Dinosaurs rule at Elmhurst art activity day

It was a little bit like a Jurassic Park for kids Saturday at Elmhurst's Lizzadro Museum of Lapidary Art - except nobody had to worry about a T-Rex or a raptor suddenly materializing and trying to eat them.

The museum in Wilder Park celebrated Dino Activity Day, where youngsters could examine fossils, put together 3-D puzzles of dinosaur bones and make their own fossil imprint to take home.
