Under the Volcano

September 26, 2016 By Shanna Leave a Comment

Peyton's Momma DVD DisclosureOne of the first television series Peyton started watching when she was little was Dinosaur Train. Instantly, she fell in love with all the dinosaurs. Recently, Under the Volcano was released. With 120 minutes of Dinosaur Train fun, your little one is sure to be pleased.  I love saving videos like these for rainy days or days I need to get a lot of housework done. Just pop it in the DVD player and your kid doesn’t even mind you are running around the house cleaning. And I like how when Peyton is watching Dinosaur Train she is learning about science, natural history and dinosaurs. It’s not just mindless entertainment. It’s educational entertainment. PBS Kids Dinosaur Train Under the Volcano

Under the Volcano includes 8 different stories –

Under the Volcano

Buddy, Tiny, and Dad take the Dinosaur Train to see Old Smoky, the local volcano. It’s such a spectacular sight that they go back for the rest of the family, only to discover they’ve already gone to see the volcano! The merry mix-up concludes as the whole family meets up just in time to catch Old Smoky erupting.

Old Reliable

Mr. Pteranodon and Mr. Lambeosaurus take all the kids to see a field of geysers – holes in the ground that hot water shoots out from! At the same time, Mrs. Pteranodon and Mrs. Lambeosaurus are relaxing nearby in soothing pools of warm water, called hot springs. In the end, the kids love seeing the geysers and then joining the Moms in their hot springs, while accidentally surprising Mr. Conductor who is secretly trying to relax in his own private hot spring pool!

Nature Art

Mrs. Pteranodon cleans out the clutter from the family nest and the kids are amazed at the pile of stuff – leaves, flower petals, pieces of wood, and shells. Tiny stops Mom from throwing out all the stuff, determined that she and Buddy, Shiny, and Don will find a use for it all. And, they do – the Pteranodon kids have fun making nature art on the beach using the items from the nest!

The Big Mud Pit

There’s big trouble at the Big Pond when Larry Lambeosaurus gets stuck in a mud pit, and then Dad tries to get Larry out, and ends up getting stuck himself. Buddy and Leroy Lambeosaurus have to think quickly to pull their dads out before some big meat-eater finds them!

Derek the Deinonychus

Buddy, Tiny, and Mom visit a family of Deinonychus dinosaurs with large, sharp toe-claws. They meet a kid named Derek who uses his toe-claws to not only hunt with but to carve great art!

Triceratops for Lunch

Our Pteranodon family eats lunch with their friend Tank Triceratops and discovers that he and his family are all plant-eaters, with great leaf-eating teeth and giant appetites!

The Forest Fire

When a forest fire comes to woods not far from the family nest at Pteranodon Terrace, the family takes the Dinosaur Train to visit a nearby area where a fire has already been. The Conductor leads the kids on a Nature Tracker hike through the woods to see how new life is growing back – even after the forest fire’s devastation.

Sunrise, Sunset

Dad takes the Pteranodon kids on an overnight camping trip where they watch both a sunrise and sunset, learning that the sun rises in the east and sets in the west. The kids also find out more about nocturnal (night-active) animals and diurnal (day-active) animals.

You can purchase Under the Volcano online or look for it at your local retailer.
