I have a 3 year old and my 3 year old niece went. They loved it! The life size dinos were amazing more

Just to warn you if you don't already know. This is an outside mueseum. I made the mistake of not knowing before I took my kids there. We went during the hot days of summer here and I thought they would at least have 1 area that is air conditioned. There are many different types of dinosaurs you can learn about here. The kids really like to run around and look at all the models that they have. I suggest going oin a cool day. more

If you've ever driven I-4 east, you've seen the big orange Tyrannosaurus Rex smiling from the roadside, and a single sign that says 'Dinosaur World.' You've always wanted to stop and go, but maybe you haven't made the time. Seriously, go. Your kids will love the dinosaurs and you'll love the shady boardwalk that leads you around and around the Dinosaur World park, where you can see over 40 giant sculptures of dinosaurs, painted creative colors. If your kids love technology and you're worried about their attention spans, worry no more. Kids love Dinosaur World in a surprising way. There are no animatronic dinosaurs, no air conditioned buildings, and only a single sand dig and one educational film. But you can easily spend a few hours there, and go home with an awesome Dinosaur World t-shirt. more
