Description
Match the dinosaurs with their skeletons in the latest in our best-selling range of memory games.
In Match these Bones, reunite the dinosaurs with their skeletons, learning about your favourite species and how they were discovered. Read fascinating facts from the included educational booklet as you play, from which dinosaurs had feathers (and how this shows they evolved from birds) to what those spikes on triceratops' skulls are really for. Everything we know about dinosaurs today comes from the discovery of bones and fossils. Dinosaurs are a perennial favourite with children, so it's the perfect game to buy for dinosaur experts or future palaeontologists!
Match these Bones is a follow-up to the best-selling matching and memory games including:
- Match a Pair of Birds
- Match a Track
- Match a Mummy
- You Callin' Me a Cheetah?
- Match a Leaf
- Butterfly Wings
