Step 1
Select a Pteranodon hand puppet. The Pteranodon was a flying reptile that is believed to have lived during the Cretaceous period. An interesting fact about the Pteranodon that can spark discussion and stimulate learning is that while it existed during the time of the dinosaurs, it is not really considered to be a dinosaur.

Step 2
Consider a Tyrannosaurus Rex hand puppet. This bright, multi colored hand puppet is always a favorite. T-Rex is a perennial favorite among kids and adult dino enthusiasts alike. And it's no wonder, as the Tyrannosaurus Rex was a huge meat eating dinosaur the reached lengths of over 40 feet and had enormous teeth that it used to tear giant chunks from its prey.

Step 3
Order a Velociraptor hand puppet. The Velociraptor is another all time favorite dinosaur that reached new levels of popularity after its prominence in the Jurassic Park films. The Velociraptor was a highly intelligent dinosaur that hunted in packs and could reach speeds of 40 mph. That is about twice as fast as the fastest human sprinter. Velociraptor hand puppets are cute and cuddly, a far cry from the real thing.

Create an entire world of dinosaurs right in your own living room by ordering each of the different available puppets. Your kids can create puppet shows with plant eating and meat eating dinosaurs and imagine their own worlds of long ago, just like scientists do today.
