"Dinosaur Train" Junior Conductors Academy!

April is Autism Awareness Month and Dinosaur Train is on-board!

Last year, we introduced Buddy's newest friend, Dennis Deinocheirus, in Dinosaur Train's "Junior Conductors Academy." In the episode, Buddy, Tiny, Shiny, and Don learn a lot of new things at the Junior Conductors Academy. They even meet a new dinosaur named Dennis who has a little trouble making friends. Like all dinosaurs, their new friend Dennis has his own dinosaur features. And, like all of us, he has strengths in some areas and challenges in others.

When developing Dennis' character, The Jim Henson Company partnered with Dr. Stephanie E. Meyer, Ph. D.  Read about her experience as an advisor on "Junior Conductors Academy" here.
