When the Pteranodon family wants to take the Dinosaur Train under the sea, the Conductor unveils a brand-new invention, the Dinosaur Train Submarine! Come along on an all-new, one-hour Dinosaur Train “Submarine Adventure,” Mon., Feb. 18 on PBS KIDS (check local listings).

I received a screener of Monday’s Dinosaur Train special episodes. This time instead of taking the time tunnels with the Dinosaur Train the kids and their dad are taking the Dinosaur Train Submarine along with Mr. conductor and his nephew, Gilbert. The kids were into the episodes. We were also sent some coloring pages and Eva sat there and colored while she watched the show. She really liked the change of pace to the show with the family meeting all new dinosaurs that lived under water. After watching A Sea Turtle tale she went upstairs and got her stuffed Sea Turtle and brought it down to play with it the rest of the afternoon. I think that Kids are really going to enjoy this new vehicle from Dinosaur Train and the new stories that can come from having this underwater option. I suspect that we’ll see more of this in the future.

Here is the trailer to check out before the show airs.
