Pretty good resource for that kind of thing if you have another interested kid and access to the internet. There's also this:

    Oooh, thank you! I love adding resources like this to tabs on my work computer. The nature of my job means I'm sometimes with kids with vastly different interests, so the more resources, the better.

    Off-topic, but if anyone has/works with a kid who loves dinosaurs and prefers visual information, I also have a neat dinosaur size comparison page bookmarked.

    The target human seems a bit small to me, but I am 193 cm. Neat site!

    Edit: at first I thought that Archaeopteryx wasn't displaying. Then I switched the Triceratops to a Velociraptor. Had no clue that Archaeopteryx was that tiny! He's an adorable little bird.
