Ds2 is soooo depsperate for a 'proper' dinosaur egg. Not one of the ones that hatches into one do those godawful plastic dinosaur things, but a real one.

So I need a decent size egg that is fairly solid (but not too hard because he's a thrower - nearly 3) He has a mountain of those bouncy rubber hens eggs but his heart is set on a dinosaur egg.

I've googled and googled, giant egg, dinosaur egg, ostrich egg?!? But all I've come up with is more rubber eggs and the horrible ones that hatch!

Has anyone got any ideas?

I googled replica dinosaur egg if that helps

Well you could buy a real emu egg or sonething but they are quite easy to break. Could you just make one out of paper mache?

Tiger (and other places) sell the 'rock' eggs that you excavate to dig out a dinosaur fossil.

I've not searched the entire online shop but the natural history museum may have something. Plenty of dinosaur bits anyway

Have you googled dinosaur eggs? They are basically round rocks. Not even egg shaped.
Dino eggs still containing embryos are so fantastically rare that you don't even need to worry about that.
You're basically looking for a round rock. That's itSmile

You can get large wooden eggs for painting that might do

lol!! I wondered why I had been googling 'buy large round rock' late last night, then logged back on to mn.

have a search for Jurassic Jim on facebook this link might work
other than being incredibly helpful when you message him - or go in person if you are on the Isle of Wight, he is bound to have something that would pass as a possible dinosaur egg and not too pricey.
