About this coloring page
A friendly baby dragon sits on its back legs with its wings spread wide on each side. It has big shiny eyes, a happy open-mouth smile, small horns and spikes on its head, and spots on its body. Stripes run down its belly, and a long tail with pointed spikes curls around its feet.
Coloring ideas
Dragons can be any color: classic green, fiery red, ocean blue or a purple and gold combination. Color the belly stripes in a lighter shade, and make the wings a different color with darker lines along the ribs. Add a cave, a pile of treasure or a castle in the background.
Skills practiced
Dragons appear in stories and folktales from many countries, which makes a nice link to reading. Ask children to describe their dragon using adjectives (scaly, friendly, tiny, brave), or count the spots and stripes and compare which number is bigger.
Printing tips
The wing sections are medium-sized, so crayons work for younger kids and colored pencils give older kids more control. Pair it with the castle page for a dragon and castle story set.
