Our Oscar turned six last year thinking he was a T-Rex, so I knew I had to get this one right.
The story goes that five young dinosaurs — Lango, Roxy, Tika, Spike and Toru — have lost their way home in the prehistoric valley. It's your job as a dino tracker to help them find their way back, one puzzle at a time. There's no screen time, just you and a bunch of excited little ones hunting through your house or garden, following clues and solving ancient mysteries. The best bit? I watched our two genuinely forgot they hadn't moved in 90 minutes.
📦 What you get in the PDF

- 4 optional bonus challenges if your lot are still going strong
🎯
Best for: ages 4–9, indoors or in the garden, 2–10 little dinosaur fans. Expect 1–2 hours of genuine busy-ness, depending on how far apart you spread the stations and whether they want to go round again.
Hannah’s honest tip: laminate the clues if you can — or at least the map. When our Lily was six, she decided the dinosaur treasure map smelled nice and took a bite. Lesson learned fast. And don't hide the treasure somewhere too clever; at least one child will want to "find it first," and gentle steering keeps everyone smiling.
