Teaches kids about the dangers of tobacco, alcohol, and illegal drugs using fun animations of dinosaurs.

Kids will get caught up in the archeological adventure, gazing in wonder at the dinosaur bones along with the cast, and learn valuable lessons about the dangers of substance abuse. The Great Drugosaur Expedition goes beyond just listing facts and behaviors about substance abuse. The cast discusses why users abuse substances, how to avoid peer pressure, and offers tips for refusing to use drugs of any kind that kids can take away from the tape and use in real life.
