What Parents Need to Know
About Dink, the Little Dinosaur
Parents need to know that this cartoon offers a mishmash of frightening, roaring, realistic-looking adult dinosaurs and cute, pudgy young ones who are remarkably nonchalant about their often-expressed fear of getting eaten by the "hunter" dinos. When the hunters appear, or even when the herbivore adults stampede to avoid or frighten a hunter, the scenes are loud and might scare young kids. On the plus side, there are lots of positive messages about acceptance and looking out for your friends.
