Regardless of the "thanking", you must take your kids to the Dino Pit at the Austin Nature & Science Center.
The Dino Pit, as well as the rest of the Austin Nature & Science Center, is completely free and a great place to combine with a picnic at the Zilker Park and a dip in the Barton Springs Pool. Click here to read our review of the Austin Nature & Science Center.

Now THAT is just too neato!! What kid doesn't dig in the dirt to find bones? Or to dig to China!? That was my goal.
My kids would LOVE a place like that!
I just don't think we have anythiong cool like that here. It's either a theme park or a beach, fun for tourists I guess but not for us locals.
Again, your pics are so pretty and clear! They have a dino dig exhibit at the Fort Worth kids museum. It sounds very similar. I love any kind of hands on activity. It's so good for the littles!
Ohhhhh! Princess Nagger would LOVE it there - she's been talking about becoming a Paleontologist ever since she was 4 years old! :)

It's sad we don't have that in our area. This is cool and the kids would love it.
Oh my gosh I think my kids could spend hours playing in that giant "sand box" how fun!
Love it! If I ever move to Texas or visit Texas all I will have to do is come to your site and will know every good thing to do.
Are you still doing other cities and places or mostly just Texas? We went to a new place today in CA- the Legoland Aquarium, so if you want I could write up a post for you.
