Dinosaur eggs erupting bath fun

Jake and Cate have really been into the dinosaur play, so I made them a fun erupting dinosaur bath for them to play in.


I put together some dinosaur eggs with dinosaurs in them for them to erupt in the bath along with some volcano play. You can also do this fun activity in a Dinosaur sensory bin as well. We did the bath cause Jake asked if they could do a volcano/dinosaur bath.

Materials:
Baking soda
Hair conditioner( you can also just use a small amount of water to get it damp as well)
Instant coffee (dry)
Vinegar
Small dinosaurs
 
 

 
How to make dinosaur eggs:
Mix 2 cups baking soda, 1/4 cup of hair conditioner or 2 teaspoons of water, and 1/2 cup of dry instant coffee. Once it is all blended together then mold around the dinosaur like a rock. Place on a plate or tray and let them sit for 24 hours if you want them hard like rocks. The longer you let them sit the harder they are.


The dinosaur feet are cut out of craft foam.


Use vinegar to make the eggs and volcano erupt.
Volcano and erupting dinosaur eggs.....o what fun!!!


You can see after they played the water looked like swamp water. 

We haven't done a lot of messy baths cause the kids have sensitive skin, but they had a lot of fun with this bath.

While they were playing I read a couple of our favorite dinosaur books as well.
