About this coloring page

This coloring page features a cute, friendly long-neck dinosaur standing and holding a single leaf in its mouth. The dinosaur has a big, happy eye, a gentle smile, and three spots on its back. Its long neck curves gracefully, and it has sturdy little legs with simple toes.

With its bold, thick outlines and large, open spaces, this sheet is perfect for toddlers and preschoolers. The simple shapes make it easy for little hands to color within the lines without getting overwhelmed by tiny details.

While coloring, you can talk about what dinosaurs ate. This long-neck dinosaur is a herbivore, which means it only ate plants like leaves, ferns, and twigs. You can discuss how their long necks helped them reach the very tops of tall trees to find the best food.

Learn while you color

Stegosaurus had a brain about the size of a walnut, small for an animal as big as a bus.
Some long-neck sauropods, such as Argentinosaurus, were among the largest land animals that ever lived.
Scientists learned that some dinosaurs had reddish-brown or striped colors by studying tiny structures in fossil feathers.

Coloring tips for this page

Use chunky crayons or thick markers: the big shapes are made for them.
For a realistic look, use greens and browns like modern reptiles and add a lighter belly.
Color the background last: a blue sky, an orange volcano glow or green jungle makes the dinosaur stand out.
Use two shades of the same color on the body, the darker one along the back and the lighter one underneath.
