Who loves Dinosaur Train??? We do, we do! Both my kids love it, and I love it’s educational component. It is edu-tainment, lol….I also like it because it has some age-appropriate social messages. And on a personal note, as you know, my daughter Kamikaze is adopted, just like Buddy- and the first day we met her was on a Halloween- and we celebrate it every year, lol. So how happy am I to tell you that Dinosaur Train has some super fun Halloween adventures and costumes? Very!

DINOSAUR TRAIN ON PBS

Starting October 25, PBS KIDS will offer a spooktacular lineup of Halloween-themed episodes, including DINOSAUR TRAIN –”Night Train” in which Dad, Buddy and Tiny take a special ride on the Dinosaur Train at night, learning about animals that are active after dark, culminating at the Big Pond for a nature walk under the full moon. Educational component: Many animals are most active at night, usually as a means to avoid detection by predators or to aid in hunting (depending on the animal). This lifestyle may have applied to some dinosaurs as well, including Troodon.

There’s also a great music video for the Halloween episode at the following link: http://www.youtube.com/HensonCompany
