Finding Fossils

A great gift that Noah got this year was from Aunt Bev. It was literally a chunk of rock/plaster with plastic dinosaur bones embedded inside. Noah had to chip away at the chunk, dig out all of the bones and put them together. He had a lot of fun doing this. I found it quite appropriate that he was wearing his dinosaur pajamas when he decided to take on this project.
You can see that he has made progress and some of the bones are starting to show....
Well on his way to finding a complete "skeleton"....

That has to be way on the top of greatest gift ideas for Noah Wayne... Where in the world did she find it?? That is an amazing idea.

I believe that it was a Scholastic item, which doesn't surprise me at all. They have some pretty cool stuff at the book fairs hosted by Noah's school. Noah says it's a stegosaurus...
