About Dinosaur Discovery Site
Step back millions of years at the Dinosaur Discovery Site, where kids and families can explore an authentic slice of prehistoric life. Nestled in St. George, Utah, this site offers an engaging and educational experience perfect for dino enthusiasts of all ages. Here, you’ll find a treasure trove of dinosaur tracks, showcasing the incredible history of the Early Jurassic period. These aren’t just any tracks; they are incredibly well-preserved prints that tell stories of the mighty creatures that once roamed the Earth.
Children and adults alike will be amazed at the sheer variety of tracks on display, including those of carnivorous dinosaurs. The site even boasts the largest collection of dinosaur swim tracks, offering a unique glimpse into the lives of these ancient giants. The sandstone preserving these tracks has frozen them in time, allowing us to see intricate details and imagine the movements of these colossal creatures.
For those curious about how dinosaurs got their names or what dinosaur eggs looked like, the museum has fascinating exhibits and reproductions to explore. But the adventure doesn’t stop there! Kids can dive into the interactive children’s area, where they can become little archaeologists, making dinosaur stencils, playing with dino toys, and solving puzzles. Outside, they can continue their exploration by discovering 'bones' and learning the tools of the trade.
Whether your child dreams of being a paleontologist or just loves dinosaurs, the Dinosaur Discovery Site provides a fun and enriching experience that will spark their imagination and curiosity. So, grab your archaeology hats and prepare for a prehistoric adventure that will delight the entire family!
