Show: Dinosaur Stories for Kids with Dino Dad
THE DINO BOWL RESULTS ARE IN… PLUS A HIGH-STAKES SWAMP ADVENTURE! 🦖🏆
We open today's episode with a massive announcement from the Great Mud Flats! The official Dino Bowl votes are tallied, and Team T-Rex and Team Spinosaurus have fought to an UNSTOPPABLE DRAW! High-fives to all our Dino Scouts who hunted down the secret code R-O-A-R across our printable activity sheets!

Then, we travel deep into the Great River Swamp to meet Pax—a competitive six-year-old Spinosaurus scout—and his older sister, Kia!
Pax is determined to prove he’s faster than his big sister by marking territory cypress trees along the river. But when Pax takes a dangerous shortcut through giant horsetail ferns, he accidentally steps right onto the tail of a sleeping Sarcosuchus—a giant 40-foot prehistoric river crocodile!
Can Kia pull off a brave distraction to save her brother, or will the swamp giant trap them both? Tune in to find out!

Brotherhood & Family First: Competition is fun, but looking out for family and friends always comes first when real danger arises.
Teamwork & Respect: True strength means using your skills to lift up the people around you—whether at home, on the playground, or on the trail!

Join Dino Dad and Dylan "The Venomous" Lee as Team T-Rex and Team Spinosaurus step up to hurl 500-pound solid granite boulders down the field:
🐊 Spinosaurus enters with a massive physical advantage—packing 5-foot muscular arms and razor-sharp claws built for launching!
🦖 T-Rex is the ultimate underdog with his 3-foot, tiny two-fingered arms... but 7 tons of T-Rex power always finds a way!
Plus, Ref Tiny-Tim makes his triumphant return to the field after last week's "swallowing incident," and Dino Dad breaks down the real-world science of why paleontologists think T-Rex had such short arms! Will Spino sail his way to victory, or will T-Rex pull off a controversial "Tail-Pterodactyl-Punt" that breaks the rulebook? Tune in to find out!

Would you sacrifice your most prized secret to save your pack?
In this thrilling, high-stakes episode of Dinosaur Stories for Kids, Dino Dad takes us deep into the humid floodplains and muddy peat marshes of the Kaiparowits Wetlands to meet Pax the Parasaurolophus.
Pax has found a secret pond filled with sweet, energy-packed Glow-Lotus roots, and he doesn't want to share. But when a predatory pack of three fierce Teratophoneus begins tracking his herd, Pax is faced with a massive test of Integrity. Should he stay hidden and silent to protect his secret, or should he use his giant, hollow head-crest to sound the alarm, drawing the danger directly to his hiding spot?
Join Pax on this immersive, 20-minute journey as he learns to Take Charge, move from selfishness to sacrifice, and discover what it truly means to follow The Hero's Way. Experience the thrilling climax where Pax is cornered by the relentless predators, only for the entire herd to shatter the reeds and form an unbreakable "Pack Stance" to protect him—proving that when you stand up for the herd, the herd will stand up for you!

June 06(Envy) Percy and the Wishing Geode: Protoceratops vs Triceratops
Episode Description
Have you ever looked at a friend and wished you could swap places with them?
In this magical, high-stakes expedition to Sparkle-Stone Canyon, Dino Dad introduces us to Percy the Protoceratops. Percy is a brilliant 'Specialist Scout'—he’s small, fast, and has the best eyes in the valley. But Percy is tired of being the small guy on the trail. He wants to be a giant with massive horns, just like his best friend Triton!
When Percy finds a glowing, mysterious Wishing Geode hidden in a purple crystal cave, he gets his wish. But his new giant size comes with giant problems! Join Percy as he discovers that walking someone else's path usually gets you stuck in the mud, and learns the life-changing secret of The Best-Me Path. It's a 15-minute coastal canyon adventure about self-acceptance, unique talents, and celebrating exactly who you are.
🌟 The Best-Me Path: Why trying to look or act like someone else makes us lose our own special strengths.
💪 Specialist Power: Discovering how being small, quiet, and quick can save the day in ways the giants never could.
🪞 The Mirror Rule: A simple tool to help kids look in the mirror and focus on their own special "gear bag" of talents instead of what they feel is missing.
💎 Prehistoric Geology: Learn about geodes—hollow rocks filled with sparkling crystal treasures—and how they formed millions of years ago!
After listening to Percy's big transformation, head to DinoDadPack.com to cast your vote on this classic leadership debate:
The Giant's Roar: Is it better to be the biggest, strongest dinosaur with the loudest walk so you can lead the flock from the front?
The Best-Me Path: Is it better to be proud of your own unique, specialized gifts (no matter your size) so you can help the flock in ways the giants can't?
Is your explorer a Super-Detail Dino? We want to hear their favorite prehistoric facts and feature them on a future expedition!
