About this coloring page
A smiling dinosaur with three horns, two long ones above its eyes and a short one on its nose, stands on four chunky legs. A wide, scalloped frill fans out behind its head like a shield, divided into sections. Its round body, short pointed tail and toes are drawn with thick, clear outlines.

Coloring ideas
The frill is the star of the page: color each section a different shade, or make a pattern of two colors around the edge. A warm tan or orange body with a darker frill looks great, and the horns can be cream or ivory. Try a mossy green dinosaur in a field of yellow flowers for something different.
Skills practiced
Counting horns (three!) and frill sections is a quick math moment, and the name triceratops means three-horned face, a fun word to break into parts. Comparing this dinosaur with the long-necked one helps children notice and describe differences.
Printing tips
This page has big shapes that suit crayons and younger children. Pair it with the dinosaur hatching page for a mini dinosaur pack, and save finished pages in a folder for a homemade dinosaur book.
