I'm the mother of two boys, budding paleontologists, so we do a lot of dinosaur things. If you've never seen the BBC Production of Walking With Dinosaurs, you really should. It's a very impressive arena show of life-size dinosaurs roaming the floor with a narrator giving us insights into their lives. The website for the show isn't nearly as impressive as meeting a life-size "live" T-Rex face to face, but it's still impressive. They've done a spectacular job carrying the theme from live show to site.

In Meet the Dinosaurs you can hear each one roar, as you do during the show (and before: the dinosaurs demonstrate their impatience for the show to start). Of course they have a video section that shows not only the dinos in action but responses from the audience and interviews with the production team as well. There is an educational pack for teachers to use to prepare students before their arrival, from dino facts to what it takes to put together a production of this type. Aimed at the younger audience there are dinosaur games, such as assembling a pile of bones into a skeleton and excavating a fossil with shovels, chisels and brushes. They even have a "widget" to make it easy to share their site on your site (see left).

For so many reasons, this site is a fun site to explore, and an effective website for promoting their show.
