“Dino Loves Monuments” was a 2018 campaign by the National Heritage Board (NHB) to promote awareness of Singapore’s national monuments. Dino, in the form of a large, inflatable mascot balloon, popped up at various national monuments (such as the National Museum) each weekend for close to two months. Visitors who posted photos of Dino on social media had a chance to win limited edition Dino toys and museum merchandise.
Dino’s design was inspired by the T-rex and ice cream - it has a pink stocky body with white spots resembling ice cream splats and an ice cream cone as a tail.
