About this printable

Keep this dinosaur gentle: a long neck, round head, and a row of small back plates, not rows of teeth. This how to draw a dinosaur for kids printable is a friendly plant-eater a child might invent for a story. Draw the body bean first so the neck has somewhere to attach. Legs are straight lines that meet the ground. Spikes are triangles, easy to count. Museums and library books can sit nearby, but the page does not copy any film creature. If the tail droops, lift the curve in a second pass. Ages five to ten can name the dinosaur after they finish. Add grass ticks under the feet. Print extra copies for siblings who want different plate patterns along the back.
