Dinosaurs aren't just for boys
I'm all for putting my 5-year-old daughter in so-called "boy" dinosaur shirts, though her obsession with pink and all things girlie stomps my efforts. But now I shall strike back and win with the DinoGirl shirt from Jusami. This adorable, slim-cut shirt features a monstrous pink T-Rex being ridden by a pretty little princess with a wand in a completely ironic and awesome way, which totally makes me laugh. Whether you've got a dino-obsessed girl or not, this shirt is a definite winner. And just in case you've got a dinosaur loving kid of the male persuasion too, they've got a DinoBoy too, rocking the cowboy hat as he rides his bucking Jurassic creature. -Kristen You'll find cool dinosaur shirts for girls at Jusami. And psst: the long sleeve DinoGirls are on sale for $15. Stock up for Fall!
