For our second child’s second birthday, we are celebrating with a dinosaur-themed party, so I wrote a dinosaur puzzle. The objective is to identify the dinosaur names (some are real, some fictional, some are modern avian dinosaurs, and one is dino-adjacent) from the emoji. I’ve previously made Emoji puzzles for fruit, bugs, and bees.
