Test Your Prehistoric Knowledge with Mr. Mike the Dinosaur Guy!

Think you know your dinosaurs? Put your prehistoric knowledge to the test at the Dinorific Scientific Name Game with Mr. Mike the Dinosaur Guy!

This interactive, game-show style program challenges participants to decide whether the scientific names they hear belong to a real dinosaur or ancient animal, or if they're something Mr. Mike made up! Some names sound unbelievable, while others seem too strange to be true. Can you separate fact from fiction?

Perfect for dinosaur enthusiasts and curious learners of all ages, this fast-paced program is filled with audience participation, laughter, and fascinating prehistoric facts. Along the way, you'll discover incredible extinct creatures, learn how scientists name new species, and maybe even stump your friends with your newfound dinosaur knowledge.
