Did you know? Dinosaurs and their close relatives, the pterosaurs (flying reptiles) and crocodilians (crocodiles, alligators, and caimans), are the only known groups of animals to have survived the Great Dying, a mass extinction event that occurred about 252 million years ago.

Creative Coloring Ideas:
• The Big Blue Dino: Color the dinosaurs body blue and its spikes yellow. Then, add green grass around it.
• Purple and Teal T-Rex: Use purple for the main color on the dinosaur and teal for the spikes. Add brown dirt under the dinosaur.
• Rainbow Stomper: Color the entire image with a rainbow of colors. For example, use red for one part of the body, orange for another, yellow for its spikes, green for some of its feet, blue for its tail, indigo for its spikes, and violet for its head.
• Black and White Dino: Use black and white coloring pencils to create a grayscale effect. This style is good for beginners or if you want to keep your dinosaur looking simple.
• Pastel Pet: Color the dinosaur with pastel colors such as light pink, baby blue, lavender, mint green, peach, powder blue, pale yellow, lilac, and cream. Use these soft tones to make the image look cute and gentle.
