Our Dotty Dinosaur craft is a hands-on and engaging activity that will challenge your students to utilise their developing fine motor skills.

Students will need to use their fine motor skills to control the cotton buds as they paint dots inside one of the three dinosaur templates. Holding a cotton bud requires students to use a pincer grip which is an essential skill for future writing tasks. As they repeatedly press the paint-covered cotton bud on the circles, they develop their coordination, control and spatial awareness. Two versions of the resource have been included:

1. Dinosaurs that are to be cut out.
2. Dinosaurs that are on a backing template with title and border.

Dotty Dinosaur Craft requires minimal preparation, simply print the template on cardstock and gather the required materials. A step-by-step guide is included with the resource to make this craft lesson as seamless as possible.

A banner is included with the resource that can be used to make a colourful and eye-catching display once your students have completed their dotty dinosaurs.
