Science Videos for Kids

In this video series for kids, we are learning about dinosaurs from A to Z. Today’s dino is the Iguanodon! The Iguanodon lived almost everywhere on the planet more than 110 million years ago. Its name means "iguana tooth." Its fossils are some of the most common ones paleontologists have found. Scientists named the dinosaur Iguanodon because they thought its large teeth resembled the teeth of an iguana. But that is where the similarity ends! Iguanodons are not related to iguanas at all. They were much larger than iguanas are, probably weighing around 9,000 pounds. The dinosaur was around 32 feet in length from its head to the end of its tail. It walked upright on two legs and ran on all four legs. It had a beak-shaped nose that was useful for gathering vegetation to eat. We hope you and your student(s) enjoyed learning about Iguanodons!
