This is a delightful short story about a boy named Felix who discovers a dinosaur in his garden! Through his unexpected adventure, the story explores the meaning of friendship and encourages discussions about connecting with someone who may be different from you. To enrich learning, there is a thematic map that links the fascinating world of dinosaurs to a variety of cross-curricular ideas. These are just some of the activities and concepts I have used as a teacher within EYFS and KS1 to spark curiosity and creativity in young learners.
