Great for 3 year old.
I have bought two of these now, one for my nephew and one for my 3 year old. Both were loved by the boys. Great fun for the money. Ideal add on present or stocking filler.
A great idea
This is a great idea. The films are good pictures for children. My Grandson loved it. Sadly torch is a bit flimsy but it was cheap and you get what you pay for sometimes. Would love to get same idea but with sturdier torch.
Worth it.
Cheap, cheerful little toy to add to my nephews main dinosaur present. He likes it.
Great fu
Bought this for my granddaughter who is three and she loves it.
Review
Bought this as a gift for my son, is good only thing is it has to be really up close to the wall for a clear image. But my son likes i
Excellent for any dinosaur loving kids
Fabulous addition to grandsons Dino Toys He love shining it on any surface to see and trace around the dinosaurs that are projected Highly recommend will but others in the range

Great gift.
Great for kids. Needs a dark room, and needs to be focused also. But amazing images.
So much fun to be had
Bought as a gift. The boys absolutely love this torch! I was amazed how much fun they could have with such a small and simple item!! Will be looking to purchase more/different themes
5yr old dinosaur-mad Nephew loved this gift!
My nephew loved this on opening, so much so all my young neices and nephews wanted to have a go with it! I should’ve brought them all one (even the ones who are not into dinosaurs! Just have to remeber to keep the extra image discs somewhere they know to come back to, as can get lost easily in a busy household I imagine. 5 stars tho as they all thought it was entertaining – so for me great value!
Great fu
Bought this for my nephew for Christmas. I was pretty surprised at how small it is, but he loves it! Came packed well. As it says the pictures can be tiny or big depending on how near/far to a wall/door/ceiling you are. Great pics. Happy boy!
Small and parts get lost easily, but overall a cool little torch for a dinosaur love
This is pretty cool little torch. A bit small but it’s the right size for my 3 year old son. It comes with 3 little wheels with different images of dinosaurs on each one. The problem is there is no where on the torch to keep these so inevitably they get lost. Also the toy itself is easily lost due to its size. Would be better if the things were attached to the torch and were not removable. Also an auto off would be good as they also get left on under the bed or something and the batteries run out. But overall a cool little gift if its look after…
Bit of fu
Well my grandson takes it to bed, everynight…. thats all i needed to know
Learning and fu
Bought for my 5 year old grandson. I have now had chance to try this out with him and it is good fun and some learning too. I also purchased the animal torch projector for him so we could have 1 each and compare our pictures. Would recommend.
Great stocking fille
Torch itself feels a bit flimsy and cheap but the images produced when using the little wheels were clear and great quality. My 4 yo found focusing the images a bit tricky by herself, but the projected is definitely one of her favourite stocking filler gifts.
Fun gadget!
Excellent fun for almost 3 year old. Lots of running about roaring and hiding from the dinos on the ceiling. Each disc has multiple images. Needs to be focused by adult or maybe older kids can do it.
Very popular!
Good little torch
I bought this for my autistic grandson who enjoyed the images as well as using it as a torch. The only down side is that the discs are a bit too fiddly for him to manage himself.
4 year old LOVES this!
Our 4 year old LOVES this! He has spent hours projecting dinosaurs onto every possible surface. Smaller than expected but a really great little gift.
This was one of my son’s favourite presents on his (5th) birthday, getting more air time than remote controlled cars, books, puzzles, slime, mini football table etc.! I was a little dismayed by how plastic and cheap it looked on opening it (hence deducting one star), but the quality of the photos is superb, and it has stood the test of time (his birthday was Oct and it’s now Jan).
Different and interesting
3 year old loves this but would work really well for older children.
Small but impressive quality
Smaller than i expected and the little disks have potential to get lost easily but the quality of the pictures being projected is much better than i imagined. They can be focused depending how close you shine the torch on a surface, and the light is very bright behind so can be used easily during the daytime too. This kept 5 children amused for several hours over Christmas!
fun item
i brought this torch for my 3 year old grandsons christmas stocking filler .. he is dinosaur mad at the moment and had a lot of fun with it ..it was a little tricky for little hands to turn the projector wheel but with help it worked out well
Overall really lovely
Purchased a few of these as presents for 3 year olds. They loved them but I find the dials a bit flimsy when inserted like they are going to fall out when the kids are turning them. Great pictures and size for the little ones.
Pleased
Bought this for my nephew and my friends little boy for Christmas and they love it comes with lots of photos of dinosaurs
Love i
I am really impressed with these torches. Got as a stocking filler and they are really cool. Make sure you are in a really dark room and they are really clear. Use the focus on the end to get the pictures clear. My sons (and me) thought they were brilliant.
Great product. love i
my 4yr old loves it… he loves projecting the light onto the walls and seeing different types of dinosaurs. Now he can learn all the names of the dinosaurs in a fun way. Very educational
Enjoyable and inexpensive
It’s a bit cheaply made but works well. The flashlight and discs are tiny but my grandson enjoys it. I can’t expect more given the cost?
Smaller than expected but looks good
It was quite smaller than I expected, but after some thought I decided to keep it. My dinosaur mad nephew will love this, and turns out it’s the perfect size because he’s only two

Small but hopefully mighty
This is a gift for my 3yr old for Christmas. It is a lot smaller than i realised i thought it would be as long as my hand, its going to look small even in his hand, i just hope the projections are big amd xlear enough
Very prompt delivery
I have bought this as a present for my grandson so I have not tried it so the review is based on the prompt delivery the look and quality of the packaging, it’s good that it comes with the batteries installed and will be ready to use when opened
Smaller than I was expecting...
Bought as a Christmas gift so unable to try out but is smaller than I was expecting. I am expecting National History quality but time will tell.
However very quick delivery & securely packed.

My son adores this produc
Great product for a dinocentric kid. My 5 year old son absolutely adores this gift. He has spent hours on end playing with it. Can hardly pull him away from it. The torch also has a great battery life. I would purchase again.
Kids will love i
When this first arrived I thought yet another item bought online that doesnt match expectations as it was smaller than I expected
However it was a huge hit with the birthday boy and his younger sister …I now to to buy her one for her birthday
Highly recommended

Children love this product.
I bought this product for an 8 year old which would entertain a one year old sister too. It was excitably used on a plain white wall at Christmas and the one year old exclaimed, ‘Snap Snap!’ on seeing the dinosaur head with large teeth. The 8 year old then put the image of the dinosaur head at the one year olds feet and she danced on the spot to avoid being bitten! Ah sisterly love.
Torch/projecto
Best buy!!! This was just bought as a add on to our sons birthday presents last min wasn’t expecting anything brilliant as the price is very cheap but it’s great.our son loves it and never puts it down.the images are great very clear.
Lots of fu
We have had this ages now and still are getting use and fun out of it. It could do with a little bag or case so the extra bits don’t get lost. We used a pencil case but if it came with one, that would make it 5 stars.
Projector torch: does what it says
Simply torch projector with three wheels of images. Back of package identifies each image, and each wheel will lock into place for manual turning. Kids were impressed at first, and enjoyed playing with the focus, but then started running around so it didn’t entertain them much.
Great little torch
Great little torch for a dinosaur lover Haha my son loved it for his bday and is great for displaying dif. Dinos on his wall at night. He thinks its fab and hes 4 would make a nice gift.
Excelle
Love it just have to push the lense with fingers to have clear image which is hard for a two year old to do. Other than that h loves th images and the torch. Its so good and great for stories and imagination and to develop your little one vocabulaire. I bought them as gifts but used them all oups
Great little torch/projector for the price
A nice little torch/projector for the price.
The slides still get used from time to time (purchased other products/slides for variety) but is mainly used as a torch.
Easy to turn on off and is definitely bright enough (avoid flashing in the eyes obviously).
Negatives:
A couple images are poor and hard to make out. Some will look better further away while others will get blurry. Depending on the age of the child, the slides are difficult to load and to turn.
Great gif
When I received the torch I couldn’t believe how small it was.
Great size for toddlers/kids.
Lots of fun at bed time.
Great produc
Found this product very helpful and calming for those on the Autistic spectrum.
Very relaxing and easy to use. Images are clear and varied, nice that they are in colour as well. Good value for money.
Ijust This is the third Dinosaur torch I have purchased since last year. The first two were bought as Christmas gifts for two 4 year old boys. They absolutely love them and are still using them three months down the line. I have just purchased the third for another 4 year old boy and hope he loves it as much. Such a great idea especially as a torch and also for dinosaur loving children.
This has to be one of the best things I’ve bought for my son as well as for a present. The kids just love these. They are so easy to operate, come with batteries and the images are quite clear and big, when projected onto a wall or ceiling. The selection of images is pretty good too and it won’t break the bank! Absolute fantastic all round!
Lots of different images to keep them entertained 😊
Smaller than i thought but that dont effect the images on the wall. If you step back the image will get bigger anyway. Lots of different images to look at. My 3 year old absolutely loves it and so does my year old
Little dino
At first I was totally disappointed by this you which was for my little grandson as it was so so small. But after he received it and finding him mezerised with it I changed my mind thinking it is well worth the money I played for it. He loves to play with it a bedtime 10 minutes before sleep.
Fun for kids even once they lose the image discs
Really cool idea, however pictures are not very clear. If you push on the disc you can sharpen the focus but not something my kids could do themselves. We had a lot of fun with it Christmas morning and they still play with them 6 weeks late as regular flashlights. If you’re getting a flashlight then you will get a bonus with the picture discs as well but only in a very dark room and with some adult help to Center the image.
Will still buy again next year for stocking stuffers but with lower expectations
Grea
Both my children like this. My daughter likes taking the slides out and making animals with her hands projected on the wall. My son loves the dinosaur images.
Better quality
These natural history museum brand torches are better than other brands available. They’re still not perfect, but for the price these are a good learning toy for a young child.

Neat stocking filler gif
I ordered Natural History Museum N5130 Dinosaur Torch and Projector as a Christmas stocking filler for my 7 year old grandson who is fascinated with dinosaurs and he was thrilled with it. Great little gift.

Brilliant buy
Bought 2 for my kids and 1 for my nephew. Biggest hit at Christmas! Comes with a few different slides to reflect different dinosaurs. Really effective. Can zoom in or out for clarity and larger or smaller images. My kids are 2 and 4 and can work it well.
Really impressed
This really impressed me. The images are perfect. The light is really strong so even when using as a torch it’s great. My son really loved it.
DINOSAUR PROJECTOR
Natural History Museum Torch/Dinosaur Projector
I purchased this for my 2year 10 month old Granddaughter. Though she had many more presents to open, she
played with it for at least half and hour, projecting on the wall and on some plastic Dinosaur models she already had, matching them in types and name. A BRILLIANT BUY
Happy custome
Comes with battery nice surprise great size for small hands very durable my 2.5 year old grandson can change the 3 disk in the torch with ease
Great little torch
I bought this for my Gr son as part of his Christmas presents, I might as well as just bought this! He really loves it and is fascinated with it. It was really great low price.

very nice stocking fille
my son Loves Dinosaurs and LOVES this torch. it loves amazing close enough to the wall so he shines it while he’s lying in bed. if he shines it on the roof it’s not clear just the shape of a dinosaur but it’s very clear closer on the wall.
orch little grandson loves i

Fun Item
The Grandchildren (and their friends) really enjoyed playing with this which was purchased as a gift. Good quality and fun. All arrived in good time and condition and I do not hesitate to recommend.
Great little torch
I have bought several of these in different varieties. My kids love them. Most the the images are really clear and easy to identify. Can be used as a little torch on their own as well. I would recommend

Bought two of these for my 4 and 6 yr old boys. Some of the reviews weren’t good about size and quality. Yes the torch is small but it’s actually a perfect size for little hands. The quality of the photos are really good my boys love shining these in the dark on their bedroom walls and all around the house and in their dens. If in doubt do purchase I found them great so good buy and only a few quid not much for lots of fu
Size is disappointing
When I first opened this I was very disappointed in the size but my little boy who it was for loves it and has took it everywhere with him and loves looking at the dinosaurs at night when he goes to bed would recommend to anyone who has a little person who loved dinosau
I bought this as a stocking filler for my 2 year old soon, having read reviews and thought why not give it a go and it is now one of his favourite toys! it was such a hit my 3 year old begged for one! The torch is a lot smaller in real life than the pictures in the advertisement, but that’s not a negative as it suits my children’s little hands just perfectly and does exactly what it’s meant too. We have had endless fun with this from dinasour hunting, to hide and seek. It is the go to tool now for when my toddler is upset come bedtime and a way of getting him into his cot and settled down, he is just fascinated. To all those woundering should I? … yes you should.
Lovely torch for kids
Another Excellent purchase from the Natural History Museum. I’ve bought these torches from them in years gone buy and the quality really is very good in every way. I bought from another brand recently and they were rubbish. For educational toys the Natural History Museum comes out tops for a first choice every time.
Lovely toy and great value.
My 6 year old grandson is delighted with this. I’ve bought these torches before from the Natural HIstory Museum and they’re really the best quality and value for money. Don’t be duped into buying anything else. Honestly.

Pocket-size fu
Much smaller than you would expect, almost key chain size. However it does what it’s supposed to. The picture slides mainly consist of sharks and whales but also some different fish. My two year old loves it regardless.

My daughter received this for Christmas and absolutely loves it. Educational and easy to use. The lens can be focused so don’t be surprised if images projected at different distances appear blurry!
Purchased as a present and seemed pretty popular. Love that is has some obscure sea creatures on there – a good way for kids to learn beyond easy words like ‘fish’. Simple design and easy to use.
Watch the faces and eyes of the little ones light up when they see the pictures projected on the wall, ceiling, bed, cupboard, Times-table poster, and whatever else they want to shine this on. Don’t expect HD quality pictures but this works a treat. Every 5 year old I know absolutely loves having a torch to play with anyway, nevermind the pictures of fabulous sea creatures. The names of the sea creatures are identified and stated on the back of the packaging to further capture their interest. Batteries included. This torch may be small but it’s a winner.
Bought this for my little boy who’s nearly 3 for Christmas and he loves it. Images show up really well on the wall or ceiling. Full colour. The only this I’d recommend or change is putting a hole in the middle if the slides so they can go on the chain and don’t get lost. We like to play David Attenborough with it and use it to tell stories. Finally an item the comes with battery’s included
Bought two of these torches for the Grandchildren (3 and 4) and they loved these. We went for a dark walk, and ended up ‘being chased by dinosaurs’ it really fired up their imaginations (Grandkids pointing torch backwards and running) it was hilarious. They take the torches everywhere with them. Discs are quite small put the Grandkids were still able to switch them over in the torch. Worth every penny.
Bought as a present for my grandson, who is so into dinosaurs.
Pop in a “wheel” of slides, adjust for focus (easy) and shine on wall or ceiling.
Good selection of pictures, from whole dinosaurs to close up of teeth and claws.
For the pure delight it brought to my son- this has to be a 5* purchase for me!
My just turned 2 year old is obsessed with all things dinosaur- I swear the kid even dreams about them- so when I saw this for the low price I figured it was worth it.
When it arrived it was smaller than I anticipated- with 3 small looking slides.
But when I gave it to him- he was delighted- he sat in the car hugging the packet all the way home!
Once opened- set up was easy- as batteries are provided- just pull out the tag on the battery compartment and pop in your slide and you’re ready to roll.
My son was jumping up and down in delight at the projections- and we were playing with this torch for a good 2 hours….
He was loving jumping on the dinosaur when we projected it on the floor, dancing dinosaur when we projected it on the walls. He is too small to change the slides and turn the slides himself as of yet- but this product is aimed at 3+ and my son is only just 2.
Many of the images are dinosaurs, some are fossils, odd one or two is of spikes or a claw.
All said and done this is a childs toy- it’s small for their little hands, the projections are clear- but they’re not HD- because lefts face it- it’s aimed at kids and cost you a fiver……just enjoy you’re childs entertainment- they don’t care its a little bit blurry- all they’re bothered about is that dinosaur on the living room wall!!
Very good, needs darkness
Good, colour dinosaur pictures (of actual dinosaur species) although needs darkness to be identifiable. Projects well onto a wall or ceiling 1 to 2 metres away. Nice size for small hands and easy to operate. Was popular with 2.5 yr old girl and the changeable picture means it’s fun for longer.

Great stocking fille
I have bought a number of these as presents, all kids love them although the younger ones might find the rather realistic photos a little scary. It’s a shame you can’t easily find new discs for them but the light is so cheap it doesn’t matter too much.

Perfect for little presenters
A fun little educational toy. The torch isn’t the brightest, so you’ll need to wait for darkness before using it on a wall. In use the images look good, but it’s a pity there aren’t more dinosaurs included, rather than lots of versions of T.rex. If you have a child who’s a dinosaur fan this is great for them to give a talk to the whole family.

Very cool, but also educational
My three year old son was given this as a gift and we have all been so impressed with it (he loves it!) that we have since bought another one for a friends 5 year old son and it has been a bit hit for them also! I think it has an appeal to a wide age range, though particularly 3-6 years. My three year old delights in the fact that he has his own little gadget coupled with his love of dinosaurs and I love the fact that it is educational in both science (the mechanism of the projector) and also natural history. To be honest, it’s also just very cool to be able to project big dinosaurs on to your bedroom ceiling and walls, and make them look like they are eating your parents and siblings heads isn’t it?!
Two year old loves i
Bought this for our two year old who just loves it. he loves looking at all of the different dinosaurs and is keen to show others that come round too. Haven’t given it 5 stars as the little reels don’t hold their position well, so make it slightly trickier for smaller hands to handle them and get them in the right place. Other than that a good buy.

Dinosaur torch. Great for kids and adults alike!
I bought this for my toddler grandson who is dinosaur crazy. Endless hours of fun, he just won’t put it down. This isn’t just a toy it is a great little teaching aid too. My daughters friends are impressed with it so much I’ve been asked to order two more for their kids too!
What more can I say…

Great gift for kids
I purchased this for my then 2 and a half year old godson about a year ago. I am determined that he will be a massive geek and love all things science related. Best get started with the brainwashing early I say. I purchased both the Space Torch and the Dinosaur torch. The discs are interchangeable with either torch. The images project onto ceilings or walls brilliantly. You can adjust the focus to get a nice crisp image. Getting the discs in is a bit fiddly and but once inserted, you rotate the disc to see the next image. They were an instant hit with my godson. His parents periodically “misplace” the torches so they could be rediscovered. Any time they reappear, he’s just as excited as the first day he received it. As he gets older, we are able to talk more about the images he’s seeing…what the different dinosaur names are, what the different galaxies look like, etc. I’m looking forward to what he comes up with in the years ahead.
Great little toy
my 4yr old loves dinosaurs and loves this – uses it as a little torch most of the time but when we help him load the discs he loves projecting the dinosaurs onto the wall and getting closer/further away to make them smaller or bigger! Good little gadget at a reasonable price. Replacement batteries are very cheap – just as well as he take the torch to bed often leaving it on all night!

I bought this as a top-up present for my 6 year old dinosaur loving son, & he’s suitably impressed. I did read all the bad reviews first – I would agree that yes, it’s kinda small, but if it was much bigger it would be too unwieldy for little hands. And no, the pictures aren’t exactly HD quality, but it’s clear enough & quite effective in the dark. Even his 7 year old sister thinks it’s great.
So expect to receive a slightly overpriced child’s torch, not an amazingly cheap projector, & remember it’s aimed at young kids, not palaeontology students, & all will be well.
What a fantastic little torch!
My son turned 4 last week and I knew he wanted a torch to play with. After looking in shops (nothing decent), I browsed Amazon and found this one. For the price – brilliant. Lots of little dinosaur pictures to be projected on the wall and a normal torch if you want it.
Yes, it’s small but as kind reviewers had already let me know this, I wasn’t disappointed when it arrived.
He’s fascinated with it and as a small birthday gift, it’s near perfect. The only reason I gave it 4 stars and not 5 is that I agree with other reviewers; produce one in a larger size please. We’d pay the extra!
kids lovei
I bought this for a present for a 3 year old. She loved it and immediately took it to her darkened bedroom to use it. My 3 year old boy loved it and wanted to play with it as well. He then received it as a present from someone else at his party! It made him so happy, he kept making the t rex walk across the carpet and ignored All other toys! Pictures are blurry when big but good at short distance.
