Supplies needed for a Dinosaur Ice Rescue

How do you make this Dino Rescue Ice Sensory Play?

Place one dinosaur in each section of the ice tray.
You can allow for some of the dinosaur like the tail to stick out a bit. This makes it easier so that the child had something to hold onto as they work the dinosaur out of the ice.
Fill the ice tray with water.
Place in the freezer until frozen.

When they’re hard and ready, remove from the freezer.
Place the frozen dinosaur ice cubes into a bin.
