Crafting with kids – Triceratops wooden cutout, 3–50 cm

The little guests for the dinosaur-themed birthday party will be here any minute. And the birthday table is still missing a matching detail. A wooden Triceratops as table scatter or a craft blank brings the theme straight to the table. It's unfinished plywood, ready to paint, decorate or use just as it is. Made for your next crafting day with kids.

What changes for you

• Your craft project can start straight away. The wood is unfinished, so you can paint it, decorate it, coat it or oil it.
• Your birthday table gets a consistent dino theme with very little effort. Just scatter small Triceratops silhouettes across the table, and you're done.
• You choose exactly the size that suits your idea. From 3 cm to 50 cm wide, in 1 cm steps.
• Group projects at nursery or school are easy to plan. With sets of 10, 25, 50 or 100 pieces, every child gets their own dino.
• You can carry on without sanding. The edges are laser-cut and smooth.

Why this wooden Triceratops makes a difference in everyday use

When crafting with kids, it matters that you can get started quickly and the result looks good. A clearly recognisable wooden dino silhouette is the base for any project. Use it as a painted figure at each guest's place, as a tag on a school cone or as decoration in a child's bedroom. Instead of short-lived cardboard, you're holding a natural material that feels good and lasts a long time.

Material & finish

The Triceratops is laser-cut from 3 mm plywood. This gives it the typical brown edge. It's a sign of laser cutting and gives the silhouette a finely drawn outline. The edges are smooth, so even small hands can craft with it safely. The wood is completely unfinished, neither varnished nor glazed. That's why paint, glue and oil stick to it especially well. As a natural material, wood is never completely uniform. Differences in shade, fine grain patterns and small knots are part of it. They make every piece one of a kind. Every cutout is made in our own production in Pößneck, Thuringia.

Good to know about the Triceratops

The name Triceratops comes from Greek and means “three-horned face”. It's named after the three distinctive horns that also make the silhouette so easy to recognise. The Triceratops is one of the best-known and most popular dinosaurs among children. So the motif is recognised instantly on the birthday table or in a craft project.

Care & durability

There's not much you need to do. Simply store the unfinished plywood somewhere dry and protect it from constant moisture. If you paint, coat or oil the surface, it becomes more durable. That way the silhouette keeps looking good for a long time.

Frequently asked questions

Can I paint the wood? Yes. The surface is unfinished, neither varnished nor glazed. You can paint it, decorate it, coat it or oil it.

Why is the edge brown? The Triceratops is laser-cut. This creates the typical brown edge with smooth edges. No sanding is needed.

Do all cutouts look the same? The shape does, the wood not quite. As a natural material, plywood shows differences in shade, fine textures and small knots. Every piece is one of a kind.

How tall is the dino at the width I want? For reference: at 10 cm wide, the height is 4 cm. Other sizes follow the same ratio.

A wooden cutout is only the start. The best part is the moment a child holds up the dino they painted themselves and beams. Just choose your size and the number of pieces you need. Then the next dino adventure can begin.
