The Dinosaur Farm

The Dinosaur Farm NOT your ordinary toy store! There's also a special purple room full of princess-y goodies.

Named "One of the Ten Most Amazing Toy Stores in the U.S" by Forbestraveler.com, making USA Today’s “10 Best Independent Toy Stores” list, Buzzfeed’s worldwide “17 Toy Stores That Will Change Your Kids’ Lives” list, The Dinosaur Farm opened late in 1994. Besides offering the biggest dinosaur collection around, the Dino Farm has a unique selection of books, science kits, infant toys & gifts, and art supplies.

Another successful art crawl! We had an absolute ball and we loved our resident artist posting up in the Dino room. Dino Dave and Tay Rex got their portrait drawn, did you? If you missed her this time she’ll be back soon! Make sure to tag us when you post your Doodles!

Enough is enough.
We stand with those in the nationwide protest against ICE.

We’ve always prided ourselves on being a hub for the surrounding communities and a place where kids can be shielded from the harshness and cruelty that the “real world” can sometimes deliver. We’ve decided not to close today but instead open our doors as a refuge for the little ones and parents who love coming to the Dino Farm and need a safe space to simply be. The Thomas train table, Air Tubes, SmartMax table, etc., will be available to play with, as always. For the bigger people, the back room will have a table and chairs for making posters and signs to take to Garfield Park or wherever you’re headed. We have cardboard and art supplies ready for use or feel free to bring your own! We’ll have coffee and snacks available too.
