"Dinosaur Revolution uses the power of its topic and kinesthetic engagement to spark the visitors’ interest in finding out more about the age of the dinosaurs – from dinosaur characteristics to the processes and principals of paleontology. The content was embedded in the experience and labels were written in a way that was accessible to a wide range of audience members."

Driven by questions and exploratory answers, Dinosaur Revolution challenges visitor knowledge, presents cutting-edge discoveries, and debunks popular myths.

Travel through time and get a dinosaur’s eye view! Experience what its like to crush the earth beneath your gigantic feet as you make tracks in the Triassic. Learn to fly as you glide through the Jurassic. Return to present day and earn your Jr. Paleontologist credentials, then engage in the most current dino-debates. Testify in T-Rex’s defense, save the natural history museum from an expensive fossil hoax, and scale a wall of mysteries as you climb through time.

Climb Through Time There’s more to dirt than meets the eye! Scale the soil stratification climbing wall and discover that time is captured in layers of dirt.

Make Tracks in the TriassicWhen it comes to dinosaur feet, the bigger the better! Jump into one of three types and make an impression. The tracks you make will be important clues later on in your adventure!

Mystery Fossil DigEli E. Roneus, owner of Con Man’s Coal Mine, claims he has

discovered a collection of fossils and has offered a museum the chance to buy them. The museum is sending you,

a recent graduate of the Jr. Paleontology Academy, to investigate. Your job: to examine the fossils,

determine if they are authentic and learn if the fossils should be purchased.
