About This Three-Horned Triceratops Coloring Page

Isn't it fun to color a Three Horned Triceratops and imagine walking with dinosaurs? This printable brings a friendly Triceratops into your home or classroom, complete with plants and a volcano backdrop to spark stories. Talk about the three horns and the big frill while kids choose colors, imagine how the dinosaur used its horns for protection, and create names for their Triceratops. For a classroom center, pin finished pages to a bulletin board for a prehistoric parade, or have small groups add habitat details and present a short story. At home, this makes a great rainy day activity and you can pair it with a dinosaur book or a short video for extra inspiration. For a creative extension, ask children to write a two sentence adventure about their Triceratops or cut out the figure and make a puppet. This printable is free and easy to share, and it encourages imagination, storytelling, and joyful coloring time.

Coloring Tips & Techniques

Use a mix of earthy greens and browns for the body, and add lighter cream or pale green on the belly to show roundness. Color the frill with stripes of orange and yellow to make it stand out, and shade gently along the legs and under the belly to add depth and a round look. Try soft strokes around the horns with gray and white highlights to show shine and make the horns look smooth.
