In addition to exploring the massive display, ride a baby dinosaur, or for the more courageous types, a 12-foot animatronic Tyrannosaurus rex or triceratops.
Meet Tracey, a friendly T-rex who will walk around the exhibit once every three hours to greet guests and play with children.
There will be a fossil dig where aspiring paleontologists can dig up bones, a virtual reality zone, Jurassic-themed bounce area with inflatable bounce houses and a jungle wall to scale.
Visitors can also test their skills at basketball and darts, have their face painted and more.
