My son is blind so I could simply screw up the paper and tell him that all dinosaurs were round balls, just like screwed up paper. A bit like planes and busses in that respect. To him I am the king of Origami becuase I can make anything!

Take your cue from one of my favourite children's books, "The Little Prince"
The Little Prince: Chapter 2

Make a box. Tell said child that the velociraptor is safe inside the box, and under no circumstances must he open it.

An origami tyrannosaurus would be a doddle surely - one big fold for the head and a couple for the legs.

I wouldn't promise the kid a stegasaurus though - That could get tricky.

I hope this child is easily pleased - Paper dinosaurs aren't exactly the latest word in exciting special effects
