TCP: Dinosaur
Aladar, Neera, Kron, Bruton, Emma, Plio, Zini, Suri, Eema are only some of the names that are printed in my head, because this movie is being played a number of times a day. We watched it the first time when we rented the DVD and since then, my Cheeky Munchkin can no longer be stopped from watching it. We can’t find a DVD so we seached it on YouTube and good thing it’s there! Yes, the full movie is there! This doesn’t mean though that we won’t be buyinga DVD anymore, because my dinosaur girl will surely insist. Well, I would agree that this is one of the nicest Disney films I’ve ever seen and so I can’t really blame my daughter.
Alyssa is so fascinated with dinosaurs and it all started when she watched this and she was only 3 years old then. Now she’s 4 1/5 and that didn’t change a bit. In fact, she’ll get hold of any dinosaur toy, soft or hard, whenever she gets the chance to do so. So what does this Dinosaur film all about?
It’s about a dinosaur egg that has travelled to different places and finally came to the land of the lemurs. The lemurs adopted the dinosaur and named him Aladar. They taught him how not to like meat and they all considered each other a family. Then the what has been known as a “big bang theory” where a meteor shower hits the earth, they have no choice but to leave their land and go somewhere they never knew of. That was the only time when Aldar saw others who look like himself. The other dinosaurs thought he’s just normal and so he’s been welcomed to join the clan led by Kron and Bruton. They travelled all together and try to reach the nesting grounds, but it’s not going to be easy. So a lot of trials have been encountered along the way and because the leaders don’t care about everyone, Aladar voiced out what he thought was best. He taught the others how to protect one another as a group so they can battle all the carnotaurus that’s been trying to kill them.
It’s a film that teaches kids how to love one another because each and everyone is important. It also teaches kids how to listen to other’s opinions and not all the time what they thought is right. It’s a film worth watching by every kids and as a mom, I know and I believe that these are some simple ways for us to teach our children good manners.
