Children will love the outdoor area where they\u2019ll get to interact with all kinds of robotic dinosaurs including a growling T-Rex and dozens of others.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Raptor X-treme<\/strong> is fun. In this zone you will be chased by people in dinosaur costumes as you go on a mission to battle the Velociraptor in an interactive game of cat and mouse that can be quite entertaining for the whole family.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"aligncenter\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" width=\"1280\" height=\"852\" src=\"https:\/\/www.bangkokbeyond.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/09\/Dinosaur-Planet-Bangkok.jpg\" alt=\"dinosaur-planet-bangkok\" class=\"wp-image-9040\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.bangkokbeyond.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/09\/Dinosaur-Planet-Bangkok.jpg 1280w, https:\/\/www.bangkokbeyond.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/09\/Dinosaur-Planet-Bangkok-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.bangkokbeyond.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/09\/Dinosaur-Planet-Bangkok-768x511.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.bangkokbeyond.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/09\/Dinosaur-Planet-Bangkok-1024x682.jpg 1024w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1280px) 100vw, 1280px\" \/><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>The Dino Farm,<\/strong> on the other hand, is made for the younger children. Here is where you get them to ride on a dinosaur, dig up fossils and learn about dinosaurs through interactive games. Engagement levels might vary, depending on how much into dinosaurs your kids are, I guess.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Dinosaur District<\/strong> is the interactive edutainment sector where you can learn about dinosaurs through various multimedia presentations. You can go through different rooms, see the science behind the different creatures, watch dinosaur eggs hatch in the \u2018Dino lab\u2019 and see a walking baby dino. Aww.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>At the <strong>Great Volcano<\/strong> kids get to watch a live volcano eruption and learn how dinosaurs faced extinction. The show is narrated in Thai, so foreigners might miss out on some of the educational aspects, but kids should still enjoy the prehistoric costumes and the colourful volcano in action.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Finally, there is also a <strong>4D simulator<\/strong> where kids get to explore the ocean world with moving projections and a dinosaur themed Ferris wheel called Dino Eye.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If you\u2019re travelling with children, <strong>Dinosaur Planet<\/strong> will most definitely keep them entertained for a few hours. The location is fantastic, right on Sukhumvit Road only a few minutes\u2019 walk from Phrom Phong BTS. Dinosaurs are great crowd pullers and it does get busy, so I would try to go on a weekday instead of weekends or school holidays to avoid the crowds.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4>You might also like<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"is-layout-flex wp-container-4 wp-block-columns alignfull has-text-color has-background\" style=\"background-color:#ffffff;color:#000000\">\n<div class=\"is-layout-flow wp-block-column\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.bangkokbeyond.com\/blog\/sea-life-bangkok-ocean-world\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.bangkokbeyond.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/03\/sealife_ocean_world_bangkok_open_ocean-300x209.jpg\" alt=\"\"\/><\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h5><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.bangkokbeyond.com\/blog\/sea-life-bangkok-ocean-world\">SEA LIFE Bangkok Ocean World<\/a><\/strong><\/h5>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"is-layout-flow wp-block-column\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.bangkokbeyond.com\/blog\/amped-trampoline-park-thailand\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.bangkokbeyond.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/01\/Amped-Trampoline-Park-Thailand.jpg\" alt=\"\"\/><\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h5><strong><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.bangkokbeyond.com\/blog\/amped-trampoline-park-thailand\">Amped Trampoline Park Thailand<\/a><\/strong><\/strong><\/h5>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"is-layout-flow wp-block-column\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.bangkokbeyond.com\/blog\/ice-skating-rinks-in-bangkok\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.bangkokbeyond.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/08\/IMG_0189.jpg\" alt=\"One more view from Baiyoke Sky Hotel\"\/><\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h5><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/wordpress.org\/\"><\/a><a href=\"https:\/\/www.bangkokbeyond.com\/blog\/update-on-bangkok-us\"><\/a><a href=\"https:\/\/www.bangkokbeyond.com\/blog\/update-on-covid-19-situation-and-us\"><\/a><a href=\"https:\/\/www.bangkokbeyond.com\/blog\/ice-skating-rinks-in-bangkok\">Ice-skating rinks in Bangkok<\/a><\/strong><\/h5>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Dinosaurs and robots are always popular with children, so what better way to entertain the kids than by taking them to a theme park filled with giant animated dinosaurs.
