SUMMARY:Tiny Titans Exhibit
DESCRIPTION:Sponsored by Mobile County – District 2.\nAdditional support from Alabama State Representative Adline C. Clarke \n  \nTiny Titans Take Over the Exploreum!\nStep back in time and discover the incredible world of dinosaurs like never before! \nThe Exploreum Science Center is thrilled to present Tiny Titans: Hatching the Past\, a captivating\, hands-on exhibition that offers a rare and exciting glimpse into the lives of dinosaurs through their eggs\, nests\, and young. This immersive exhibit showcases an extraordinary collection of real (fossilized) dinosaur eggs and nests from around the world—including specimens from each of the major plant- and meat-eating dinosaur groups! \nThis one-of-a-kind experience brings together two of the most fascinating things in the natural world: DINOSAURS and BABY ANIMALS. Through interactive displays\, stunning fossil specimens\, and vibrant murals\, visitors of all ages will explore the science behind dinosaurs\, their offspring\, and how paleontologists uncover and study prehistoric eggs. \n \nWhat Will You Discover?\n\n\nAuthentic Dinosaur Nests & Eggs – See real and replica eggs from a variety of dinosaur species. \n\n\nThe Famous “Baby Louie” Skeleton – A nearly complete fossilized skeleton of a baby dinosaur\, once featured on the cover of National Geographic (May 1996). \n\n\nTouch & Explore – Feel real fossilized dinosaur bones and touchable replica eggs from different species. \n\n\nDino-Themed Fun – Enjoy hands-on activities like dino dress-up\, dig pits\, a Jurassic playland\, and the chance to build a dinosaur skeleton. \n\n\n \nInteractive & Educational Experiences\n\n\nDinosaur “Petting Zoo” – Encounter five lifelike baby dinosaurs in enclosures with full-size parents watching over them via a breathtaking mural by renowned paleo-artist Luis V. Rey. \n\n\nProtoceratops Skeletons – Get up close with stunning mounted skeletons of these ancient creatures. \n\n\nPaleontology Videos & Activities – Watch engaging videos featuring top paleontologists and try fun\, interactive learning stations. \n\n\nWorld-Class Artwork & Photography – Marvel at the work of paleo-artists Luis V. Rey and Mark Hallett\, plus striking photography from Academy Award-winning photojournalist Louie Psihoyos. \n\n\nDinosaur Embryo Sculptures – See fascinating models of what baby dinosaurs may have looked like inside their eggs. \n\n\n \n\nA Must-See Exhibit for Dino Fans of All Ages!\nWhether you’re a budding paleontologist\, a dinosaur enthusiast\, or just love science\, Tiny Titans: Dinosaur Eggs and Babies offers an unforgettable journey into the prehistoric past. Don’t miss your chance to explore this incredible world—only at the Exploreum Science Center! \n \n \nFor field trips please contact Monica Dunklin at mdunklin@exploreum.com or via phone at 1-251-208-6880. \nDownload Teacher Resource Guide here. \nDownload Adventure Guide here. \n“Dinosaurs are a ‘gateway’ topic to encourage interests – and ultimately careers – in science among children. Fascinating fun for the entire family\, TINY TITANS traveling exhibit is an engaging hands-on dinosaur short-course exploring the ecology of egg-laying\, nesting behavior\, nestlings\, and parental roles among dinosaurs.”\n– George Phillips\, Paleontology Curator\nMississippi Museum of Natural Science\nJackson\, Mississippi\n“

Visual effects will enhance the audience’s perception of scale as multi-layered backgrounds exaggerate the sense of miniaturization. Viewers will never see our planet the same way again.
