The Hollywood Times had the opportunity to visit this Dino experience with our four year old grandson and he had a blast.
Once through the door you will enter the welcome room to purchase your tickets or check in if you bought your tickets online. There is a VIP package you can purchase and you will be given a VIP lanyard to wear and keep as a souvenir.
The first thing he noticed was the dino egg and we saw a great photo opp.
There is a cool opening to enter into the world of prehistoric creatures.
There are way cool Dinos to see with signage containing their name and some info about them.
After seeing several Dinosaurs in their native habitats you enter through a door and come into this large room with four walls of underwater prehistoric creatures.
After that really cool experience, you go through another door to take you to the kids experience area where they can dig for dinosaur bones, and even ride a couple of dinosaurs. There are tables there to use to color a dinosaur that you then put in a projector and actually see it on the TV screen which it totally awesome. So my grandson Max, his Mom and Dad colored a page and saw it come to live.
The next area we visited was the virtual realty room, which was part of our VIP experience.
After all the fun experiences the last stop is the Dino Alive Experience store with all types of dinosaur toys, posters, books and collectibles. We were given a poster of choice and a magnet with our VIP badges.
We all had a great time experiencing all the animated dinosaurs, fun activities and especially enjoying my grandson, standing so still to watch each dinosaur, the sea creatures exhibit, coloring a dinosaur and then watch his drawing come to life on the TV, riding a dinosaur and trying out for the first time the Virtual reality. Then to finally see him choose a fun toy to take home. This is great event to bring the entire family. All the kids, grandkids, mom and dad and the grandparents too! So pack everyone up and head to the city of Montebello off the 60 freeway, West of the 605 and see it for yourself. Ticket information is BELOW.
