Sensory-Friendly Dinosaur Encounters

Get close to a living, breathing dinosaur!

Fun, educational, and interactive, Dinosaur Encounters features NHM’s life-size dinosaur puppets. Each presenter focuses on a different topic, including theories on dinosaur behavior, extinction, adaptation, and the relationship between birds and dinosaurs. Please note these are not small hand puppets. The museum’s puppets are very large, realistic interpretations of wild animals. Please prepare small children accordingly. Dinosaur Encounters is family friendly, and each presentation is about 20 minutes long.

Dinosaur Encounters takes place at the North American Mammal Hall, Level 2.
