Join the Wyoming State Museum on July 15, for the third annual Dino Day. A high-energy, educational event for kids and kids-at-heart, Dino Day is an opportunity for dino enthusiasts to meet experts, learn, play, and discover Wyoming’s prehistoric past.
From 10 a.m. until 2 p.m. on Saturday, July 15, the State Museum and its grounds will be transformed into a dino-themed wonderland. Kids can meet fossil experts from the WU Geological Museum and Fossil Butte National Monument. A “Field of Dinos” with poles reaching toward the sky will show just how big (and small) some of the most famous dinosaurs were. Kids can also crawl through a “Tunnel Through Time,” play “Tricera-toss,” run through an obstacle course, smile for the photo booth, and more.
Dino Day is for all ages and will feature crafts, games, and activities that bring attendees closer to the museum’s paleontological collections. The Museum’s Curator of Education will be providing hourly education talks and the Laramie County Library will contribute lively story times each hour as well.
