Dinosaur Timeline for Kids: When did the dinosaurs live?
What is the dinosaur timeline? When exactly did the dinosaurs live? When was the age of the dinosaurs? When did dinosaurs become extinct? What are the Triassic, Jurassic and Cretaceous time periods? Read on to find out all this and more about the Dinosaur Timeline.
When trying to answer my son's questions about dinosaurs I realized I was rather lacking in my knowledge of the dinosaur timeline. So I decided to put that right. I've put together a page that aims to teach the basics of dinosaur history in a way that you'll remember. This could be the basis of a dinosaur lesson plan or just for fun.

What is a dinosaur?
Dinosaurs PosterBuy at AllPosters.com (International)
Dinosaurs didn't just appear, they evolved from reptiles. Therefore before we look at the dinosaur timeline we need to understand what a dinosaur is.
We all recognize a dinosaur when we see one. Or do we? What is it that makes a dinosaur a dinosaur?
Dinosaurs are reptiles with a set of features that distinguish them from other reptiles. The most commonly cited distinguishing feature is that dinosaurs legs go straight down underneath them, like the legs of mammals and unlike the legs of other reptiles which splay out to the side.
As we will see, there are lots of animals that are generally referred to as dinosaurs which technically weren't dinosaurs.
When did dinosaurs first appear?
Dinosaurs first appeared around 230 million years ago during the Triassic period.
To put this in context, the earth is calculated to be around 4.5 billion years old (that's American billions, i.e. 4.5 thousand million years old).
The first simple cells appeared 3.8 billion years ago and life gradually evolved from that point.
Fish appeared around 500 million years ago.
Reptiles appeared around 300 million years ago.
Dinosaurs appeared around 230 million years ago.
Mammals appeared around 200 million years ago.
Birds appeared around 150 million years ago.
(See a full timeline of evolution at Wikipedia.)

When did dinosaurs go extinct?
Dinosaurs died out around 65 million years ago at the end of the Cretaceous period. Dinosaurs roamed the earth for over 160 million years.
Humans have only looked like they do today for 200,000 years. We have a way to go to catch the dinosaurs.
But it wasn't the same species of dinosaurs throughout their 160 million year reign. Dinosaurs evolved and not all species of dinosaur existed at the same time.

Mesozoic Era: Triassic, Jurassic, Cretaceous
Three ages of dinosaurs
The Mesozoic Era is know as the age of the dinosaurs as it includes the three time periods in which dinosaurs lived. The three ages of the dinosaurs were Triassic (when they first appeared), Jurassic (as in Jurassic Park), and Cretaceous (at the end of which they were made extinct).
To remember of the order of the ages of the dinosaurs we've come up with this mnemonic:
Terrible Jurassic Creatures.

What are we doing in the Permian era? I thought you said dinosaurs appeared in the Triassic.
Yes, dinosaurs appeared in the Triassic. Permian is the era before Triassic and Dimetrodon lived in Permian period.
Dimetrodon is NOT a dinosaur. Dimetrodon lived in the Permian era before the dinosaurs. Interestingly, Dimetrodon was more closely related to mammals than to lizards. We have a couple of Dimetrodons in our dinosaur box. Now we know.

Triassic Dinosaurs
245-208 million years ago
The first dinosaurs appeared around 230 million years ago. The climate was hot and dry. It was even warm at the north and south poles.
Eoraptor was one of the very first dinosaurs. No, I hadn't heard of him either. Eoraptor was a carnivore of about 1m in length. Eoraptor was discovered in 1991.

Coelophysis appeared later in the Triassic period. Coelophysis was also a carnivore, but was bigger than Eoraptor at around 3m in length.
The first herbivores also appeared in the late Triassic. Plateosaurus was big, up to 10m long.

Jurassic

Jurassic Dinosaurs
During the Jurassic time period some well-known dinosaurs start to appear. The climate was still warm and it was humid enabling jungles to expand. The herbivores has plenty of vegetation to eat and got bigger. The carnivores also had plenty to eat (the bigger herbivores!) and grew. Throughout the Jurassic era, dinosaurs got bigger and new species evolved.
Large herbivores like Brachiosaurus roamed the land and pterosaurs soared above.

Cretaceous Dinosaurs
During the Cretaceous time period, the famous Tyrannosaurus Rex appears. As do two other modern favorites: Triceratops and Parasaurolophus. Well Parasaurolophus is a big favorite in our house anyway.
The Creataceous era had lots of volcanic activity. Flowering plants appeared and spread. Hadrosaurs like Parasaurolophus fed on flowering plants. Plentiful food supplies and the temperate climate meant that dinosaurs kept getting bigger. There were some really big carnivores like T-Rex and Spinosaurus during the Cretaceous period. And even bigger herbivores like the long-necked Sauropod Argentinosaurus.
The dinosaurs were doing very well at the end of the Cretaceous period, and then they became extinct. Most scientists think this was due to a massive meteorite hitting the earth and causing a devastating cloud of debris which stopped plants growing. The dinosaurs had a good run, but the Cretaceous was their final era.

Dinosaur Days Resource
Online or CD-ROM
We recently bought Dinosaur Days - it's available online and on CD-Rom. I got it for my nearly five year old son to use on his netbook. It has been a great success! He loves to watch the videos and listen to all the facts about dinosaurs.Dinosaur Days is organized into the Triassic, Jurassic and Cretaceous time periods and features dinosaurs from each time period as well as general videos on dinosaurs. There are also games to play and worksheets to complete. Some of the more advanced activities require reading so I can see this will last my boys for a while.
Well worth the very low purchase price for the beta of Dinosaur Days.
Dinosaur Timeline Summer Outdoor Activity
This is a fun dinosaur timeline activity to do outdoors in the summer. You'll need some chalk and a large stretch of driveway or sidewalk that you can draw on.
Mark out a timeline with thick vertical lines at the boundaries of the Triassic, Jurassic and Cretaceous time periods at the ratios shown in the dinosaur timeline diagram. You can either do this roughly by eye or you can get a big measuring tape and mark it accurately.
Write the names of the time periods onto the timeline in one color. And write the names of dinosaurs that lived in the time period in the correct place. Or if you're artistic you can draw the dinosaurs.
You can also add on when humans appeared and how long we have been around.
Working in physical space like this is a brilliant way to develop an understanding of the time periods involved. And it's lots of fun! Everyone in the neighborhood will wonder what you are up to!

Dinosaur Timeline and Creationism
There seem to be some people who teach children that the earth is only a few thousand years old and that dinosaurs were killed in the flood. Pseudo-scientific reasoning is used to explain how the flood caused fossils.
This is simply not true. Christian pseudo-scientists decide on the outcome they want (dinosaurs and people and all other creatures lived at the same time just after a god created them) and then they reason backwards making up things that sound plausible if you're not a scientific thinker.
This article does a great job of debunking creationist myths about the dinosaur timeline: Christian Answers: Fossils and The Flood. (There is some strong language in the article. Understandably.)
A great activity for older kids is to present the pseudo-scientific explanation of the flood to them and see if they can find the problems with it.

Dinosaur Discovery Timeline
Dinosaur History
So we've looked at the timeline of when dinosaurs lived. But what about when dinosaurs were discovered?
Dinosaur bones had probably been discovered many times through prehistory and history, but it was the community of scientists and naturalists in 19th century (1800s) England who began the serious study and classification of dinosaurs.
Richard Owen was one of the leading experts and in 1842 he coined the term Dinosauria to name these creatures.
