Field Trip to the Dinosaur Museum


We have been reading Dinotopia with the Girls and thought it would be fun to take Kendi to the Dinosaur Museum in St. George.  I've always wanted to stop by there, but wanted to be able to spend some time.  I think they say they have the largest collection of dinosaur tracks at this museum and they find new discoveries every week right at the sight of the museum.



Kendi was super excited.  She especially loved seeing the few bones they had. She said she wants to be an archaeologist.

We spent over an hour in the museum and it was well worth the little trip.
Can you see the track? They actually stick out of the mud.  After the dinosaurs ran through it, their tracks were filled in with the mud that hardened and left a "cast" of their feet.  Cool, huh?
