Purchase this PATTERN to create a Paleontologist friend!

As a paleontologist, Dinah loves learning about dinosaurs. Paleontologists are scientists who study fossils. Workers on dig sites carefully collect specimens and preserve them so that scientists can study them later to learn about what dinosaurs and other prehistoric creatures were like and how they lived.

Customize this design for the dinosaur lover (or budding archaeologist, field researcher, or explorer) in your life. Select skin tone, hair color, and clothing colors. What colors will you chose?

Dinah’s messenger bag can contain whatever you choose. Perhaps it holds tools, a research notebook, or even specimens!
