Dino Dana

Jesus the morons who have written other reviews are astounding. This show is for KIDS. Specifically kids who love dinosaurs.

My CHILDREN love this show.

I can't believe people think she's mentally ill, taking hallucinogens, and being enabled by parents.

Jesus Christ what are your reviews of Barney?!

TERRIBLE DINO COSTUME. GRAPHICS SUCK. KIDS ARE ON MUSHROOMS TALKING TO DINOSAURS.

Wish I could slap the lot of you.

Dino Dana is a TEN OUT OF TEN for my kids. Super educational, teaches about life, death, birth, moving, mixed families, owning a dog, fostering a pet, having a new sibling, the whole shebang. Highly recommend for any kid who loves dinosaurs.

I recommend this show to all the mum's I know. All three of my children will watch it happily (5, 3 and 1) and I don't hate it either - in fact, I secretly love it!

The storylines are sweet and endearing, the main character is very engaging and I like the way that they focus on just a couple of dinosaurs at once. My sons talk about Dinosuchus and Plesiosaurs and know that they swim. Brilliant!

More like this please Amazon.

Not sure if the 1-star reviews for Dino Dana are serious or just lame attempts to be edgy. In any case, this is a pretty good show in my opinion and my 3 year old loves it. There's plenty of throwaway kids TV out there that oversimplifies pre-history but Dino Dana does a good job of both entertaining and educating. The writing, special effects, and acting are all absolutely fine. I'm perfectly happy with my daughter getting her dino fix from this show.

As any caretakers of a dino-manic child knows, finding age appropriate movies or shows about their favorite prehistoric giants can be a tricky thing; the reason being that it's hard to find that sweet spot between realism and lack of violence. But for all intents and purposes, Dino Dana represents a sweet spot between these two ideals. The story focuses on a young girl names Dana who is on a mission to learn more about dinosaurs through simple to understand field studies of her imaginary dino friends (portrayed amply with CGI). However, it would be incorrect in saying that Dino Dana is exclusively a show that teaches children about dinosaurs. Throughout the first season I was also happy to find life lessons scattered about such as waiting your turn, helping friends and generally all things related to being a good samaritan and/or decent person. For all these reasons and more, I'd recommend Dino Dana to any parent looking for a new show for their child.

We kinda like it too. I particularly enjoy the relative paleontological accuracy of Dana's imagination.
