Magic Up A Dinosaur With A Potion

The first ingredient you'll need is 0.6 square meters of Amazonian marsh water into your cauldron. If you don't have any of this lying around the house, you can pick it up easily on eBay.

Then add a volcanic rock from the time era of your choosing, I'm using a rock from the cretaceous period. This will influence which dinosaur you get.

Next you'll need some clifford tonic, just one drip is enough to get the reaction started.

A secret ingredient that can be found in the rainforest of south-east Norfolk, some Pearly Peters and Sapphire McNuggets. Empty both of the small jars into your cauldron and then put the lid on and leave your potion to stand.

When ready, you should find an egg as formed in the bottom of the cauldron, remove it carefully with an Anderson glove. It's a T-Rex egg.

Next make a comfy nest for the egg to lay in until it hatches, I made a nest for my egg out of brown paper.

You'll need to keep your egg warm during the incubation period. I used an old sock as a blanket to keep it warm.

Your egg should hatch within 7.8 days.

Remember to ask a parent's permission before creating your own dinosaur as even an infant dinosaur can be quite large.

You'll need to feed your dinosaur. The type of food varies depending on the type of dinosaur you create but tyrannosaurus rex loves pine nuts.
