Free T-rex & Palm Tree Dinosaur Colouring Sheet for Kids

Description

Bring the roar of the prehistoric world into your classroom, home or homeschool space with this fun, easy-to-print colouring sheet featuring a friendly T-rex in a palm-tree landscape! Perfect for dinosaur enthusiasts, this activity combines creative fun with a little bit of learning about one of the most famous dinosaurs of all time.

What’s Inside

Here’s what children will dive into with this colouring sheet:

• A cheerful outline of a T-rex dinosaur, ready for imaginative colouring

• A background scene with palm trees, rocks, a flying pterosaur and clouds — great for adding extra details and context

• Large, bold outlines that make the sheet suitable for preschoolers and early primary children

• Plenty of open space for kids to choose their own colours and even add patterns or extra background elements

Why It’s Useful

• Builds fine motor skills: Colouring inside the lines helps develop hand-eye coordination and control.

• Encourages creativity: Children can decide the dinosaur’s colour, the sky’s hue, and whether the pterosaur is blue, green or even pink!

• Engages interest in dinosaurs: A T-rex is instantly recognisable and appealing to many kids, making this sheet a great way to capture their attention.

• Flexible for use: Great for a quiet afternoon activity, a classroom centre, or part of a dinosaur unit.

• Low prep for teachers/parents: Just print and go!

Instructions: How to Use

1. Print the sheet on A4 or US-Letter size paper.

2. Ask each child to choose their colouring medium — crayons, coloured pencils, markers or even watercolor (if the paper supports it).

3. Encourage colour choices: Maybe the T-rex is green, purple or rainbow! Maybe the background is sunset orange or leafy tropical green.

4. After colouring, give children the option to add extra details — spots on the dinosaur, a volcano, extra plants, or a dinosaur footprint trail.

5. Display the finished work — hang it on a wall or fridge, use it as part of a dinosaur display board or even turn it into a card or poster.

6. (Optional) Have a short discussion: “What do you think the T-rex might have eaten? Where did it live? Why do you think the palm trees are in the picture?” This adds a light learning touch about dinosaurs and their habitats.

This simple but fun colouring sheet makes learning and creativity go hand in hand. Whether you’re planning a dinosaur-themed lesson, looking for a quiet activity at home, or just want a printable that’s ready to go — print the sheet, pass out the colours, and let the prehistoric fun begin! Don’t forget to display the masterpieces proudly and let your little paleontologists show off their colouring skills!
