There is a lot to do and learn with Dinosaurs under the X-Ray's richly-varied play, activities that kids find fun and enthralling in equal measure. First, there are three Mesozoic scenarios to put together, one each for the Triassic, Jurassic, and Cretaceous periods. And while all three jigsaw-puzzle-like scenes are simple to assemble, additional discoveries are revealed by shining the magical UV torch on the images contained therein. What looked to be the exterior of a volcano now reveals previously hidden visual details as well as nomenclature that labels now-visible elements such as the crater, conduit, and magma chamber. Similarly, shining the UV light on the shaped dinosaurs that sit atop the scenes has the x-ray-vision effect of displaying their skeletons in detail. Dinosaur game cards help youngsters learn and challenge one another with key facts about 40 of the best-known dinosaurs, while the set's 20 mission cards spur kids to familiarize themselves with a host of additional details about these famously fascinating creatures!
