Dinosaur Day

Celebrate Dinosaur Day at the Children’s Museum of South Dakota. Visit our lifesize Mama T. Rex and her son, Max!  Dig like a paleontologist in our Dino Dig exhibit!  Learn about fossils!

Stay tuned for the schedule of events!

It will be a great day to celebrate all sorts of fun fossil and dinosaur facts such as:

• The famous Sue the t. rex was unearthed in western South Dakota near the town of Faith.
• A triceratops called Shady was unearthed in 2019 in the Badlands of South Dakota by a group of college students!
• Modern birds are a kind of dinosaur! Check out the “feathers” on our very own baby T. rex Max on our outdoor prairie.
• We will even have some dinosaur jokes! Here’s one …. Q: What do you get if you cross a dinosaur with a pig? A: Jurassic Pork!

Dinosaur Day will be so much fun. We can’t wait for you to celebrate with us!
