Supporting Teachers and Home Educators with Learning Resources

Everything Dinosaur Supporting Teachers and Home Educators

For the staff at Everything Dinosaur, the interests of our customers, our team members and our communities are at the very heart of all that we do.  At this particularly challenging time with the continuing Coronavirus (COVID-19) outbreak, we want to do our best to help all those people having to teach children either at home or in school.

We want to let you know that you remain our top priority and we are doing all we can to assist schools, parents, guardians, nurseries and home educators.

To date, Everything Dinosaur has provided hundreds of free downloads of teaching materials and other resources.

Take for example, this free junior word search and crossword that we have been sending out.  Aimed at young children with a fascination for dinosaurs, our word search contains seven words associated with dinosaurs and prehistoric animals, can you find them all?

The Benefits of Word Games

Word games such as word search puzzles and crosswords have many benefits.  Firstly, they assist with the development of pattern recognition, a key cognitive function in humans.  For young dinosaur fans, our word search also improves spelling, assists in vocabulary development and above all, it is fun.

The word search puzzles (and the answers), can be requested by simply emailing Everything Dinosaur: Email Everything Dinosaur.

A spokesperson for the UK-based company commented:

“Over the last few weeks, we have all been working very hard to support teachers and home educators.  With many children now at home and unable to go to school, we have been providing lots of helpful teaching resources and other learning materials to help assist with home schooling.”

An Extension Idea

How about creating your own wordsearch?  It could be about dinosaurs or any other subject that you wish.  If you are learning about the Romans, why not try creating a Roman-themed word search that you can try out on a family member.  Perhaps, you could record the time it takes for each person to complete the challenge and create a chart to display the results.

Mojo Fun Lucky Golden Rat Models – Helping to Spread Smiles

Everything Dinosaur team members want to pay tribute to all those customers who have received a special Mojo Fun lucky golden rat model in with their Everything Dinosaur parcel over the last few weeks.  As our stock of these rare Mojo Fun golden rat charms runs out we are having to stop this little gesture of goodwill towards our customers.  However, we wanted to respond and acknowledge the level of support that we have received from our customers.

At Everything Dinosaur, we don’t just simply supply Everything Dinosaur toys and games, we send out smiles too.

Sending Out Mojo Fun Lucky Charms

Mojo Fun has produced a limited edition run of golden lucky rat key rings, to celebrate the Chinese year of the rat.  In the Chinese zodiac, the rat is the first animal in the cycle of animals and the year of the rat represents a time for fresh starts and new beginnings.  People born in the year of a rat are thought to be hard-working and industrious.

In Chinese astrology, those born in the year of the rat are diligent with a positive outlook on life.  They also like to collect things and involve themselves with many interests and hobbies.  Such a hobby might be prehistoric animal model collecting.  Everything Dinosaur certainly has lots of customers in the Far East.
