Meet the three-horned star of our collection: this free triceratops coloring page has a big bony frill, two long brow horns, a short nose horn and a wide happy smile. The shapes are chunky and well separated — frill, face, body, feet — so it’s simple to color without anything getting fiddly.
Who this page is for
Ages 3–8. The frill is a perfect spot for preschoolers to practice a pattern (dots, stripes, zigzags), while younger kids can simply block in the body and horns.
Dinosaur facts to share while you color
- “Triceratops” means “three-horned face” — and you can count all three on this page.
- Its frill could be over two meters across, and scientists think it was used to show off to other triceratops as much as for protection.
- Triceratops was a plant-eater with a beak like a parrot for snipping tough leaves.
Make it an activity
Ask your child to give each horn a different color, then decorate the frill with a repeating pattern — a sneaky way to practice sequencing (red-blue-red-blue) while they color.
