We are continuing with our series ‘Crafts that Start With the Letter A, B, C… ‘ . Today we are working with the letter D. We have several projects that start with D and, in fact, an entire category, Dinosaurs, all starting with the letter D.
Today we are featuring two of our double D projects. making four D’s altogether. We have our Dilophosauras Dinosaur and our Dalmatian Dog. Children of all ages are sure to love these projects.
