Everybody Walk The Dinosaur at Bayfront Convention Center

Dinosaurs and dragons all day at the Bayfront Convention Center

Saturday, Apr. 7

It's about time to take a nostalgic trip way back — like, so way back it's primordial — by way of the Tom Ridge Environmental Center's Time Lab.

Discover the Dinosaurs: Time Trek runs its course of history on Saturday, April 7 and Sunday, April 8 at the Bayfront Convention Center, inviting young folks, old folks, and the rest of us along for a glimpse of the likes of mega, prehistoric dinosaurs — and even some dragons that are the stuff of mythical magical inspiration in different cultures around the world.

There's plenty of hands-on stuff, too: Dinosaur poop, design-a-dino activities, a cool race-through-time labyrinth, trivia challenges, movies — you know, dinosaurs (and dragons) all day. Learning, in a fun way.

— Ryan Smith

April 7, 9 a.m. to 7 p.m.; April 8, 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. // Bayfront Convention Center // discoverthedinosaurs.com
