G’day! I’m Banjo, the friendly T-Rex. This is my teddy. We love finding little clues and making new friends. You can look, listen, ask, or take your time. There’s a place for you on our ranger team. Come on, explorer. Let’s discover something wonderful together!
A big dinosaur. An even bigger heart.
Banjo knows the best adventures are the ones we share. A little fossil, a big question, a new friend: there is always something wonderful waiting to be found.
A little prehistoric discovery
Tyrannosaurus rex walked on two legs. Its arms were very small compared with its big body.
Can you spot Banjo’s little arms and big feet?
