Dinosaur Coloring Pages

About the Dinosaur Coloring Pages

Dinosaurs are a sure hit in PreK through grade 2, and this set keeps them friendly rather than fierce. There is a T. Rex, a Triceratops with its three horns, a Spinosaurus with its tall sail, an armored Ankylosaurus with a club tail, a Pterodactyl flying over the page and a Baby Dinosaur hatching from a cracked egg, all with big simple spaces for young colorers. The Stegosaurus, the Long-Neck Dinosaur and the Parasaurolophus by its pond are more detailed, with a little prehistoric scenery, and the Dinosaur Fossil page shows bones and a footprint buried in layers of rock, ready for a lesson on how scientists dig them up. Every picture was drawn for this site, so you can print as many copies as your class needs.

Ways to use dinosaur coloring pages

• A dinosaur unit

  Print the Triceratops, Stegosaurus and Long-Neck Dinosaur 2 to a page and have students label the horns, plates and long neck after coloring.

• Color by number warm-up

  Turn on Color by number for the T. Rex. Students match each number to the color key at the bottom, which practices number and color-word reading.

• Story starter

  Give each student the Baby Dinosaur. After coloring, they write or tell what happens when it climbs out of the egg.

• Choosing time on the board

  Press Color on the Board and let students take turns picking a color and tapping a space on the dinosaur everyone voted for.
