The Jurassic Age

I never try to make a statement all encompassing, or make something seem a certainty. So I will say the overwhelming majority of boys are fascinated by dinosaurs. I am not sure why that is. It may be the lizard aspect. It may be the ferocity and dangerousness. It may be imprinted on their DNA. Maybe it is all of the above. T Rex is always a popular choice. Stegosaurus and Triceratops are at the top of the list too. You watch. At some age, could be 2, could be 4, but whatever it is, there will be a dinosaur period in your son's life. The last 8 weeks Coco had brought a book home from the library having to do with dinosaurs. Caz had his library book period too. Let me tell you, most of them use the "new" dinosaur names that are supposed to be correct. They are tongue twisters and a half. These are the toughest books to read. Discovery Channel has some cool shows that are computer enhanced that are documentary-like, showing how some of the creatures may have looked and moved. These shows, liking Walking with Dinosaurs, are very well done. Fair warning though, these can get graphic at times. You do have to talk a lot about it while you are watching it. However, that should be the case with many of the show you watch together.
