Grand Prize Winner: Hailey and her son. Full disclosure, Hailey is a previous giveaway winner here on THE ROCK FATHER Magazine, but that had no bearing on the skill of this creation. With her Mario-loving son taking part, it's little wonder that this Recyclosaurus bears not only a resemblance to Arlo, but also to Yoshi. Here's what Hailey had to say about their Good Dino:
"This was a fun homeschooling craft for my son and I! Our Arlo is made from many materials we found around our home. We then paper-mâché'd him with paper towels to give him a dinosaur skin texture before we applied paint.
Materials used: Paper and tin foil for the body/tail/neck (paper mached with paper towels dipped in water/glue mixture), popsicle sticks for legs, soda bottle caps for feet, beads for eyes, foam for nose, nail art decals for back spots, and painted with tempura paint and green food coloring for shading."
Runner-Up: Stephanie and her daughter. Stephanie added - "Brynn is OBSESSED with our homemade Arlo! We made him from a soda bottle, yogurt stick wrapper, toothpaste box, cup and clothes pins! She loves sharing her blueberries with him and Spot!"
Runner-Up: Jennifer and her daughter.
