The Partiologist: Rice Krispie Dinosaur Bones!

Rice Krispie Dinosaur Bones!

Once again I was distracted...this time at Michaels. I went in for something red, white and blue and came out with dinosaur bone molds.  In my defense, as soon as I walked in the front door, there they were, just waiting for me, oh and did I mention they were 50% off? 

It Was Dino-Mite!
 

Plus it was a learning lesson, I had no idea how to assemble the bones once I had the rice Krispie treats made.

I won't even tell you how I thought to assemble them.  Okay, maybe I will.


After arranging them several ways, I realized they probably don't have little feet coming out of the tail and finally got it right!
 
So simple you can make these for your little paleontologist or for an "Old As A Dinosaur" Birthday.
 
Here's how~
Grab that little bag of dino bones.
 
Try and figure out how to piece the puzzle together.
 
 Wash and spray the inside of each mold with Pam.
 
Mix your Rice Krispie Treat - I've got the easiest recipe below~
 
Press the RKT firmly in each mold.
 
Remove from mold and get ready for excavation.
 
I just loved the detail, look at those ribs!
 
And the recipe couldn't be easier~

  1. What a cool edible craft to do for a kid who is totally into dinosaurs. It would be fun to bring this treat into school for a party or even as a snack for a field trip to a museum. Fun!

  7. I could never pass on dino molds at 50% off, but I definitely would have had my kids help me figure out how to fit them all together! They turned out really great, I think the RKT are perfect for it!

  11. I laughed when I saw this because our stories are nearly identical, except that I knew my three year old wanted a dino party when he turned 4. So, I bought these, not knowing what I would do with them, then thought, RICE KRISPIES!! Our party is next weekend, and now that I know it will work (because you did it), I won't have to do a trial run!
