Kids love dinosaurs. Getting to be a paleontologist for a day is such a memorable experience for them! We recently had the opportunity to check out the new Dino Dig at the Liberty Science Center (which just happens to overlook the beautiful New York City skyline!) and it was too much fun!

Want a chance to check it out too? Enter the giveaway at the bottom of this post for a 4 pack of tickets and your little ones can be paleontologists for the day too!

Go on a dino dig at the Liberty Science Center and become a paleontologist for the day. Discover fossils of various dinosaurs and learn through play.

Dino Dig at the Liberty Science Center

I’ll give you a quick run down of our takeaways from the Dino Dig:

  • My kids are 2, 4 and 6 and this was the perfect activity to keep all of them engaged
  • I’m a firm believer in hands-on, play based experiences as optimal for learning and development, and this was solidified at the Dino Dig
  • The employees at the Liberty Science Center took the time to discuss different ‘fossils’ and types of dinosaurs to the kids while they were digging
  • The entire center was hands-on and play-based (aside from just the Dino Dig) and was incredibly educational and fun
  • Plant-eating dinosaurs had beaks, meat-eating dinosaurs had sharp teeth, my kids can’t stop reminding me of this!

The Liberty Science Center provided us with the opportunity to do a little indoor fossil digging before entering the outdoor Dino Dig. This was so much fun, I know I was more than happy to help my little ones out!

    I asked my kids for bucket lists this summer And the only thing my teen daughter had on her list was Liberty Science Center! She never wants to go anywhere or do anything so this is a big deal. 🙂
