Prehistoric Journey at the Denver Museum of Science and Nature

Denver

What better way to gain and expand curiosity about Earth’s rich history, and what our landscapes, animals, and seas were like long ago, then to see it up close at the Denver Museum of Science and Nature!

Children will be guided by Abbey on their walking tour of the Prehistoric Journey Exhibition, stopping in the book nook area to work on the Dinosaur Floor Puzzle. Here, kids will also enjoy a storytime with Abbey, either practicing reading aloud themselves or being read to. At the Sea Lily Reef diorama, they'll seek and find creatures that once inhabited our ancient sea floors; tactile exploration will take place at the Dinosaur Bone Bar; and then the group will take a short film-break to learn about the K-T boundary layer and asteroid collision that meant “lights out” for the Dinosaurs, and from which came the emergence of mammalian life.

Abbey will meet your child at the entrance to the museum, and the Experience will end in the same place for easy pick-up.

What Parents Are Saying

Abbey was wonderful! She kept my two four-year-olds entertained, engaged and learning for three hours while I worked from home! She brought so many activities and my girls are still talking about all things dinosaur!

Abbey was so engaging with our 3-year-old. She had so much fun the entire time and raved about her teacher all evening.

If you want to keep your kids super busy, entertained and educated all about Dinosaurs, this is for you! Lots of activities and facts along the way. Abbey was fabulous. She has a wonderful way of communicating with kids. What a delight!!

My son had a blast. Ms. Abbey made sure he was engaged and rolled with the punches as far as switching activities when he was ready. SJ wanted her to stay for longer and was sad when she left. She also made me feel included as far as roaring with them, helping him with his egg, doing the puzzle and playing with the dinosaur game with them. We will definitely do more experiences!
