Get ready for a journey back in time with Dinosaurs: Fossils Exposed! Visitors can explore these prehistoric giants through interactive displays and hands-on activities that bring ancient creatures to life. Examine life-size skeletal molds, touch authentic fossil replicas, and uncover bones in our paleontology dig pit. Learn what made these amazing animals unique, from massive T-Rex skulls to impressive Apatosaurus femurs. Take on challenges like identifying dinosaur tracks, matching species to their time periods, and distinguishing between dinosaurs and other prehistoric creatures. Kids can experience the thrill of discovery at our fossil dig box, explore a prehistoric landscape, and use real paleontology tools just like scientists.
