Dino Dana

Growing up in the 1970's I was in love in dinosaurs. I think this is typical for children aged 2 and up. This show is the first show that my 2 yo daughter and 4 yo son can't get enough of. They have watched all of Season 1 & 2 at least 5 times or more. PLEASE, Amazon video renew this show for season 3 and more. this is the first show that brings realistic science of dinosaurs into a setting that young children can understand and admire. very important show if you want you children to appreciate STEM! Marc W. - Dad of 4 children and lover of Science.

I have a 5 year old dinosaur fanatic. He's already saying he's going to be a paleontologist. This show gives him inspiration and keeps him interested. I love that it's educational as well as entertaining. The only thing depending on how you look at it is Dana is quite adventurous which can be good and bad. I've had quite a few messes to clean up after my son is finished "exploring".

I recommend this show to all the mum's I know. All three of my children will watch it happily (5, 3 and 1) and I don't hate it either - in fact, I secretly love it!

The storylines are sweet and endearing, the main character is very engaging and I like the way that they focus on just a couple of dinosaurs at once. My sons talk about Dinosuchus and Plesiosaurs and know that they swim. Brilliant!

More like this please Amazon.

As any caretakers of a dino-manic child knows, finding age appropriate movies or shows about their favorite prehistoric giants can be a tricky thing; the reason being that it's hard to find that sweet spot between realism and lack of violence. But for all intents and purposes, Dino Dana represents a sweet spot between these two ideals. The story focuses on a young girl names Dana who is on a mission to learn more about dinosaurs through simple to understand field studies of her imaginary dino friends (portrayed amply with CGI). However, it would be incorrect in saying that Dino Dana is exclusively a show that teaches children about dinosaurs. Throughout the first season I was also happy to find life lessons scattered about such as waiting your turn, helping friends and generally all things related to being a good samaritan and/or decent person. For all these reasons and more, I'd recommend Dino Dana to any parent looking for a new show for their child.

My daughter loves this show. Don't pay attention to the other reviewers saying it's horrible. It is very educational and she has learned so much about dinos from this show.
