It is true that dinosaur toys are now everywhere. They have spread like wildfire into the lives and playtime of children across all borders and countries, and across all ages and genders. Adults often wonder how dinosaur toys have become so attractive to young children. They often forget that they too, at such a young age, coveted and adored these mini replicas of creatures we never actually got to see, leaving only relics and fossils to fuel our imaginations and ultimately create a world we didn’t live to see, but can now return to by recreating it.

At this time, the appeal of dinosaur toys can not only be found in young children, even people aged 18 and above are hooked on collecting them. Therefore, these dinosaur toys are not only meant to entertain the young… but also the young at heart, as well as a means to have some sort of collectibles.

They are everywhere. Neatly placed inside a one year old’s baby carrier; stacked one after the other inside a toddler’s playroom; held tightly by a small child inside the mall; sleeping soundly next to the elementary school student; inside a cabinet full of collectibles of a young man who is deeply and extremely fascinated with creatures, and is even studying to become a paleontologist; she noted in the will of an elderly retiree that she spent his life going on one adventure after another in search of dinosaur bones and fossils, and now she would like to pass the excitement on to his grandchildren by leaving behind their well-cared for and beloved dinosaur toys.

It’s safe to say that the future of toy dinosaurs doesn’t seem diminished at all. And since dinosaur toys have clearly appealed to generation after generation, it looks like they’re here to stay.
