Ema u svetu dinosaurusa 1. deo - Ema in the world of Dinosaurs part 1

Ema je već neko vreme zainteresovana za dinosauruse. Sve je počelo tako što je na TV-u gledala Zemlju pre vremena i T-reks ekspres.

Pošto nas je stalno zapitkivala o tome kakvi su dinosaurusi, gde žive, šta jedu i tome slično, kupili smo joj jednu sjajnu knjigu u izdanju Male Lagune - Dinosaurusi. Knjiga je odlična i Emi se jako dopala. Sadrži mnoštvo nalepnica, zanimljivih tekstova prilagođenih uzrastu od 4-5 godina, praktičnih zadataka (lavirint, slagalica), kreativnih zadataka i slično. Naučili smo da postoje dinosaurusi biljojedi i mesojedi (po Eminom shvatanju su biljojedi oni koje smemo da mazimo, a mesojede ne smemo da diramo jer su opasni), koje su veličine bili dinosaurusi, čemu su im služile bodlje na leđima i čemu im je služio rep. Sve u svemu - odlična zabava!

Potom smo iz biblioteke pozajmili jednu ogromnu knjigu - Vilijeva priča o dinosaurusima. Knjiga je zaista ogromnog formata, a pored tekstova o najzanimljivijim dinosaurusima nalaze se i njihove 3D slike. Pošto smo kupovali novine Blic radi serijala Dinologija (takođe sa 3D slikama), sada imamo i 3D naočare, pa možemo da razgledamo i jedno i drugo.

Na tržištu postoji ogroman izbor knjiga na ovu temu, što onih sa nalepnicama, što enciklopedijskih izdanja. Međutim, s obzirom na relativno visoku cenu, preporučujem vam da prvo obiđete lokalnu biblioteku, pa se tek onda zaputite u knjižaru.

Pošto je Ema u knjizi naišla na lavirint, poželela je da ih nađemo još. Mi, nažalost, nemamo štampač kod kuće, pa sam morala da improvizujem (precrtala sam jedan postojeći lavirint i docrtala dinosaurusa), ali vi možete posetiti jedan od ovih sajtova i odabrati šta vam se dopada (link 1, link 2, link 3). A na sledećim stranicama možete pronaći dodatne aktivnosti u vezi sa dinosaurusima (bojanke, aktivnosti u vezi sa crtanim filmom Zemlja pre vremena i igrice na sajtu crtanog filma T-reks ekspres, uz napomenu da su igre odlične, ali nepraktične ako vam dete ne govori engleski, jer ćete morati da sedite uz njega i prevodite mu šta se od njega traži).

Još aktivnosti na ovu temu stiže u narednom postu.

Ema has been interested in the world of dinosaurs of quite a while. Everything started with the cartoons The Land Before Time and Dinosaur Train.
She kept asking us what dinosaurs really looked like, how big they were, what they ate, etc. So we bought her this book  - Sticker Activity Dinosaurs, published by DK. She enjoyed the book very much. It has lots of stickers, interesting texts appropriate for kids ages 4 to 5, practical tasks (a maze, a puzzle), creative tasks and lots more. We have learnt that there are herbivore and carnivore dinosaurs (Ema understands this difference like this: you can pet the herbivores, but not the carnivores because they can eat you), how big they are, what the spikes on their backs are used for and what the purpose of the dinosaurs' tails is. All in all, the book is great fun!

Then we went to the library and borrowed a giant book about dinosaurs - Vili's Tale about Dinosaurs. The book is really huge and offers texts about the most interesting dinosaurs, as well as 3D pictures of them. We have 3D glasses that we got in a newspaper called Blic, that has also published parts of the Dinology book, so now we can browse both.

There is a vast variety of books on the market that deal with dinosaurs, from sticker and activity books to encyclopaedias, but I suggest visiting your local library first.

In one of the books there was a dinosaur maze, which Ema really liked. She wanted to solve more maze activities, but, since we don't have a printer, I had to improvize. I copied one of the mazes we had from before and added the dinosaur theme. In these pages you can find ready made mazes (link 1, link 2, link 3). In the following pages you can find more interesting activities dealing with dinosaurs (colouring pages, Land Before Time related activities and games offered at the official web site of the Dinosaur Train cartoon).

Make sure to read my next post for more dinosaur activities :)
