Smiling Dinosaur with Birthday Cake and Gift Coloring Page

About this coloring picture

A young dinosaur sits upright with its legs stretched out in front, grinning under a cone-shaped party hat topped with a round pom-pom. This dinosaur with birthday cake coloring page puts the cake at the center: a round cake on a footed stand, with wavy icing, banded sides, and three tall candles that each carry a small flame. A wrapped gift with a looped bow sits on the right, and the curved tail sweeps up on the left.

The large shapes are friendly to fill in: the hat, the body, the tail, and the gift box all have open spaces. For color, you could try a green dinosaur with a red hat and a blue gift, or a teal dinosaur with a yellow hat and a pink cake. A purple dinosaur with an orange hat would stand out against a green bow. The feet need the most patience. Each has small toe shapes and an oval pad on the sole, so try coloring the toes one shade and the pad a lighter one. The candle flames are tiny, so color them first while your pencil tip is sharp.

Crayons suit the hat, gift, and body. Colored pencils or fine-tip markers are better for the candle flames, the eyes, and the thin lines on the cake. Once it is colored, ask what flavor the cake might be and what could be inside the gift. You can also count the candles and invent a name for the dinosaur and a birthday wish to go with them.
