Introduction
Welcome to The Land Before Time Activity Center.
Throughout the Great Valley you'll find lots of fun places to explore.
Each activity has something different for you to try. You can win tree stars
by completing each activity. The more tree stars you win, the more movies you
can see with Littlefoot and his friends in the Tree Star Forest.
If you need help finding your way around the Great Valley, click on the
question mark in the rock.
Good luck!
The Activities
As you move your icon over the Great Valley, you'll here audio "rollovers" identifying various
activities. Click on the desired activity to launch it.
Tree Star Forest
Here you can join Littlefoot and his friends and see video clips
from the movie. To see your choices of video clips, click on the projector
on the bottom left. The more tree stars you have, the more movies you
can watch. If you don't have enough tree stars to watch a certain movie,
go visit the many activities around the Great Valley and win them there.
Dino Trivia
Join Ducky in a fun game of Dinosaur Trivia. You will answer questions based
on The Land Before Time movie or from real life Dino facts! To play, select
the picture that best answers the question. If you want to hear the question
again, click the text. If you want to hear another question, click the arrow
pointing up. You get more tree stars if you can answer questions about actual
Dino facts!
Bramble Maze
Many items are hidden in the Bramble Maze and it's up to you and Cera to find
them! After you help Cera find all of the items on the big rock, you must find
the Exit to return home. But beware of Sharktooth, if he finds you you'll drop
all your items and have to start over. When you've found all your items and
returned Cera home safely, you'll win tree stars. Remember, the more difficult
the maze is, the more tree stars you'll win!
Build A Dino
Build your own dinosaur by mixing and matching Dino pieces! Click on the bones
in the sinking sand to choose your Dino part, then select a piece from the
rock above and start constructing. Make them real or imaginary, it's up to
you. If you want to start over, click on the trash can to clear the screen.
When you have built a dinosaur, you can exit the activity and find out how
many tree stars you have won!
Flying Game
Help Littlefoot or one of his friends fly across the river and land safely
in the tall grass. Click on a character to place them on a tree, then use the
arrow keys on the rocks at the bottom to position the tree and how far it is
bent. When you are ready to send them on their way, click the dinosaur holding
the rope. Use the different sized palm trees on the right to choose your level
of skill. The higher the level, the more objects you must avoid hitting.
When you land them safely in the grass on the other side, you'll win a tree
star, or maybe more!
Coloring Book
Color pictures of your favorite characters in this coloring book. To begin,
choose a picture you like using the arrows on the right side of the screen.
After that, choose a color from the rainbow and click the tool you want to use.
Now you can start coloring! If your pencil gets dull, use the sharpener.
If your brush needs more paint, dip it in the paint can. When you like what
you see, click on the footprint on the right side of the screen to print your
picture. For each picture you paint, you'll win a tree star!
Egg Roll
Littlefoot needs your help to get the egg to safety. Place objects from the
left side of the screen in the egg's path to guide it to the nest at the
bottom. Use the objects to change the direction of the egg, make a bridge for
the egg, give the egg a cushion, or give the egg a ramp. Use the small lava
rivers on the left to choose your level of skill. If you help get the egg to
safety so it hatches, you'll win tree stars!
Make A Story
You can create a story about one of the characters and have it read back to
you. To begin, choose one of the blinking eggs near Petrie. Then, try to put
the sentences in the right order by dragging them up and down the list. The
top is the beginning and the bottom is the end. When you have finished putting
the sentences in order, you must create a picture story to go along with the
sentence. After you have finished the pictures, click on the book that Petrie
is holding to have the story read to you. You will win a tree star for every
story you finish!
Cave Concentration
Help Spike figure out which creatures are in which caves. Select two caves and
match the creatures that are in inside. Choose the number of caves on the left
to change the difficulty of this activity. Keep your eyes open, the creatures
will try to fool you by switching which caves they are in when you are on a
harder level. When you have matched all the creatures, you'll win more tree
stars!
Printing
Several of the "creativity" activities will have a parchment icon at the bottom of the screen which can be clicked to print out pictures. "Royal Outfitter" and "Coat of Arms" will print out line art which can be used as coloring book pages. All activities in "Painter's Palace" will print in color, if a color printer is available. You can export images from "Royal Outfitter" and "Painter's Palace" into Painter's Palace and color them before printing, if a printed color version is desired.
Please make sure that your printer is configured properly before printing.
