I live in a house full of boys!
What do most boys love?
Cars, trucks, balls, sports, trains, planes, video games, bugs, animals
and don't you forget
DINOSAURS!!!
Elijah is a nature freak ~ all things science and nature = his loves!
He loves to watch National Geographic and Animal Planet!
I know you Non-TV watching parents are shutting up right about now because at least those are educational channels! Mmm...hmmm....
What have they been advertising non-stop for months?
Walking with the Dinosaurs Live!
at the new BOK Center here in Tulsa
This means?
I've been asked 5 billion, 651 million, 500 thousand times if he could go Walking with the Dinosaurs. I planned to take him the entire time but I did not want to commit in case something came up and I did not want to disappoint him by backing out! If I commit to something with the boys, then I follow through! The tickets were expensive and finally Saturday around 11pm I go online to buy tickets for Sunday's show ~ the LAST one here! I did not tell him until about 11:30am Sunday so he wouldn't ask me every 5 seconds if it was time to go!
It was a date ~ JUST me and my baby!
I don't claim favorites but Elijah and I have a very special bond and I couldn't wait for Elijah and Mommy time!
IT WAS AMAZING!
HOW they made those dinosaurs just boggles my mind?
So lifelike!
So so so HUGE!
So loud!
I can't believe how in AWE I was at how well BBC did with this production!
If it comes anywhere even near you, then you need to take your kids! Elijah is 7 and he loved it. I think Isaiah will be ready in a year or even two. I am sure he might have liked it now at age 3 BUT he would have been ready to leave at intermission. It is awesome, amazing, educational and probably too long, serious and loud for kids under at least 5 BUT every child is different! Good pictures were few and well....okay I never really got GOOD pics because they didn't allow flash photography and BOY did they have "flash photography" police on hand. Those little aisle monitors were running around like crazy telling people to turn off their camera flash.
HE LOVED IT!
Momma and baby Branchiosaurus
Stegosaurus
THEN
dodododo dodododo
{{insert scary music}}
the most famous and recognizable dinosaur of all
the T-REX
DUN DUN DUN
{{MORE scary music}}
I know, I know the pics just don't do this show justice but I did happen to take many illegal videos also and happened to download one here on blogger for your viewing pleasure:
Shhhh.....don't tell!
Take your kids if it comes near you!
Since my boys, especially Elijah, love dinosaurs and we never turn down a chance for new books, I decided to go ahead with this post. They asked if my boys like dinosaurs ~ HA! Do they like them? NO! They are obsessed with them! There are about 100 lying around for the dogs to chew and for me to step on in the middle of the night. We own about 50 books JUST about dinosaurs. We went to see Walking with the Dinosaurs! They own dinosaur t-shirts, DVDs, underwear.......need I say more! I also feel very strongly about reading to my boys and Momdot is having a Dinosaur book giveaway so go take a look!
