We love this show not just because it features dinosaurs, but also because it teaches the scientific method. Not in a dull boring way, but through observing dinosaurs. Yes, we think that's cool. <br />
<br />
Here's the trailer for Season 1. Dan Henderson is a 10 year old kid who sees dinosaurs everywhere. And this kid has a great imagination, the dinosaurs are brilliantly colored!<br />

Dinosaur toys are timeless, kids have been fascinated with dinosaurs since they were first discovered. Our boys love dinosaurs and the toys available today are amazing. Their Dad still has some of his dinosaur toys from when he was a boy! This makes me want to keep hold of some of the boys dinosaur toys in case they have children they want to pass them on to.<br />
<br />
Since we've become such experts on dinosaur toys we thought we'd put together a site full of reviews and recommendations to help others choose the best dinosaur toys. Have fun.

We had great fun making this! <br />
<br />
I baked two chocolate sponge cakes which we cut into a volcano shape and poured melted chocolate over. Once the chocolate set we added red fondant lava. <br />
<br />
I made a T-Rex, Stegosaurus, Dimetrodon, Triceratops, Parasaurolophus and Pterodactyl from colored fondant. We had a very happy four year old!<br />

No, not that sort! We mean dinosaur costumes for kids (and adults) to dress up in for Halloween. <br />

His fourth birthday is coming up and we've been looking for ideas for another dinosaur themed cake. <br />
<br />
At the moment DS1 is asking for a Volcano cake with dinosaurs. We found a very cool one. <br />
<br />
Here's our page on how to <a href="http://www.squidoo.com/dinosaur-cake">Make a Dinosaur Cake</a>. We've found lots of brilliant ideas.

We had been talking about which dinosaurs were around and the same time as other dinosaurs and which dinosaurs came first and I realized I didn't know much! So I researched the dinosaur timeline, found lots of interesting facts and put together the <a href="http://www.squidoo.com/dinosaur-timeline">Dinosaur Timeline</a> page. <br />
<br />

It's amazing that someone can be so productive in so many different fields. It's his atheism advocacy that first brought him to my attention several years ago and I started watching and listening to anything with him in. <br />
<br />
I met Jonathan Miller once. I saw him queuing for the same flight as me. I was rather excited when I realized I had the seat next to him. Fascinating guy. I was rather star-struck!<br />
<br />
I recently watched Laurie Taylor's interview with Jonathan Miller and it inspired me to put together a guide to <a href="http://www.squidoo.com/lensmaster/new_workshop/jonathan-miller">Jonathan Miller</a>.

I started looking into this and got a bit carried away resulting in the following resource about <a href="http://www.squidoo.com/british-dinosaurs">British Dinosaurs</a>. I think I should be able to keep ahead of DS1's questions on this topic for a while.DinosaurEgghttp://www.blogger.com/profile/05225458871867443101noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4632810614235203419.post-26761082080292603882010-08-13T23:06:00.000-07:002010-08-13T23:07:57.771-07:00Dinosaur SongsThe boys both love dinosaurs and are starting to enjoy music. We had fun finding dinosaur songs to listen to.<br />
Johnny Cash's Dinosaur Song is my favourite. The Dinosaurs Song from Big Green Rabbit is superb and has an accompanying animation. <br />
