My grandson, the four-year-old natural history museum curator.

Jurassic Kid


"Triceratops, velociraptor...,"  Unerringly, Timmy points to each dinosaur magnet and says its name.  The pronunciation is sometimes a bit off (dilophosaurus is no easier to say than it is to spell), but each name is recognizable.  Such an amazing toddler!

It's a bit eerie, though, how his one-year-old brother watches Timmy's every move.
