Traveling Dinos visit.

Mary Motley, Reading Specialist at Cool Springs Primary in King William, VA sharing ideas from their very successful Family Reading/Dinosaur Night!
A Complete and Interactive,
Dinosaur Museum Visit!
The Wonder, The Science, The Books and The Pure Magic of Dinosaurs await your KIDs in this Complete Museum STREAM Experience, and Fabulous In-House Field Trip. Plus, It's a Lot of Fun Too!
We'll transform your large classroom, library, stage or gym into a Pop-Up Museum that will wow, enchant, and inspire your kids!
An Adventure in Guided Stations:
The Fossil Experience Intro
Your Kids are welcomed to the museum by Mark and see Real Triceratops fossils, Duckbill Hadrosaur bone, Dinosaur Skin (cast), a Spinosaurus tooth, and more. Along with interesting facts, passionate stories, and awesome Dinosaur books that inspire. It's a wonderful kick-off to the visit!
The Guided Museum Tour
Tami and Mark share an amazing collection of Real Fossils along with Museum Quality Dinosaur Replicas.
The Allosaurus Encounter
In small groups your kids come face to face with Mighty Al, a full size Allosaurus cast replica skull, and they can put their hand in the gigantic footprint too!
Independant Explore Time
Explore the museum up close with magnifying glasses or solve fossil mysteries with the digital microscope.
Meet and Greet
with Perri, an amazing baby Duckbill hadrosaur puppet that your kids can pose for a group picture serves as an awesome finish to their museum visit! (As your group time allows.)
The Collection
An amazing 30 year and growing collection, your kids will love seeing a combination of Real Fossils along with Museum Quality Dinosaur Replicas up close.
Mark has carefully assembled a quality collection with acquisitions of high interest to your students. This exhibit can easily be placed for the day in a classroom, large stage, etc.
We add in Music, special lighting, and set design that combine to make this a memorable learning experience, and a WOW for your kids!
A Note: Often in museums you get to the see the cast replicas of the dinosuars and fossils, with the originals stored away. While still cool, nothing replaces the real thing. With Traveling Dinos you may see more real fossils than a visit to many museums combined! Plus there's always something new in this constantly growing collection as we curate exhibits, and strive to tell the story of these magnificent creatures. All to inspire your future scientists, paleontologists, artists, teachers, and dreamers!



Dinos and Books: A Reading Focus!
Mark's lifelong work with Children's books and reading continues with Traveling Dinos.
From the beginning, to the end, books are incorporated in a way seen in no other museum. As reference points, explanations, inspiration, and shear fabulousness, great books help the museum come to life for your kiddos!
Did you know every classic children's fiction/non fiction series features at least one dinosaur book?
From Magic Tree House, The Magic School Bus, The A to Z Mysteries, to The Boxcar Kids and beyond.
New Dino Fiction and Science Non- fiction is coming at a rate like we've seen with few other areas of interest.
Over and over we've seen hard to reach kids connect with something in the museum that captivates them, which opens the pathway for you to guide them in areas of interest.
One of the coolest things that happens regularly is when we see a kid sitting in the middle of the hubbub of the visit leafing through one of the displayed books, lost in the pages.
Magic does happen here!
After all, it's what we do!
You did know you were in the Magic Business right?
