Dinosaurs Invade Miami's Childrens Museum

Here is our CBS4 Interview!  Enjoy.
The new Dino Island exhibit opens at the Miami Children's Museum on June 5th.
Dinosaurs are coming to Watson Island.

This weekend the Dino Island exhibit will open at the Miami Children's Museum.
"The kids are going to be absolutely amazed," said museum Executive Director Deborah Spiegelman. "Our members can come in for a sneak preview and a pajama party on Friday night. Kids can spend a week at our camp, we have all different themes of camps this summer, one of them will focus on the dinosaurs. We're doing Dino Land sleep-ins where you can spend the night at the museum."
The Dino Island exhibit includes nine lifelike, robotic dinosaurs including a Tyrannosaurus Rex, Apatosaurus, a Triceratops mother and baby, a Maiasaura family and a Pteradon. The sets surrounding the dinos, which were built by the museum staff, include a volcano that erupts periodically with lights and smoke, a swamp with bubbling water and cave with a "fireside" reading nook area.
Kids can also unearth mysteries at a fun fossil dig station and create unique pieces of art at rub stations.
The Miami Children's Museum, which is located at 980 Macarthur Causeway, is open daily from 10 a.m. to 6 p.m. Admission is $12 for Florida residents and kids under a year old are free.
