Uncle Milton's Dino Xcavator ... think Operation meets Jurassic Park

Remember that kid from Jurassic Park who knew everything about Dinosaurs to the annoyance of the expert brought along to approve the park? Chances are, he probably would’ve gotten the Dino Xcavator for Christmas.

Coming with excavation tools, Junior Paleontologists compete by drawing cards and excavating the buried fossils of a Tyrannosaurus Rex. Think of it as Operation for dinosaurs. Which means you need to be very careful removing the bones. Don’t touch the sides of the pit or the T-Rex will roar!

Like the classic Operation, don't touch the Dino's side walls or you lose a turn.

Kids will learn not only techniques for excavating fossilized dinosaur bones, but also how these “thunder chickens” are put together.

Ages 5 and up. Powered by a pair of AA batteries.

Cost is $17 at Amazon.
