BGPF060 | Pretend Play Dinosaurs with Fuzzy Eating
By Dr. Rajeev Tamhankar
This activity brings the exciting world of dinosaurs to life, blending fun storytelling, role-playing, and interactive play to captivate children while making routine tasks, like feeding or playtime, more enjoyable. By creating a mini Jurassic Park setting, children are transported to a land of roaring dinosaurs, adventurous jungle trails, and thrilling feeding sessions.
- Lay out dinosaur toys or soft toys and create a mini Jurassic Park setup.
- Pretend the dinosaurs are hungry, jumping, or hiding in bushes, and involve the child in feeding or playing with them.
- Use sound effects like roaring and pretend cooking to keep the child entertained.
- Encourage the child to mimic dinosaur actions like chomping or crawling through tunnels made with blankets or pillows.
- Gradually introduce real food during play, pretending the dinosaurs want the child to eat like them.
- Encourages creativity and imagination.
- Builds interest in eating through fun storytelling.
- Promotes parent-child bonding.
- Match the child’s energy and interest level.
- Use naughtiness in storytelling if the child enjoys playful mischief.
- Keep sessions short if the child shows low engagement.
- End with a positive and calm scene, like tucking dinosaurs to sleep.
- Dinosaur toys or soft toys.
- Blankets or pillows for creating tunnels and lava paths.
- Pretend food items (e.g., fruits, veggies).
