Common questions

How do the tiny arms stay on?

Strap the tiny T. rex arms over your own arms at the elbows. They sit best on a hoodie with snug sleeves so they do not slide down.

What if I cannot find toy dinosaur arms?

Cut two small arms from green felt and pin them to the hoodie sleeves at the elbows. They will not grip the cup, so tuck the cup between the felt arms for photos.
