Gift shop

We have one gift shop director that handles the merchandise for all three locations. This is a big and fun job becuase two of our locaitons have giftshops of over 5,000 square feet. And the smaller Florida location will be getting a bigger giftshop hopefully within the year.

Here's the good news - she's going on a trip next week to buy lots of cool new items for the giftshop. I'll keep you posted on what's coming.

Fall break

Our Kentucky location is rocking with fall breakers! Thank you all for visiting. I know most Texas and Florida schools don't get fall break. But, we love seeing all of you! We'd love for you to make us a stop on your fall break.

Pterodactyl

Pterodactyl name means "winged fingers". They were flying reptiles ranging from a few inches to over 40 feet. They had large brains and good eyes. There were lightly build with hollow bones, long skulls and smaller bodies. they had bristle like teeth or no teeth and ate fish, insects and scavenged dead animals. Their wings were covered with a leathery membrane that was thin but tough.

You'll find several pterodactyls at Dinosaur World.

Trick or treat!

I carved a pumpkin last night and that made me think about Halloween. Did you know that all kids ages 3 to 12 will receive FREE ADMISSION to Dinosaur World on Halloween Day if they are in costume? What a fun way to celebrate!

Dog Month

October is Dog Month at Dinosaur World! Bring your dog and get $2 off admission! Friendly pets on leash are always welcome, but we're really celebrating this in October! Our Kentucky location has even more dog specials due to a partnership with BRAWA (Barren River Animal Welfare Association - http://www.glasgowanimalshelter.org/). If you adopt a dog in October and bring us the papers, we'll give you a free family pass for up to 4 people. Bring in donations for the shelter and we'll give you a free gift! And, weekends in October we'll have adoptable animals visiting. (Just call for specific times)
