Discover the Final Weeks of Dino Quest at OliOli® Dubai
OliOli® Dubai, known for its award-winning experiential play galleries, is now entering the last weeks of Dino Quest, a thrilling, immersive experience that brings children face-to-face with the prehistoric world. Built to ignite a sense of wonder, learning, and family bonding, Dino Quest is a must-visit for curious young minds and their parents alike.
Whether it’s your child’s first time seeing a dinosaur up close or they already know their T-Rex from their Triceratops, Dino Quest offers something truly special—and it’s only here for a limited time.
What Is Dino Quest? A Prehistoric World of Hands-On Learning
Dino Quest is a themed play experience set within OliOli®’s innovative space. It goes far beyond traditional exhibits by allowing children to engage directly with the experience—digging, discovering, and exploring at their own pace.
Key features of the experience include:
Life-size dinosaur installations, including the fan-favorite Patricia the Friendly Dino
A fossil dig pit, designed to spark sensory play and tactile exploration
Themed environments that mimic excavation sites and ancient landscapes
Supportive “Imaginators” on hand to guide and inspire (without structured instruction)
At Dino Quest, kids don’t just see the world of dinosaurs—they become part of it.
Why Parents Love Dino Quest: A Learning Experience You Can Enjoy Together
One of OliOli®’s core philosophies is that learning is most powerful when it’s shared. Dino Quest embodies this belief, creating an environment where parents and children play, explore, and learn together.
Child-led discovery helps develop confidence and problem-solving skills
Family-oriented activities encourage bonding and cooperation
Parents are invited to participate—no standing on the sidelines
Ideal for a wide range of ages, from 3+ to early teens
This is not a guided tour. It’s an open space where curiosity leads and imagination thrives.
Designed for Ages 3 and Up – But Enjoyed by All
While the exhibit is best suited for children aged 3 and up, even toddlers enjoy the sensory aspects like digging in the sand and exploring colorful spaces. Whether your child is obsessed with dinosaurs or simply loves to play and discover, Dino Quest offers the flexibility to engage in their own way.
What makes it inclusive:
Flexible play stations for varied developmental levels
Open-ended activities that don’t require reading or formal instruction
Soft learning moments that happen naturally through play

- Develop fine motor skills through digging and handling tools
