Dinosaurs and fossils
Dinosaurs have long been the subject of fascination for children. Through stories and activities, this program will introduce to children the ways in which palaeontologists have come to understand dinosaurs through finding and studying fossils. Written specially for early learners.
What do you need to participate?
