Little Parasaurolophus's Fern Forest Discovery

Fun Fact

Did you know that Parasaurolophus had a long, hollow crest on its head? Scientists think it might have used this amazing crest like a trumpet to make loud sounds to talk to other dinosaurs, or even to help it breathe!

Coloring Tips

1. 1🎨 Texture Time - Use short, overlapping strokes to give the ferns a leafy, realistic texture. Try different shades of green for depth.
2. 2🖍️ Layered Leaves - Color the background ferns in lighter, softer greens and blues, making the large foreground frond pop with richer, darker greens and even some brown accents.
3. 3✨ Dino Details - Give our little Parasaurolophus scales by using very small, circular motions with your crayons or pencils. Add soft pinks or oranges to its cheeks for a cute, warm glow.
4. 4🌈 Shadow Play - Imagine where the light is coming from and add subtle shadows under the ferns and on the dinosaur's tummy to make the scene look three-dimensional and cozy.
