Dino Nerd

Troy is amazing when it comes to differentiating between different dinosaurs. We've been watching videos of the computer game Jurassic World: Evolution, which features 68 different dinosaurs from the franchise. By sight alone, he can tell the difference between a Brontosaurus, Brachiosaurus, Apotasaurus, and Diplodochus. To most people they’d probably all just look like long-necked, slow-moving, herbivores. But to Troy each one is unique...the position of the nostrils, spikes or no spikes on its back, the length and size of the neck, etc. But he can also differentiate between most of the other dinosaurs as well, calling out some that I'm unsure of until the I see the name on the screen. Not bad for a two-year old that can't read yet.
