Out for a walk

Six pointed plates stand along this stegosaurus’s humped back, growing taller toward the middle, and the tail ends in four sharp spikes. The dinosaur faces left on four sturdy legs. Its near front and back legs are wide and rounded, with the two far legs showing just behind them, and a round eye with a black pupil and a curved smile give the oval head a cheerful look.

There are 17 parts on both versions. On the easy one the lines are bold, which helps ages 3 to 5 keep a crayon inside the large body and legs. The standard one, for ages 6 to 8, has thinner lines that suit colored pencils. The dinosaur stays centered, with white space left over for a background, when the A4 or US Letter PDF prints at 100 percent.

Frequently asked questions

How many parts are there to color?

There are 17: the head, the eye, the body and tail, six plates, four tail spikes and four legs.

Which version is right for a preschooler?

The easy version, made for ages 3 to 5. Its thick lines help keep a crayon inside the large body and legs.

Are all the plates the same size?

No. The six plates grow taller toward the middle of the back, so the shortest are the ones nearest the head and the tail.
