Step 2: Color in the template.
Use a favorite medium to color in the brachiosaurus and then carefully cut out all the dinosaur elements.
Step 3: Roll the body piece.
Apply a spread of glue to the long tab on the body piece, then join the two sides together to form a large paper roll, creating the main body of the dinosaur.
Step 4: Affix the brachiosaurus’ tail.
Apply a spread of glue to the tail tab and attach it to the dinosaur body piece. Once secure, fold the tail downward to create a slight bend.
Step 5: Prepare the dinosaur’s head.
Cut a small slit into the bottom of the head piece, stopping at the dotted line.
Next, fold the two newly created tabs upwards, then fold the neck and head in half, securing them with glue while leaving the tabs free.
Step 6: Affix the dinosaur’s head.
Apply a spread of glue to the tabs, then attach the dinosaur’s head to the body piece, securing it firmly in place.
Step 7: Prepare the dinosaur’s legs.
Fold the tabs along the solid lines on each leg, then secure the final tab to the inside of the leg to create a triangular shape, forming a sturdy base that allows the dinosaur to stand.
Step 8: Affix the dinosaur’s legs.
Attach the dinosaur’s legs to the body, adjusting their positioning as needed to ensure they are even and allow the dinosaur to stand securely.
The step-by-step tutorial is complete and your Arty Crafty Kids will now have a wonderful 3D brachiosaurus to play with!
