Dinosaur backpacks bring a smile!

Dinosaur backpacks are so cute. Kids love dinosaurs. It is sometimes hard to believe that these fearsome creatures are now your kids best friends.

Wonder if future generations will consider our crocodiles and Aligators cuddly and cute? After all they belong to the same reptile group, as the dinosaurs, known as archosaurs. But as Dinosaurs date back millions of years perhaps it will take some time before our crocodiles become cute!

Dinosaur backpacks - but who were the real dinosaurs? 

The term dinosaur developed in 1842 although the first dinosaurs appeared almost 230 million years ago. They were smallish meat eaters -one measured only 1.5m long! His name was Eotaptor which means "early thief" - older version of the early bird catching the worm!

The biggest dinosaur belonged to the Sauropod family - they lived maingly during the Jurassic period over 200 million years ago. They were plant eaters with the body of an elephant but very long necks and tails. Fossils have been found in England, Algeria, Tunisia and Morocco.

Dinosaurs made "popular" by TV series include the Triceratops Dinosaur. This is one of the best known dinosaurs mainly due to the number of preserved fosils that have been found of him. It was the largest of the horn faced dinosaurs - they were plant eaters and weighed about 6 tonnes. The triceratops is relatively young compared to the other dinosaurs in that it lived 75 million years ago.

You cant think of dinosaurs without considering the Tyrannosarous Rex. This giant stood taller than a double decker bus and was about 12 metres long when fully grown. They had massive rear legs and a thick based tail which helped to keep them upright. The Tyrannosaurus Rex Dinosaur, which means king of the reptiles, was a meat eater and lived during the same time as the Triceratops (whom he probably ate!). Contrary to what you see on TV, the arms of the T Rex were so small that they couldnt have passed food to its mouth - their function is as yet unknown. Until the 1990s people thought this was the biggest meat eating dinosaur but then they found the fossils of the Giganotosaurus and the Spinosaurus. But with Jurassic Park etc, it will be the T Rex whom we will all continue to fear!
