Long-Necked Dinosaur Snacking on Treetop Leaves, Advanced Designs
Coloring guide
The main event on this free printable is a friendly long-necked dinosaur stretching up to nibble leaves from a tall tree. It has a big round eye, a gentle smile and a few oval spots along its back and neck. The tail curls at the tip, and four sturdy feet stand on the grass. Behind it, a small volcano puffs smoke between rolling hills, with two fluffy clouds overhead. Ferns and grass tufts fill the foreground corners. With big shapes and small details together, it's good for kids who want a bit more to color. Soft greens or blue-grays suit the dinosaur, with orange and yellow spots so they show up. Make the leaves it's munching a bright, fresh green. Looking for more? Our Hard / Detailed and Mandala coloring pages pair nicely with this Advanced Designs page.
