During a visit to the T Rex Museum Gift Shop & Activity Center kids get an education in science, history, and art while having so much fun they don’t even realize they are learning.
It is our philosophy of “Edutainment” that insures fun as the primary method of teaching. We believe that if a child is having fun you can’t stop him or her from learning. Play is the primary mode of education for nearly all of the animal kingdom as well as nearly every successful civilization up to now.
This is no boring museum or dull gift shop with plastic toys. The T Rex Museum Gift & Activity Center has fossils, replicas, science, art, astronomy, and hands on exhibits that take you through 13.7 billion years of history including 570 Million years of interesting prehistoric life! And the largest selection of dinosaur related gifts, books, and such in America.
Every child has the chance to dig up real fossils, gems, minerals, semi-precious stones, arrowheads, and even real gold in our Dig Pit or Fossil Sluice. And they get to keep what they find! There is a list of activities below. You choose what is age appropriate from a large menu.
We believe that through the fun they have here, today's children will be inspired to become tomorrow's explorers. Here you can touch 6 different types of dinosaur poop, hold items that were in the stomach of a living dinosaur, and even touch dinosaur skin. How about observing the bones of a baby unhatched embryonic Sauropod?
Would that make your child excited? Do you think this experience will help him want to learn? Albert Einstein said it best, "Imagination is more important than knowledge." We sell fun, you get the knowledge for free.
