Enjoy scary dinos, cuddly dinos, serious adventure and some fantastic learning experiences!

Some kids really get into dinosaurs in a BIG way! And there are so many fascinating facts to learn - as well as some truly exotic words... diplodocus, T-rex, Jurassic, paleontology... which many children just love to memorize and show off to their friends and family!

There's science, history - and a whole lot of mystery still surrounding those dinos, which means we can let our imaginations run riot and play a wide range of dinosaur games online for different ages and stages.

Online dinosaur games for kids

Imagine that dinosaurs have reappeared, and threaten the Earth as we know it! Time for the Xtractaurs to save the day - dino figures from which your kids "extract" DNA, to create super dinos that will defeat those nasty Megavores!

You'll have to get your child an Xtractaurs starter kit first of all, which includes a figure, an "extraction gun", and a CD - see how it works:

Why not check out the Xtractaurs Secret Lab to check out how to sign into the site even if you haven't got the starter kit - as well as info about submitting hybrids your child creates to the Lab, giving you the chance of winning more figures.

Visit the Dinosphere!
The Dinosphere is part of the Children's Museum of Indianopolis. Kids can play Match and Hatch - oh, I do love the clever names of all these online dinosaur games! - Find the Herd, and a fabulous activity called Make a Dino Scene, which children can print out when they've finished.

PBS Dinosaur Train
Some lovely online dinosaur games for young kids here.

In Pteranodon Fishing, kids catch fish from the big pond with some well timed pointing and clicking - and Hungry Hungry Herbivore simply requires your child to move the mouse to direct your hungry dino down a path, allowing him to chomp twelve tasty clumps of foliage to finish the game!

Kids can also enjoy the Field Guide activities, printables, and watching the videos about the Dinosaur Train.

Barney
Boy oh boy! We just can't write a page about kids' dinosaur games without mentioning good ol' Barney! And at the Barney site you'll find plenty of games, videos, music and good quality printables of Barney's friends.

Do check out the parents' section too, where they feature latest additions. Looking at the US site, there are resources such as Barney's fire safety tips that you can print out, or a print-and-color recipe card for sugar cookies!
