(Stony Brook, NY) Following the largely successful movie, “Walking With Dinosaurs” and back by popular demand, three fun-filled days of events for kids age 3 through 9 will be offered February 18, 19 and 20 at WMHO’s Educational & Cultural Center in the Stony Brook Village Center where they can sing, play games, hear stories, be crafty and learn at the same time.

Dinosaur Daze for Ages 3-5 takes place from 10 am to 11:30 am and Dinosaur Detectives for 6 to 9 year olds will be held from 1 pm to 3 pm on each of those days. A knowledgeable instructor will offer age appropriate activities each day and topics include prehistoric animals that appear on PBS’s Dinosaur Train, how to become a “Junior Paleontologist” and the different forms of life on the island of Madagascar. Kids will even get to create and take home a “fossil.” Parents are encouraged to stay and participate. Cost for Dinosaur Daze is $50 per child for all three days and Dinosaur Detectives is $65 per child for all three days. There is a 12 person minimum and 15 person maximum in order for classes to be held.
