This is literally the easiest way to make a little boys wrapping paper fun and exciting!!!! I was tipped by this little boy's mama that he LOVES dinosaurs. So I got him an animal planet dinosaur set that includes mountain ranges and and other landscape for them to roam on as his main gift. I wanted the wrapping to match the theme of the gift. I have seen other people use old maps as gift wrap before and have been wanting to try it for awhile now. Then thought I could get some more dinosaurs to affix to the outside and make them appear as if they are roaming the earth
All you need is:
- Brown wrapping paper
- tape
- Set of dinosaurs ( I got mine at Toy's R us) they came in a big container
- old maps ( I used an image of Northern California)
You wrap your gift with the brown wrapping paper
then cut out a piece of map or however you want to place the map on the paper and secure it to the brown wrap.
Then you arrange your dinosaurs on the box and tape their feet down with some good tape as they will fall over if you use regular scotch tape. I used heavy duty packaging tape,
Then instead of using an ordinary tag for the gift I used old paint chips that I had laying around after a home project we completed. The birthday boy loved the gift and his reaction totally payed off for just putting in a minimal amount of effort. I can't wait to go to another kid's party because this was way too much fun!! Thanks for letting us celebrate your special day with you Parker
