Sandy found Dino at an early summer yard sale with an $8 price tag. She bartered the seller down to $6 and brought the toy home. Dino was missing his handle, so I made one with a dowel rod, a couple of large fender washers and a set of handle bar grips. This gave him a Harley-Davidson dinosaur look. Dino’s solid body is mounted firmly to a pair of curved oak runners, which allows him to rock slightly forward and back. The twins weren’t crawling yet when we purchased Dino, so he waited in Sandy’s office under the table for months while the boys grew. With the Davey and Benji's recent physical advances of standing, cruising and free standing, we thought the time was right to introduce them to Dino. I think Benji’s smile says it all.
