Humor: Signs that your young child is obsessed with dinosaurs
Article Toolsby Summer Minor
My oldest son is obsessed with dinosaurs. Here's the tell-tale signs:
He knows the name of every dinosaur there is. Not only the names but he know what they ate, where they lived, and how big they grew.
Seventy-five percent of his wardrobe has dinosaurs on it. He refuses to sleep in any jammies that lack dinosaurs of some kind, and getting him dressed in any clothes that do not have dinosaurs results in a complete meltdown.
We have to watch the BBC film Walking With Dinosaurs at least once a day.
He crawls around growling and pretending to be a Tyrannosaurus Rex and makes me and his little brother be smaller dinosaurs that he can eat.
He learned to count by counting his toy dinosaurs.
He has at least ten books about dinosaurs, five of which are reference books about various dinosaurs. And every night before bed we have to read at least two of the books.
