Dinosaurs Invade Dayton

February 8, 2018 By Dayton Most Metro

It’s a Dinosaur Adventure for the whole family with over 80 life size dinosaur’s taking up residence at the  Dayton Convention Center as Jurassic Quest returns to the Miami Valley  this weekend. The main dinosaur exhibit features ultra-realistic, life-size animatronic dinosaurs. Visitors can interact with these huge creatures, learn about them and even ride a few. It features realistic scenes, enormous dinosaurs, cute baby dinosaurs and lots of fun activities for kids of all ages. There are huge T-Rex and Triceratops fossil digs where young paleontologists can uncover long hidden dinosaurs bones, the “Dino Bounce” area with several, towering, dinosaur theme inflatable mazes, face painting, Dino crafts and much more!

 

 

In collaboration with leading paleontologists, from the very small, to the gigantic, skyscraping dinosaurs each one was painstakingly replicated in every detail. Whether their prehistoric counterpart had skin that was scaly, had feathers or fur, Jurassic Quest has spared no expense in bringing this realism to life.

The interactive baby dinosaurs are always a big hit.  The Baby Dinosaurs love to see and play with our guests. They’ve been known to grab baseball caps right off of unsuspecting children’s heads, nibble at their shirts and even pose for pictures.

Turns out, even when they grow up a little, they still love the attention. Jurassic Quest has adolescent dinos that walk around and play with our guests. Just like when they were babies, they love to put smiles on families faces and with their bigger size, maybe startling them a little too. This is another dinosaur fan favorite that can only be seen at Jurassic Quest Events.

Once visitors have experienced the Dinosaur Exhibit, they’re not finished yet… There are many attractions and activities for all kinds of dinosaur fans. Guests can dig up fossils like a real paleontologist, they can ride on the back of a Huge 24ft TRex, or the spiky, Overgrown, Carnotaurus. There are countless dinosaur themed rides through out the event… Inflatable mazes, HUGE slides, and the multitrack Dino Bungee Pull. Jurassic Quest has a Dinosaur Petting zoo where little ones can pet dinosaurs that are more their size and take photos. do crafts with the kiddos, Dino Science stations, Visit the fossil area in our Dinosaur Museum and see real dinosaur fossils dating back over 60 million years.
