What a night, dinosaur night was so much fun. The boarders made their own Dino Eggs, ‘cryogenically’ froze them, and then hatched them later in the evening using some kitchen science. They looked at a selection of 1960s paleoart and spotted the errors and assumptions that had been made. The boarders then learned how to draw a dinosaur, from just a square, a triangle and a circle, with a scientist and artist from the Natural History Museum. And that’s not all…back in the boarding house the boarders found a dinosaur snoozing in the dorms and discovered a dinosaur nest. They had an absolute hoot trying to hatch their eggs before settling down with hot chocolate and a quiz to find who knew their Triassic Period from the Jurassic Period. @natural_history_museum
