Attention Dinosaur Train fans! There’s a brand new episode of Dinosaur Train premiering on Monday, January 17 on PBS KIDS® (check local listings).
In the all-new episode, “The Good Mom;” “Diamond Anniversary,” Mrs. Pteranodon meets fellow mom Millie Maiasaura, who is a little too over-protective of her kids. The two moms share some time comparing mothering methods in a play date at the Big Pond. And, Mr. and Mrs. Pteranodon decide to surprise each other with gifts on their anniversary.

Regarding the first part of this all-new episode, “The Good Mom,” you might be interested to know that Maiasaura, meaning “good mother lizard”, was a large duck-billed dinosaur that lived in North America during the Late Cretaceous. There is evidence that Maisaura lived in large nesting colonies and that the parents diligently cared for their young!
Speaking of nesting, we’ve always loved to hang out at home in PJs with feet and now Kohl’s sells Dinosaur Train™ Striped Footed Pajamas in sizes 2T-5T ($26.00). The dinosaur appliques and striped pattern on these footed pajamas are classic and the footed design will keep the toes of your Dinosaur Train fans toasty for the remaining winter months as they watch their favorite show!

If you aren’t familiar with Dinosaur Train, young viewers join Buddy and his adoptive family of Pteranodons on whimsical adventures through prehistoric jungles, swamps, volcanoes and oceans as they unearth basic concepts in natural science, natural history and paleontology. The Dinosaur Train is a colorful locomotive, customized to accommodate all kinds of dinosaurs, and it has the ability to visit the Triassic, Jurassic and Cretaceous worlds, while the Train’s Conductor, a knowledgeable Troodon, provides passengers with fascinating facts along the way.
Dinosaurs and trains may sound like an odd combination but in our house, the show is a huge hit and we love the accompanying website on PBSKids.org!
I received a pair of Dinosaur Train pajamas for review purposes. No compensation was received for this post. Information and images for this post are courtesy of PBS.
