First, Chance and I went through their traveling exhibit, a dinosaur maze. Chance had a good time winding his way through the maze at each juncture there was a question about dinosaurs, if you answered correctly the arrow pointed to the correct path if wrongly then you were led to a dead end. Amazingly Chance picked correctly nearly ever time. I don't know if he really knew all the answers or was just really lucky but he does read lots of Dino books and watch lots of shows about Dinos so it's possible he just knows the correct answers.
After the maze it was time for our tour, we must have been early because we were the only people on this hour's tour. We were allowed to go out to the dig site and actually sift through dirt ourselves. With the help of the guide we found some ancient tree bark and a bone . We aren't sure what kind of bone it is but the paleontologist confirmed it was in fact a bone probably from just after the last Ice Age.
After our tour we walked through the permanent exhibit which was a whole room set up to take you back in time to what it would have looked like in that exact spot between 4 and 7 million years ago. Chance had a really good time in both exhibits and as long as we were moving he enjoyed the tour, he's still too little to stay interested when the guide is standing still just talking but I really enjoyed that part too and since it was just us i got an opportunity to really talk to tge your guide so I didn't miss anything while Chance was being antsy.
