While guests stroll at their own pace, they can get up close to dinosaurs throughout the exhibit, ranging from babies to life-like and life-size dinosaurs including encounters with a T-Rex, Velociraptor and Stegosaurus, just to name a few. 

Children can participate in Story time and the Dinosaur Craft Creations Station for various hands-on crafts.

Guests are encouraged to bring non-perishable food items to the event and place in the collection bins located at the front entrance of the stroll.  All collected food items will then be donated to the Mississauga Food Bank to help children and families in the Mississauga area facing hunger and food insecurities.
