Spring onion trees for Dino world

I remember curling spring onions in my childhood so when we had a spare day i showed Tara how easily it is done..
A bowl of icy cold water and a cutting of spring onion. Tara cut the spring onion length ways a few times
Then placed them in the water

Within seconds the spring onions had curled up!

I had planned on using these in a chicken soup but Tara had other ideas! "They are palm trees mummy!"

So we got started on creating a habitat of trees which led into...

Another Dino land! I'm not quite sure what it is about dinosaurs but they end up in many of our activities

And are hours of fun!
