Visit our website for more info about the #BreakthroughFestival: https://www.sciencefriday.com/breakthroughfestival We’re kicking off the #BreakthroughFestival with a dino draw-off! Learn a bit about how dinosaurs became birds, then practice your drawing skills with our hands-on activity for kids and caregivers. Breakthrough scientist Jingmai O’Connor studies how dinosaurs learned to fly, and in this livestream, you’ll learn how dinosaurs walked. Don’t forget to share with us your works-in-progress and final artworks with the hashtag #KidsPaleoArt. We encourage attendees to watch the Breakthrough video featuring Jingmai O’Connor in advance of the event: The Avian Authority. All Breakthrough videos are family friendly! If you want to create along with us, grab the following crafty materials: - Something to draw with (such as: crayons, pencil, pen, marker!) - Something to draw on (for example: printer paper, butcher paper, notebook!) For our middle school aged viewers, you can also gather: - 2-oz plastic mini cups - One 1.4-in foam ball - Toothpick - Rubber band - Scissors - Brass fastener - Cotton balls
