About these coloring pages

This set is for the child who corrects you when you call it a Brontosaurus. Each page shows one species the way scientists think it looked, feathers included where the fossils show them: Allosaurus, Carnotaurus, Therizinosaurus with its giant claws, four-winged Microraptor and more. The name is printed on the page, and the fact underneath is one a young expert can pass on at dinner.

Everything here is free for home and classroom use and prints on one Letter or A4 page. Looking for more? See dinosaur activities for teachers and families.

Tips for parents & teachers

  • Sound out the names together. Long dinosaur names are great practice at reading a word part by part.
  • Nobody knows what color most dinosaurs were, so there are no wrong choices.
  • Staple a few finished pages together to make a dinosaur field guide.
