Let's Investigate: Dinosaur Footprints

These durable Dinosaur Footprint stones are suitable for use in sand, soil, mud and water - dig them up, make rubbings with pencils and crayons, and and use them as playdough stamps. Each double-sided stone shows a footprint and a dinosaur.

The set of 8 stones includes:

• Apatosaurus
• Deinonychus
• Hypsilophodon
• Iguanodon
• Quetzalcoatlus
• Stegosaurus
• Triceratops

Spark discussions about different types of dinosaurs, and why they have different footprints - which dinosaurs needed to run fast, and which ones could walk slowly?

How did their habitats and diets relate to their body shape and size, and the functionality of their legs and feet?

How do we know what their footprints looked like?

What information gets preserved in mud and rock, and how do we analyse it to learn about how dinosaurs looked like and how they lived?

These tactile sensory stones are perfect for any young palaeontologists wanting to learn more about the world of the dinosaurs!

Each stone measures approximately 90 x 60 mm.

Suitable for children and students ages 2+ years.
