What Treasures Come from Dinosaur Times?

To dinosaur scientists, fossils are real treasures! One very special find happened in 2016: inside a piece of amber being sold at a market, researchers discovered part of a small dinosaur’s tail – with real feathers! Amber is fossilized tree resin. When small animals or plant bits got stuck in it, they were often perfectly preserved. That gave scientists their first super-close look at a dinosaur’s feathers.

Fun Ideas for Your Pirate Dino

Draw what the dino found in its chest – gold, gems, or fossils? Hide a “treasure” in the yard and draw a treasure map to it. Or make an eye patch from black construction paper!
