I did notice the attraction when I went to Kings Dominion a couple of weekends ago and as cool as it looked, I wasn't willing to drop $5.00 down to see the dinosaurs. My older brother, who has two young boys, took them to see the dinosaurs and like most small children, they enjoyed what they saw.

As I am firmly in the camp of, "I wish my home park got anything," I would be incredibly stoked to see one of these show up at Michigan's Adventure. I've been to the one at Cedar Point twice, and though my daughter, nine, is a little past her extreme dinosaur loving stage, we still enjoyed this attraction immensely. For a family with smaller kids, this is a great thing for a park to have.

I think they'll build the attraction in every major Cedar Fair park. (CP, KI, CW, KBF, etc)

And it is a great way for schools to get an excuse to go to "Cedar Point" or "Carowinds" for a field trip. I know a lot of schools around where I live go to Cedar Point at the end of the year, but, this will get more school groups to go to the park. Not to mention it adds more family friendly attractions.

I was not surprised when I heard Carowinds announce Dinosaurs Alive!. Most Cedar Fair parks with any room that they can squeeze the attraction- and have the money for, will most likely build one of these parks.

I have not been to one, but I plan on going to one.

I went to the one at cedar point. I thought it was kinda lame, but I'm sure younger children would love it. I wonder how long cedar fair expects to keep these attractions going?
