Dink, the Little Dinosaur is an American animated series created by Karen Willson and Chris Weber, produced by Ruby-Spears Enterprises.[1] The series originally aired on the CBS Kids block on CBS from 1989 to 1990.[2] The series followed Dink, a dinosaur, and his four friends as they explore and dwell in the volcanic landscape of prehistory in a place called Green Meadow.[3] Designed to help children navigate the world of friendship and making friends, the stories fostered positive behaviors such as caring about oneself and others, tolerance, ecology, problem-solving and teamwork.[4] The second season introduced a weekly segment called "Factasaurus" that taught lessons and fun facts educating children about different dinosaur species.
