Fun Facts About Dinosaurs and Water
People used to think giant long-necked dinosaurs lived in water to support their weight. Today we know they were land animals. Still, dinosaurs needed water to drink like all animals, and rivers and lakes meant lots of food nearby. Many fossils have been found in ancient river deposits, because bones were quickly covered by sand and mud there. Dinosaurs lived in the Mesozoic Era on every continent, even Antarctica.
What to Do With Your Finished Waterfall Dino
Glue blue paper strips or cellophane over the water ribbons so the waterfall really sparkles. Or lightly paint the background with watercolors afterward. While you read a story together, someone can make a waterfall shaker from rice in a tin.
Color Ideas for the Waterfall
From icy blue to turquoise, anything goes:
Switching between light and dark blue makes the water flow.
Leaving a few spots blank makes the water look foamy.
