It allows little one's to build on their fine motor skills with a simple yarn wrapping technique.  If you're making this yarn rainbow craft with toddlers, you can easily prep the cardboard rainbow form ahead of time.

We made a handful of these gradient yarn rainbows and hung them from a 8 ft. ribbon, to create a colorful garland for our playroom. I love to switch up the décor throughout the year in the playroom and add items that the kids make to the walls. It's such a happy little space! :-)

Upcycled Soda Bottle Dinosaur Terrarium Garden Inspired by Gigantosaurus [NEW on Disney Junior!] #Gigantosaurus

This post is sponsored by Cyber Group Studios / Disney Junior. All opinions expressed are my own.

Gigantosaurus makes it's BIG debut on Disney Channel tomorrow [at 9 a.m during the Disney Junior program block!]  We're celebrating today, with this Upcycled Soda Bottle Dinosaur Terrarium Garden kids craft - inspired by this fun new animated series for preschoolers!

We had the chance to check out a full episode of Gigantosaurus last week, and we were all absolutely delighted. This new animated series brings the pages of Jonny Duddle's book [of the same name] to life with beautifully vibrant and captivating animation, and story-lines that are written to inspire.  As a mom, I always look for programming that encourages my kids to explore new topics, navigate real-life lessons, and ask questions. Gigantosaurus checks all of those boxes, friends! The gorgeous animation grabbed them, then the questions started rolling in from my 2 year old. The never-ending list of "why'?" I love that! Little kids have such a thirst for knowledge. They always want to know the who, what, where, when, and why?! After we were finished watching Gigantosaurus,  there were lots of questions, lots of searching and reading, and tons of learning fun new facts about their new favorite topic; DINOSAURS! Seriously, folks, they are now officially obsessed with all things dinosaur related. Then, the crafting started!

First, we made DIY No-Sew Dinosaur Gloves, inspired by Gigantosaurus [click here for the full tutorial.] Then we made these fun Upcycled Soda Bottle Dinosaur Terrarium Gardens. The plant-life was crucial to the survival of many plant-eating dinosaurs during the cretaceous time period and it's so beautifully depicted in Gigantosaurus, so we thought these Dinosaur Terrariums were the perfect way to celebrate our favorite new show! These Dino Terrariums would also make a great make-and-take craft for a Gigantosaurus Dinosaur themed party.
