These t-rex coloring pages are among our most popular downloads, and I can see why. There’s something captivating about coloring the most famous dinosaur of all time.

Who doesn’t love those iconic spiky plates? Our Stegosaurus collection showcases these gentle giants in various poses and settings. From simple outlines perfect for preschoolers to detailed landscapes featuring multiple Stegosaurus families.

Dino Fun Fact: Brachiosaurus could grow up to 85 feet long and weigh as much as 12 elephants combined!
Pterodactyl Coloring Pages
Taking flight with prehistoric style! While technically a flying reptile (not a dinosaur), Pterodactyls are too cool to leave out. Our collection shows these magnificent creatures soaring over ancient landscapes.
Dino Fun Fact: Pterodactyls weren’t actually dinosaurs – they were flying reptiles called pterosaurs that lived alongside dinosaurs!
Velociraptor Coloring Pages
Small but mighty! These clever hunters capture kids’ imaginations with their intelligence and pack-hunting strategies. Our Velociraptor pages show them in action-packed scenes that’ll get little artists excited.
Dino Fun Fact: Real Velociraptors were only about the size of a turkey, much smaller than movies make them appear!

DIY Dinosaur Craft Idea: Paper Plate Stegosaurus
Transform an ordinary paper plate into a spiky Stegosaurus! Here’s how:
- Cut the plate in half – one half becomes the body, the other becomes spikes
- Create the spikes – cut triangular shapes from the second half
- Attach everything – staple or glue the spikes along the curved edge
- Add details – draw a face, legs, and tail
This simple craft uses materials you probably have at home and creates a 3D dinosaur that kids can play with after coloring! For more creative dinosaur craft ideas, check out PBS Kids for additional hands-on activities.
