When Dinosaurs Alive! came to Kings Island (and Cedar Point) I thought it was alright. The kids loved it, and some of the dinosaurs were interactive (ie, you could put buttons to make them move). My two favorite things were:
1)Most of the paths were shaded, which made for a nice walk on a HOT July day and
2)The paths were outside the typical border of the parks, so you got to see some behind the scenes views not usually visible!
We also visited Dinosaur's Alive at Kings Island and Cedar Point because my kids were at the perfect age. The Columbus Zoo has a boat ride that had a dinosaur overlay around that time too that my kids loved.
Great article. Yes, there is something magical about the Dino-themed attractions. It just triggers the imaginations for both kids and adults alike. Always exciting to see the next generation of T-Rex and Bronto's! It is going to be Dino-myte!

Kids just go bonkers over dinosaurs. It’s a great non-IP theme for parks and attractions.

Yet more anecdotal evidence that kids and dinos are a perfect match.

Thanks for the kind words!
