Parents have been fighting with children about eating vegetables since dinosaurs roamed the Earth. Ideas come and go on how to solve the dilemma, but nothing ever seems to help consistently. Until “Dinosaur Time.” This TikTok trend is a very effective way to get kids to eat their veggies. @therevriley @sahmthingsup we are big fans over here #dinosaurtime ♬ original sound – TheRevRiley The popular TikTok trend of getting kids to eat veggies is often credited to user sahmthingsup. The stay-at-home mom may or may not have started the trend, but she has been the most successful at promoting it. The basic concept of this trend is to “chomp” leafy greens the way dinosaurs would. @alxandriasays it’s dinosaur time! shout out to @sahmthingsup for showing me a way to get oliver to willingly eat an unmasked veggie!!!!! #dinosaurtime #fyp ♬ At Jurassic World’s End Credits / Suite – Michael Giacchino Eating veggies becomes fun when you can grab a handful of spinach or Romaine lettuce and devour it. No fork, no bowl, no salad dressing, no prep time; just grab and chomp-chomp-chomp. Many adults find the trend a helpful way to “veggie pack” before a meal. They can move on to the “real” meal they enjoy by quickly eating a handful of greens and getting it out of the way. @moosediddly #dinosaurtime #dinosaurtime @sahmthingsup ♬ original sound – Moose For kids, the attraction to this style of eating is obvious. They get to pretend to be a dinosaur and be messy. There are no table manners and no rules beyond chomp-chomp-chomp. Some families have turned Dinosaur Time into a competition. Dinosaur Time works equally well with littles, tweens, and teens. It works with adults, too. If you’re a parent having trouble getting your family to eat leafy veggies, try Dinosaur Time. Eating Veggies With Your Kids Has Health Benefits Adding leafy greens to your daily routine has many health benefits. They contain vitamins A, C, K, and folate, as well as minerals, including calcium, magnesium, iron, and potassium. Leafy veggies contain fiber, which aids in healthy digestion, reduces bloating and inflammation, and can help regulate blood sugar. Additionally, they are a natural detoxifier, support brain health, strengthen bones, and reduce the risk of heart disease and other chronic health conditions. Try Dinosaur Time with your family.

There was a time when Shrinky Dinks® was on almost every child’s Christmas list. Betty Morris of Brookfield, Wisconsin, invented the plastic polymer sheets in 1973. Kids could color designs on the sheets and cut them into different shapes. With the magic of heat, the designs would shrink, allowing kids to make shrinky dink pictures, keychains, necklaces, charms, or whatever unimaginable little trinkets kids could devise. After reaching the peak of its popularity in the 1980s, Shrinky Dinks® faded into near obscurity. Crafters rediscovered the shrinkable polystyrene sheets, which are still available today. Some crafters have found that any #6 recycled plastic suits their creations. The sheets can receive print from standard inkjet printers, which makes them more versatile for some projects, including shrinky dink pictures. @katiethejane so satisfying this never gets old #shrinkydink #diycraft #keychain #photostrip ♬ sonido original – dinoedits_superandom Applying heat shrinks the polystyrene to about one-third of its original size and makes it thicker. When the heated items cool, they become rigid. Crafter Katie Jane has been exploring this material’s new-found versatility. Katie has a two-part tutorial detailing the entire process on her TikTok page. Part one of Katie’s tutorial explains the printing process and tips for perfecting your finished project. In part two, Katie explains the process of adding resin to projects. The resin adds a perfect finishing touch if you are a professional crafter. Part three hasn’t been posted yet, but Katie promises to add tips for using your shrinky dink creations to add flair to any fashion. If you are interested in this type of craft project, you can find many more tutorials and crafting ideas by searching #shrinkydink on TikTok. The ideas and tips are endless. Have fun exploring this throwback item and create new smiles. Please share if Shrinky Dinks® is on your Christmas list. You can find the source of this story’s featured image here.
