Coloring Tips
- Start with large areas: Paint the picnic blanket and dinosaur first to quickly establish the overall color scheme.
- Use contrasting colors: Differentiate the dinosaur and teddy bear with distinct colors, like a green dinosaur paired with a brown/gold bear.
- Layer sandwich colors: Use light brown for the bread and pink (ham) or yellow (cheese) for the fillings to add dimension.
- Save small details for last: Leave intricate parts like sesame seeds on sandwiches or picnic blanket patterns until the end.
- Create a cozy vibe: Use soft pastels (e.g., light blue blanket, pale yellow sandwiches) for a playful picnic scene.
Fun Facts
- Did you know? Dinosaurs and bears lived in completely different eras—dinosaurs roamed 65 million years ago, while the earliest bears appeared 30 million years ago. They could never have actually met for a picnic!
- The sandwich is named after the English nobleman, the Earl of Sandwich, who reportedly didn’t want to leave his card game and asked for meat between bread slices.
- The word "picnic" comes from the French "pique-nique," originally referring to a meal where everyone brought food to share.
- Teddy bears are named after U.S. President Theodore "Teddy" Roosevelt, who once refused to shoot a bear cub during a hunt.
- Scientists now believe some dinosaurs may have been warm-blooded, like the mammals teddy bears represent, rather than cold-blooded reptiles as once thought.
