And I mean the WAY past.
Millions of years past.
After a bit of trepidation regarding his two-year-old sensibilities, my husband and I took our son to his first “live show”. Harry went “Walking with the Dinosaurs” at Alltel Arena this past Sunday afternoon.
We were a little worried that life-sized dinosaurs roaring with life-sized sound effects would be a bit much for a toddler to handle.

The answer would be, ah, NO!
Harry LOVED it. He was in little boy heaven, transfixed for the entire two hours (including intermission).Â
He was a little too young to understand the narration, which was a excellent balance between fact and public palatability. But the spectacle he understood perfectly. It was big. It was loud. It was colorful. It was DINOSAURS! From the perspective of a little boy – what wasn’t to love?

If he likes Dinosaurs…Hobby Lobby (in West Little Rock) just got in some stuff-it-yourself dinosaurs. They’re SO cute! $14.99 There’s a T-Rex, Stegosaurus, and a Brontosaurus. The box says they have a Triceratops and a Pteranadon, but I didn’t see either of them when we were putting them on the topcap today.
But man…that would have been awesome!
