Dino Pet


Dino Pet
Ages: 3 and up
Wow, it is a glowing plastic dinosaur! What a nice night-light! But what makes it glow like that? It is filled with bioluminescent plankton called dinoflaggelates. You may have seen these in the ocean in some places. These plankton are what cause the "glowing waves" at night in places like California, Puerto Rico and the Caribbean. This is a lovely pet that is very easy to care for. Keep the plastic dinosaur in a spot with indirect sunlight (near a window, but maybe not directly on the windowsill) and feed it some of the "dino food" that comes with it. At night, it will glow. Now I really want one of those!
