NOVEMBER IS GREAT for a lot of reasons. Men grow moustaches, Christmas lights go up, and now it’s the month that toy dinosaurs come to life.
Well, at least that’s what Refe Tuma and his wife tell their children.
Tuma recently wrote a post on Medium about his quest to convince their children that their plastic dinosaurs come alive at night. He and his wife arrange the toys in different scenarios after their kids have gone to bed in order for them to discover the baffling scene the next morning.
So far, their dinosaurs have made a mess of their cereal, raided the fruit bowl, smashed open a carton of eggs, teepeed the bathroom and wrote all over the walls in crayon.

But why would they do this? Refe explains:
Amazing.
Now others are joining in with their Dinovember attempts, using the hashtag #dinovember on Twitter and posting their dinosaur antics to the official Dinovember Facebook.
