Holztiger Dinosaurs

The Ostheimer wooden figures are beautiful but they are so much more expensive than the Holztiger! We only have the polar bear and unicorn. But we have lot of Holtziger figures (and Anne Moze, whose shop is huttonroad on Etsy). Today I was looking for a gorilla figure when I discovered that Holztiger has dinosaurs! If you have a dinosaur-obsessed child, these are a must have! Since they aren't labeled "dinosaur" you have to look through every single figure. Here are the ones I found. Let me know if I missed one!

Pro Tip:
Dimetrodon is NOT a dinosaur. Dimetrodon evolved during the Permian Period, the last period of the Paleozoic Era. In fact, it became extinct 60 MYA before dinosaurs! Dinosaurs evolved in the Mesozoic Era (Triassic, Jurassic, and Cretaceous Periods). It's like the "spiders are not insects" thing.


The kids are going to be SO excited when these arrive in my classroom!


Allosaurus


Ankylosaurus


Brontosaurus


Oviraptor


Pachycephalosaurus


Parasaurolophus


Protoceratops


Staurikosaurus


Stegosaurus


Triceratops


Tyrannosaurus Rex


There's one more (which makes 12), not pictured, which is the Spinosaurus.
