More than 100 life-size dinosaurs stand guard in sprawling park with indoor museum, gift shop & chances to discover real fossils

Scientists now believe that dinosaurs were covered in feathers, most likely after being dunked in hot tar pits by law-enforcing mammoths. Travel back to colonial Pangaea with today’s Groupon to Dinosaur World in Glen Rose. Choose between the following options:

  • For $4, you get one admission for a child age 3–12 (a $9.75 value).
  • For $6, you get one admission for an adult age 13 and older (up to a $12.75 value).<p>

With an outdoor museum that evokes the ancient beasts’ natural habitat, Dinosaur World transports kids and adults to a prehistoric kingdom ruled by more than 100 life-size dinosaur statues. Families of triceratops, boy bands of spike-tailed stegosaurs, and herds of brachiosaurs reside among the grasses and trees at the side of the park’s pathways. Made from fiberglass, steel, and concrete, the statues measure up to 80 feet in length and reflect the latest scientific discoveries in colorful, lifelike detail. Guests can venture to the fossil dig site and sift through sand to uncover authentic fossils such as shark’s teeth, trilobites, and ammonites (free for children ages 3–12; $2 for adults and children younger than 3). After unearthing up to three fossils, paleontologists can take their prizes home and re-bury them for millions more years deep in the living-room sofa. Elsewhere, the indoor museum displays everything from dinosaur eggs to velociraptor claws, and the gift shop stocks dinosaur-related books and fossils.

Because it may take up to four geological epochs to tour the entire Dinosaur World park, a shaded picnic area encourages guests to bring lunches. As with children under 3 years old, friendly pets may enter the park for free, as long as they remain on their leashes at all times and resist chewing on the tyrannosaur’s toe bones.

It was a great experience for my kids because they were really young, the museum was the best part because they had robot dinasours. The outdoor area is a littke boring, i think they need more stuff to make it more realistic.

I took my 3 yr old son and 2 9yr nephews. We had a fantastic time. The gift shop is nice and big with very competitive prices. I left feeling we paid a good fair price for souvenirs. The path was nice too. I would go and pay full price again.

Bring sandals for the kids so they can get in and out of the digging area so you don't have to put socks and shoes back on over and over again. Also, bring drinks and sunscreen.
