The mini monsters make lizards and for the youngest crafters we have a pattern for a baby dinosaur. Isn't that fun? With perler beads you can make anything you like, all you need is a pattern and a mom or grandma with an iron! We took care of the patterns, do you have a mom or gran with an iron?

First choose the colors you like.

Start with the head.

Then paw by paw.

To the tip of the tail.

Finally add on a tongue, using 3 red perler beads.

Call Mum (or gran) with the baking paper and iron.

Turn the iron on high heat but without the steam!

Iron circular, for +/- 20 seconds.

Gently peel off the baking paper .

Let your craft cool down a tat.

Place a stack of heavy books on top.

Sometimes larger Perler bead crafts warp a bit, but a stack of thick books flattens them again nicely. Then your lizard is ready!

Peel off the baking paper.

Remove the dinosaur gently.

Hang baby on a keychain.

If you want to attach a key ring to your animal, ask mom (or grandma) if she wants to poke a bigger hole with a hot needle

The lizard can be on display in your room right away, but also fun things can be made with these animals. With a key ring on it, you can hang your lizard or dino on your school bag.

Have fun with it!
