What's the Story?
DINO POPS shares fascinating facts about dinosaurs and the prehistoric world. Animated dinosaurs such as the Spinosaurs, Velociraptor, Gigantosaurus, and the Tyrannosaurus Rex are made to look hyperrealistic as they move and interact with their environment. Each dinosaur is given a funny name to make them more relatable. The show's two narrators share details about the dinosaur's lives, including what they ate, how they traveled, and much more. Pop-up images use modern-day objects as a comparison to the dinosaurs' size, speed, and sound. There's always more to learn about these interesting animals that roamed the Earth millions of years ago.
