Stegosaurus Colouring Page

Meet Stegosaurus stenops, a fascinating prehistoric dinosaur with two neat rows of large upright back plates and exactly four long spikes at the end of its tail. The simple scene places it among low ferns, a conifer and rounded stones, leaving plenty of open space for young artists. Try olive green, golden brown or soft blue; contrasting orange or red plates. Children can also invent a brand-new dinosaur palette and give the prehistoric plants their own shades. Colour the body first, repeat a simple pattern across the plates, and keep the four tail spikes pale at their tips. Start with the biggest body shapes, use lighter pressure near small details, and enjoy bringing this ancient world to life!
