Coloring Tips
- Start coloring the small dinosaur's skin with light green as a base, then add shadows on the back and tail tip with dark green for depth.
- For utensils and plates, use silver or light gray, leaving highlights for a metallic look.
- Choose a checkered or striped pattern for the tablecloth—paint a light base first, then add darker patterns once dry.
- For the cup, use light blue for a semi-transparent effect, slightly darkening the rim and base.
- Highlight the tiptoe stance by adding faint shadows under the feet for a more dynamic pose.
Fun Facts
- Did you know? Some dinosaurs, like modern birds, used forelimbs (tiny arms) to grasp things—scientists think they were more agile than we imagined!
- A T. rex’s tail was incredibly powerful, helping it balance—just like this little dinosaur using its tail to stand steady.
- The earliest utensils appeared ~5,000 years ago, made of wood and bone—long after the age of dinosaurs!
- Fossil studies suggest some dinosaurs were warm-blooded, like humans, regulating their own body heat.
- Table manners are a hallmark of human civilization, but dinosaurs weren’t so polite—they tore into food directly!
