Scouts - Digging in the Past

Our first adventure for this requirement was playing a dinosaur matching game. It was harder then it looked. Thanks to the PBS show, and Jurassic World Lego video game, Peter and Luke knew all the names of these dinosaurs.

Then we created an imaginary dinosaur, decided it's name, what it eats, and where it lives. Of course, it is made out of Legos. Peter is obsessed with all things Lego right now.

Thanks to the hand-me-down school supplies from my Grandmother, we were able to create our own dinosaur dig.

His favorite part was using the hammer to smash the stone to little bits of dust after all the bones had been found. It was so funny. Here he is in his own words describing what he did: 

Then, lest we forget that scouts are always hungry, we made edible fossil layers. The Swedish fish I bought to "float" in the pudding was not a hit. But, the rest of the desert was quickly devoured and appreciated by all the boys in the family. It also doubled as our FHE treats which ended up being the perfect way to end our evening together.
