Project with the kids – Dinosaur

My son came to me and said that he wants to build a dinosaur. I told him that then he has to design one and this was the result.

He even described the mechanism to move the jaw; “a metal bar through the side so it can move up an down”. Then he also learned the new word “hinge”.

This was a little project that was not difficult to make but very fulfilling in the end.

The original design and the end result.
All the details should be included in the wooden version too.
My son stood for the painting.
The designer himself.
Dinosaur vs. the Man of Steel.
Fight!
