Dino World Part 2

Here are a few more pictures from Dinosaur World. It was really fun to see the dinosaurs in the "natural setting", like the triceratops with their babies and the brachiosaurs in the field.

This picture of Jack mugging me shows how tall some of the dinos were.

Along with the real life dinosaurs all the kids got to dig for real fossils. They got to sift through the sand for 15 minutes and fill up a cup and pick out their favorite 3 fossils. Nora found some cool ammonites and Jackson settled on some shark teeth.

Nora has gotten so interested in fossils from her dig and Dinosaur Train talking about them she has been looking for fossils in our back yard. She started looking at rocks around the yard that I've been ignoring for 7 years and found some real fossils of sea shells. We had a lot of fun trying to match them up and put them together.


As you leave Dino World of course there is a huge gift shop so we set each kid a limit and had them pick out what they wanted. This lead to a whole other dino world on the beds of our hotel room.
