Nugget Comfort Dinosaur/Monster build!

Want to build a Nugget dinosaur? Here’s how to to it!

Today I’m excited to share a really fun build idea with you – a dinosaur! Or, a monster. A dragon? Whatever your kids want it to be!

It’s not really a climbing build, it’s just for dramatic effect.

You can see a full video tour of this build on my Instagram.

Nugget monster, dinosaur, dragon

You need 2 nuggets to build this. You can use 2 additional triangles from another nugget or a pillow pack to help prop open the head pieces.

Here are my favorite 2 Nugget build ideas!

OR you can instead use pillows – bed pillows, couch pillows, even XL stuffed animals – in their place!

I used Mainstay squishy pillows for the eye balls but any round pillow will work.

I cut felt for the eye balls and teeth. Just rub it to create a bit of static electricity and it should stick!
