Happy Monday! Even if you’re not into dinosaurs, I bet you’ll find this Ancient Globe interesting. You can enter your town - any town - and find what it was like during the age of the dinosaurs. Then, if you’re curious, you can see a description of the dinosaurs that live in that area. AND you can go to any time between now and 750 million years ago. Very very cool.
