Dinosaur Train's Halloween Happenings ? Costume Giveaway ...

This post is full of all the Halloween Happenings going on over at Dinosaur Train! It?s a busy month??.

Did you know that your child can dress up like Buddy (our favorite T-Rex) or Tiny?? It?s true!

Here?s the Scoop:

  • Each Dinosaur Train costume is made up of soft fabric to enhance comfort while wearing them, and created in vibrant colors and realistic design patterns to make toddlers look and feel like a dinosaur train character! The colorful Buddy costume includes the orange colored T-Rex jumpsuit, Buddy the dinosaur hood, and the shoe covers. The colorful Tiny costume includes the green colored Pteranodon jumpsuit, Tiny the dinosaur hood, and green shoe covers.
  • Both costumes are available for toddlers ages 3-4, and children ages 4-6.

You can also make costumes at home ? DIY!

Jim Henson?s Creature Shop ? the folks who brought you Elmo and Miss Piggy, among many others ? have created a Buddy costume that can be made at home!

Instead of candy, how about a $3.99 Dinosaur Train book like The Spooky Scavenger Hunt ?

Mr. Pteranodon is taking Buddy and Tiny on a nighttime trip to the Big Pond for a spooky nature walk! Mr. Pteranodon and the conductor insist they can?t be scared, but when the conductor?s mom jumps out at them, everyone gets a good scare!

Halloween TV Specials:

Both Haunted Roundhouse and Big Pond Pumpkin Patch will air during the week of October 15, October 22 and on October 31! We?ll be watching.

In Haunted Roundhouse, dad takes the kids on a special Night Train to Troodon Town, where the Troodons have decorated their Roundhouse into a ?haunted house? for a spooky party. The kids end up meeting a strange new nocturnal creature ? a mammal named Vlad Volaticotherium, who was hiding in the roundhouse trying to get some sleep.

And in Big Pond Pumpkin Patch, the Pteranodon family learns more about the customs of their neighbors, the Lambeosaurus family, when they are invited for the first time to accompany them to the Big Pond to celebrate ?Gourd Day? ? a kind of Mesozoic Halloween. The kids see their first pumpkins, and Larry Lambeosaurus even shows our family how to hollow them out and carve faces into them.
