Time for a tasty geological treat! Grab some ingredients and make some fossil biscuits.

The dinosaurs lived many millions of years ago. Since then, many things have changed about our planet. The oceans and continents have shifted, ecosystems have changed and lots of species – including dinosaurs – have become extinct. Even the regular patterns of sunrise and sunset might have drifted.

From the time of dinosaurs to mysterious materials, this week’s quiz is a real brain bender. Time to test your knowledge!
