We do a lot of family movie nights throughout the year and a few weeks ago we watched the first Jurassic Park. Our kids LOVED it and begged to watch the rest of the movies including Jurassic World and Jurassic World: Fallen Kingdom, so we did! Now, they can’t get enough of dinosaurs. I’ve partnered with National Geographic Kids to share some of their best dinosaur books with you, along with a giveaway!

Hi there! I’m Amber, a 34 year old wife and mom of two from central Minnesota. I love to be outside with my family anywhere the weather is warm (which means I spend half the year freezing). We’re a homeschooling family that loves to travel as often as possible! When I have a spare free moment, I love to read, take photos, and scrapbook. I’m interested in anything that makes life more fun; I also love socializing and sharing about my favorite products!
These Natl Geo books are the best I have been buying dinosaur books for my great great nephew for the last 3 years. He has learned to read and is really enjoying them now
