Peek Inside a Dinosaur Egg

(Recommended sites for kids, from the editors of CSR).

At National Geographic's web site, you can follow dinosaur hunters as they find and "hatch" dinosaur eggs. These researchers use tiny chisels, acid baths and high-tech scanning machines to peek inside the eggs. Sometimes, they can even see the embryo bones! Here's the link: www.nationalgeographic.com/features/96/dinoeggs.

Here are some other fun dino-links that we recommend.
