Dinosaur colouring books for kids

Fun dinosaur colouring activities for children

Dinosaurs make great subjects for colouring because their worlds can be anything a child imagines. Think green stegosauruses, bright purple dinosaurs, volcanic landscapes or a friendly dinosaur exploring a campsite. JBL Colours' Dinosaur Days & Prehistoric Play includes 104 illustrations and is described for ages 4–8 in our collection.

Children can start by choosing just three colours for one picture, then try a completely different palette for the next. Grown-ups can help younger colourers with fine details while leaving plenty of room for experimentation.

Three ways to make dinosaur colouring more fun

• Name the dinosaur and give it a favourite food.
• Draw a background story: is it a jungle, volcano or dinosaur campsite?
• Use the finished picture as the starting point for a two-minute story together.
