcano!

This is one of my favorite sensory bins we’ve done. It’s so much fun, and not messy at all! Buddy had this out at his birthday party last weekend (more to come about that soon), and it was a huge hit!
