North Region - Thunder Bay - Boreal Museum Diggin Dinosaur Program

Region: This event is exclusive to families in the Thunder Bay area.

Join Autism Ontario at The Boreal Museum for a Diggin Dinosaur Program.

This program is all about studying our ancient ancestors. We will talk about the evolution of life, ancient ecosystems, and especially dinosaurs! Fossil specimens and some replicas will be brought in, as well as some games about dinosaurs. 

Each participant will also take home their own Dinosaur Excavation and “I Dig Fossils” kit.
