You can buy fun-fur in patches at crafts-supply stores, but you can also fashion Diego's hair from felt.



What You Need
Diego's Great Dinosaur Rescue printable
Brown crayon
Red crayon
Scissors
Craft glue
Fine black marker
Large plastic orange egg, about 3 1/2 inches tall
Fun fur in brown
Orange felt or construction paper
Green craft foam or construction paper
Stapler or clear adhesive tape



What You Do

Step 1
For the face: Using the printable, have kids color Diego's eyes brown and tongue red. Cut out the eyes and tongue. Glue them onto egg. With the black marker, draw eyebrows and a nose.



Step 2
For the hair: From the fun fur, cut a 4- by 2-inch strip. With scissors, create jagged cuts for bangs. Glue the hair onto the head, draping it across the top of the egg.



Step 3
For the ears: From the orange felt, cut two small crescent shapes. Drag their cut edges through a dot of glue and press them onto the side of the egg.



Step 4
For the safari vest: From green craft foam or construction paper, cut a 1- by 7-inch strip. Cut a small tab at its center (for beneath Diego's chin). Curl the strip and staple or tape it closed. Set Diego in the loop.
