Tips for Parents and Teachers

Print multiple copies of the same dinosaur so children can experiment with different color palettes, like making a blue T-Rex or a rainbow Stegosaurus.
Use heavier cardstock paper instead of regular printer paper if your kids love using paints, markers, or watercolor pencils.
Turn the finished coloring pages into DIY dinosaur puppets by cutting out the colored dinosaurs and taping them to craft sticks.
Incorporate learning by talking about the names, diets, and habitats of each dinosaur while your child colors.
