TThe big activity for our dinosaur day is always a fossil dig. This simple fossil dig is relatively easy to prepare and is simple enough for even the youngest paleontologist in training to participate in. Pick a spot in you garden or yard that you don't mind digging up. I usually reserve someplace where I know I'm going to have to reseed/patch or a spot in the garden I'm going to want to till and replant.
What you'll need

Setting up
Set up when the kinds aren't watching. I usually do it at night after they've gone to bed. It is a bit of a pain, especially if it is dark, but having them wake up to a prepared dig site adds to the excitement.
