Five dinosaurs, Intulo, Akkedis, Kgopane, isiBankwa and Kwena are in desperate need of new homes. Luckily five little South African neighbours named: Mila, Zanele, Dumisani, Logan and Julian have opened their homes and hearts to these homeless creatures. Each child will be adopting a baby dinosaur. Your job is to figure out the names and the breeds of the Dino’s and the information about the child giving them a home.

  • The 6 year old child lives somewhere between the child wearing the Pink shirt and the 8 year old child, in that order.
