Boil a generous amount of water in a large pot. Add a pinch of salt to the boiling water. Carefully add the dinosaur pasta to the pot. Stir occasionally to prevent sticking. Cook according to package directions until al dente, which means it is tender but still has a slight bite. Drain the pasta well. You can then serve it plain, toss it with butter and a sprinkle of Parmesan cheese, or mix it with your child's favorite pasta sauce.
