Holy macaroni! In the aftermath of ‘The Craziest Weekend We Have Ever Had’ (official title, more to follow in a future post), I completely forgot about something that is possibly my favourite thing ever ever……Dinovember! This is the month where all the dinosaurs in the house come to life in the night and get up to all sorts of mischief. A bit like elf on the shelf….but way cooler!
This will be our third year doing it and as the time went on, family and friends got really involved and started donating dinosaurs to the cause, we even had a few posted to us!
It is so much fun, except when you remember at 11pm and have to come up with something on the spot!
I will be posting them all on my facebook, twitter and instagram and I would love ideas and comments for those moments when my mind goes blank! Come and follow me and join in the fun, I’d love to see piccies if you decide to have a go too! 🙂
Here are a few of last years’ efforts:
- Escaping the dinosaur box.
- Dino wacky races.
- Preparing breakfast..badly.
- Polishing off the last of the birthday cake.
- A Dutch boat trip.
- Welcoming the new Dutch dinosaurs, (we went to Holland for Sinterklaas).
- Dino disco.
- Movie night.
- Going upstairs to visit the kids.
- Bath time.
- Fridge raid.
- Doll’s house takeover.
- Some new dinos arrive.
- Dino kitchen utensils band.
So much fun!!

That does look like so much fun! I bet the kids go wild for it. Can’t wait to do this kind of thing for my kid in a few years. Exciting! And much cooler than Elf on a Shelf.
Thanks so much for linking up to #fartglitter x

It is brilliant! I got lots in charity shops & at least 4 of them are donations! 🙂 We actually can’t find half of them still! Thanks for popping by. 🙂

OMG this is wacky and awesome. I love your pictures. I need to do something like this when my girly is older! I still think she may be a bit young for the Elf. Thanks for sharing with #bestandworst and see you soon x

Love this idea! The Dinos climbing up the steps and sink- too funny! I’m keeping an eye out for Dinovember! I love the name too – you’re so creative! Hope to see you again at #abitofeverything

I have to confess that I didn’t come up with it. If you look up ‘what the dinosaurs did last night’ they actually wrote a book about it. Thanks for hosting! 🙂

Confession accepted. 🙂 But you’re still fabulous anyway. I just laughed at your tweet! What do the neighbours say? LOL

Which one? The dino in the glass door?! The neighbours all think I’m ‘creative’, by that, I mean, a bit odd! 😂 We have a big bay window & I regularly change it to do with seasons etc. It started at Christmas last year & all the school kids used to go past & comment so I kept it up! 😊
