Dinosaur Museum

Scenes from the Dinosaur Museum at Thanksgiving Point:

"Da-dum....da-dum....da-dum da-dum da-dum..."

Katie escavating dinosaur bones - very "Jurassic Park"

Funny McKenna face

Katie and a dinosaur

She's not sure what to think about this one without glass infront of it...
"Is that dinosaur going to eat me?"

The girls and the Veloceraptor

Katie under the Supersaurus

Katie at the erosion table. Very cool - the kids can create rivers, walls, and mountains and watch the river erode the sand and cover dinosaurs. That's how fossils are made...?

We had a blast at the museum. This will definitely be more and more of a hit every year as the girls understand more. All Katie knew about dinosaurs previous to this museum trip is that Sharp Tooth is very scary and dinosaurs "roar!" I'm not sure that she made the connection that the skeletons used to be dinosaurs...oh well, it still was a great trip and a fun hands-on day.
