DIY DINOSAUR HAT

• Blank adjustable baseball hat in your choice of color

• White and black felt (stiffened felt would be best but standard felt works as well)

• Scissors

• Marker

• Glue gun & glue sticks

• Additional colored felt (optional if you'd like to add spots on the sides)

WHAT YOU NEED:

Directions:Be sure to ask an adult for help.

Prep the eyes and spikes: Draw 2 eyes (about 2 inches tall by 1 inch wide) and 3-4 equilateral triangles (about 1 1/2 inches tall by 1 1/2 inches wide) from the white felt. Draw and cut out 2 pupils from the black felt. Glue the pupils where you want them.

Prep the teeth: Place your hat on your white felt and roughly cut out a "U" shape of felt that will fit under the bill and stick out about an inch. Once you have the strip the size you want it, snip off triangles to make jagged teeth.

Attach the eyes and spikes: Glue the eyes onto the round part of the hat, on either side of the center of the bill. Grab your first spike, place glue on the center seam of the hat where you want the spike, then carefully press one edge of the spike into the glue, holding in place until the glue dries. Repeat for each spike. Allow glue to set.

Attach teeth: Turn your hat upside down and arrange the teeth right where you want them. One section at a time, lift the section of the teeth slightly off the hat and lay a line of glue down on the hat where the felt goes. Carefully press the felt teeth onto the glue on the hat. Repeat for the other two sections of the teeth. Allow glue to dry. Ta-da! You're ready for some roaring, stomping fun!
