Prehistoric Park

It is one of the realistic movies about dinosaurs. It tells the story of young naturalist Nigel Marven who is responsible of dinosaurs’ protection from extinction. He brings them through a time tunnel and they appear in Prehistoric Park. The movie has some scary moments but the kids should be alright with them. Prehistoric Park has lots of positive reviews and many families around the world admire this movie.

The Land Before Time

There are more than 10 Land before time movies. All of them are very colorful and musical. Your kids will really enjoy singing along all these great songs. The land before time has become a classic movie for children. Meet Littlefoot the Apatosaurus and his friends and join their journey to find a safe place in the great valley.

 Dinosaur

This movie is great for kids of 6-11 years old. The older your pre-schooler grows the more he gets from watching this movie. An orphaned dinosaur has been raised by lemurs and now they are heading to a sanctuary after the meteorite shower destroyed dinosaur’s home. It is a story of great friendship and bravery.

Dinotopia

Story about the dinosaur named Kex; he lives in the world where humans and dinosaurs exist side to side. Kex has many friends and their build an imaginary world together which is filled with many details. Kids really love magic and their fantasy world is incredible. Let your kids enjoy this movie and develop their imagination.

 We’re back!

A dinosaur’s story. This movie has a modern theme. The main character Captain New Eyes travels back in time, he finds dinosaurs and feeds them his own Brain Grain cereal and it makes the dinosaurs smart and intelligent. The dinosaurs agree to travel to the Future era (modern world) and make all the wishes of kinds in the New York City come true.

 Ice Age 3: Dawn of the Dinosaurs

This movie is perfect for children and their parents. Great jokes will keep adults laughing and amazing storyline with different characters will entertain your kids. Manny and Ellie the Mammoths are ready to welcome their first baby and Sid the Sloth is a little bit jealous and decides to adopt 3 baby T-Rex, and from that moment the adventure begins.

Walking With Dinosaurs

The new dinosaur movie is about to come. Show your kids Walking with dinosaurs trailer and they will definitely want to watch the whole version in cinema theatre. The plot shows a story of Patchi, Scowler and Juniper, three baby Pachyrhinosaurus, about their life during the Late Cretaceous period. It tells how they grow up, get in funny situations and how the most little and clumsy dinosaur becomes a hero and protects his herd from great danger.

Jurassic Park

Jurassic Park is a 1993 American science fiction adventure film directed by Steven Spielberg.  This live action film may be inappropriate for younger children but it is an iconic family film centered on a disastrous attempt to create a theme park of cloned dinosaurs.  It is quite interesting to learn about dinosaurs, cloning science, and morality all in an action packed film.  See commonsensemedia.org for details but I would say 10+ is a good age for this dinosaur movie for kids.

Tip: If you’d like to see this dinosaur movie on the big screen, check out AMC Private Theatre Rentals. It is the perfect birthday party adventure for dinosaur fans. I just discovered this option and old movie screenings are surprisingly affordable.

The Good Dinosaur

This 2015 American computer-animated drama film was produced by Pixar Animation Studios and released by Walt Disney Pictures so you know it is the perfect dinosaur movie for kids.  A dino and  a Neanderthal boy embark on an epic adventure to reunite a young dinosaur with his family.  Trailer here.

Does your child love dinosaurs? These dinosaur movies for kids are sure to entertain the whole family and probably teach your kids something about dinosaurs. What is your favorite dinosaur movie for kids?

    I love the Jurassic Park series too. Of course it might be a bit scary for younger kids. I recommend Dinosaur Train for the younger bunch.
