On Wednesday we had a special visitor to our Early Learning and Childcare Class! Kevin, the DinoMan came to see us and he brought his friends with him &#8211; two dinosaurs! One of them was a Triceratops named Tracy and another one, Gary, was a T-Rex. We found out that Tracy likes to eat plants and trees and T-Rex likes to eat other animals and bones! We even got a chance to have a little cuddle with the dinosaurs, they were super friendly!<\/p>\n<p>But that wasn&#8217;t all! Kevin also brought Fluffy the snake! We learned that Fluffy uses his sense of smell to follow directions and to make sure he&#8217;s got his dinner ready! Kevin invited us to give Fluffy a little gentle pat, too!<\/p>\n<p>B: &#8220;He feels cold!&#8221;<br \/>\nC: &#8220;I&#8217;ve never touched a snake before!&#8221;<br \/>\nJ: &#8220;His skin feels hard!&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Kevin told us a story about digging for dinosaurs bones in America &#8211; he even brought one with him! WOW, it was ginormous! He also brought a dinosaur egg for us to see &#8211; it was very big and heavy. Kevin was so super kind and he let us dig in the sand for more bones and eggs to find!<\/p>\n<p>A: &#8220;The bones were in the desert.&#8221;<br \/>\nL: &#8220;This bone is so old, I think it&#8217;s a million years old!&#8221;<br \/>\nB: &#8220;When I grow up, I&#8217;m going to dig for dinosaurs bones, too.&#8221;<br \/>\nM: &#8220;Are Tracy and Gary real dinosaurs?&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>We would like to thank the DinoMan for such a fantastic experience &#8211; we loved meeting Tracy, Gary and Fluffy! We hope to see you back soon!<\/p>\n\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The boys and girls have been enjoying the story about Harry and his bucketful of dinosaurs &#8211; we have been learning different names of dinosaurs, where they came from and what they like to eat!
