Are your kids fans
of dinosaurs? Most kids are I know my daughter just adores reading about and
visiting as many dinosaur exhibits we can. If your child is a fan of diansaurs
they are going to love the new Dino Dan 4 pack dvd from NCircle Entertainment.
Have you ever wondered why kids are so
enthralled with dinosaurs? R O A R !
As any proud parent
will attest to, kids as young as TWO years of age have been able to correctly
identify a tyrannosaurus!
And older kids will organize backyard digs for dinosaur bones and beg to visit dinosaur exhibits at local natural history museums.
So what is behind kids’ fascination with
dinosaurs?
Freelance writer and book author Bob Strauss pondered this
question for About.com and came up with some pretty solid
explanations!!
· For starters, he believes
kids like dinosaurs because the huge, dangerous creatures are extinct, so kids
know that dinosaurs are not a threat.
· He also believe that
dinosaurs are also role models for kids because dinosaurs are big and nobody
tells them what to do – the exact opposite of a kid, who is small and is always
being told how to behave.
· Kids also like the size and
scope of dinosaur skeletons, definitely a cool factor!
· And they also like the
possibility that, like Matt Larson, a paleontologist for the Black Hills Institute
of Geologic Research, they too might be able to someday discover dinosaur
fossils – as he did just this summer in the plains of northeast Wyoming! It’s time for you and your kids to join in the prehistoric
fun with Dino Dan, the
award-winning live-action, CGI adventure series airing nightly on Nick Junior at 5p.m.
(ET), which stars 18 true-to-life, photo-real dinosaurs alongside Jason Spevack
(Fever Pitch; Sunshine Cleaning) as Dan “Dino Dan” Henderson. Available on DVD from NCircleEntertainment, Dino Dan,
was created by Sinking Ship Entertainment.
Dino Dan
is an ordinary 10-year old boy with an extraordinary obsession: he eats, sleeps
and breathes dinosaurs. A typical day for Dan isn’t complete unless he’s racing
a T-Rex on his school track, finding a Pterodactylus in his attic or getting a
baby Brachiosaurus back to its mom. But kids don’t need to imagine dinosaurs
because in Dino Dan,
dinosaurs lurk around every corner, they're behind every mystery, they fuel
every adventure, and they help answer questions, too!
Dino Dan also
specializes in getting his contrasting crew of classmates and teachers engaged
in his larger-than-life adventures. Not only are Dino Dan's adventures incredibly fun, they're also incredibly
educational, as each episode centers around a common kid issue like having to
play with your little brother, going to the dentist, or trying to win at hide
'n' seek. These, naturally, lead Dan to wonder how the dinosaurs would act in a
similar situation.
As Dino Dan
comes up with a dino question or experiment to test his theories, he’s also
teaching kids about science. If his first theory proves false, Dan comes up
with a partial answer or discovers new information to help him resolve the
question. Then Dan discovers a new way of tackling the experiment and the
problem is resolved. And since the dinos in Dino Dan don't speak, high-five, or use deductive reasoning,
Dan and his pals work with the dinos' instincts as part of their scientific
method for proving theories. Dino Dan
