Took a field trip today to Dinosaur World. Myself the misses and our 4 children and our 2 nephews. It was a real blast! Very informative and unique. The dinos were all life size and the kids just loved it. The weather was the only thing that wasn't fun. It was 100°F + ! Tough day for an outdoor adventure. But the troop carried on with few complaints that weren't heat related. Overall the park staff were super friendly and very helpful. The park itself was well kempt and very clean. We arrived around 1130 am so the park had had many visitors before us and the grounds and restrooms were all spotless and very sanitary. One thing worth mentioning is the only bathrooms are located just before the trail. Not a deal breaker but worth noting if you have a weak bladder. We took our time and started with the museum which houses various fossils and the likes of paleontology. It was a good way to warm up so to speak. From there we hit the dino trail. I read aloud each placard in front of the dinos as to provide relevance and substantiation. I must have been a good reader, as several other groups would stick around and listen in as well with their children. One lady even went as far as to scold her children for bickering while I was reading. Much appreciated, you know who you are if you're reading this Mom😆 The trail took about 45min or so when reading. After the dino trail we did the gem "mining". This was definitely the kids favorite part. They loved finding the treasures of the rocks and immediately wanted to show off who had the most unique find. Turns out our middle boy was the only one who found any "fool's gold" in his gem collection, so by default he felt he won! Each box of mining material came with a place card that showed the various minerals which could be found . It was fun and informative. Great educational experience for all ages! I found the pricing to be in line with what I would have expected to pay for such an outing. All 8 of us got in for $120. This included a large bag of mining material for each child as well as a small bag of 3 fossils for each child( of which each contained a shark tooth so they were all super excited about). Great family outing if you're in the neighborhood. For us it was a day trip just to get out and break the monotony. (We live almost 2 hrs drive from there). Money and time well spent if you ask our family! Definitely would recommend if you've never been there and have children who like dinos. Here's to all the future paleontologists ! Go get em! Rarrrr!
