Baby Dragon Grinning in Front of a Castle Gate

Coloring guide
This friendly baby dragon is sitting on a grassy hill right by a big castle gate, with wide eyes and a grin full of tiny teeth. It has two curved horns, spiky fins behind its head, a striped belly and a dotted back, and its curly tail wraps around at the bottom left. Both bat-style wings are spread wide. Behind the dragon, two tall castle towers with scalloped pointed roofs and waving flags frame an arched wooden door with round door rings. A few small bushes, grass tufts and a couple of rocks fill in the ground. The wing panels, tower bricks and big door give kids lots of room to work. Soft green on the wings and belly stripes looks nice, and a warm brown gate helps the dragon stand out. Save it as a free PDF for an easy afternoon activity.
