CALLING PARASAUROLOPHUS #8

🦕 Parasaurolophus 🦖 Realistic 🕰️ Jurassic 🦕 Herbivore 🦕

The crest curls back from this dino's head in one tight spiral, and its mouth is open wide with a few lines drawn above the snout to show it calling out. One front foot is lifted mid-step while the round-eyed Parasaurolophus stands on the other three. Ovals of different sizes cover its back and tail. Behind it, a volcano sends up a rounded cloud, flanked by palm trees hung with coconuts and ferns whose fronds curl into tight spirals, with boulders and grass tufts filling the foreground. This coloring page mixes scales: the face and the spiral ferns call for a steady hand and small strokes, while the belly, the volcanic cloud and the palm leaves give wide, flat spaces that fill in fast. Younger children can stay on the dino's body and leave the swirled ferns for later, while older ones will enjoy following every curl. Plan on about thirty minutes to finish the whole scene. Color the spiral ferns before the coloring hand rests on the dino's body, so the curls don't smudge under your palm. Print this printable on A4 paper of at least 120gsm so felt-tip colors don't bleed through.
