Experienced Dinosaur Event Proposal Share

This was an experience that our clients shared with us. Why did they create dinosaur themed event! Because of the event, brought fantastic Jurassic experience for kids and grew into the famous IP dinosaur show.

The story from TIME SPACE DINOSAUR RIDER!

1. The origin of the theme activity

We organized an autumn tour and a theatre show in Dragon Lake at the weekend, which attracted a large number of children. The children knew that there were many Chinese dragon buildings in the Dragon Lake Park, so we began to look for dragons in the park with the children.

A child suddenly asked me, “Lee, are there dinosaurs in Dragon Lake?” This problem aroused the great interest of the children on site. They scrambled to express their understanding of dinosaurs, and put forward many questions about dinosaurs.

Questions how did dinosaurs become extinct; Why is Tyrannosaurus Rex so powerful; How many kinds of dinosaurs…

With the children’s questions one by one, the mystery of exploring dinosaurs was driven by us! We wanted to promote theme event with dinosaurs.
