Description
This dinosaur colouring poster spreads a whole prehistoric world across the table, ready for young artists to fill with colour. The Baby Dinos design packs the sheet with friendly cartoon dinosaurs among ferns, palms, rivers and rocks, with a smoking volcano in the distance and flying reptiles overhead. Every scale, spot and leaf is printed as a crisp black outline on white paper, waiting for whatever colours a child chooses. The poster measures about 1.15 metres long and 0.8 metres wide, and eight wooden colouring pencils come with it, so the set is ready to use straight from the box.
Because the sheet is so large, it suits a rainy afternoon at the kitchen table or a long stretch on the playroom floor, and more than one pair of hands can work on it at once. Brothers, sisters, cousins and friends can each take a corner and colour their way towards the middle, which makes it a lovely shared activity for a family day in. There are big, bold dinosaur shapes to fill quickly and plenty of fine detail, from spotted backs to leafy fronds, for anyone who likes to take their time. Once it is finished, the poster can go up on a bedroom wall as a proud piece of artwork.
The poster is paper and the pencils are wood, each about 17.5cm long and 0.7cm across. The eight shades run from pink, red, orange and yellow to light blue, navy and two greens, plenty for leafy ferns, blue water and bright dinosaur hides. The whole set packs into a slim box about 35.1cm long, 21.7cm wide and 1cm deep, and weighs just 0.17KG, so it slips easily into a bag for a visit to friends or family. Keep the poster dry and flat between sessions and a sharpener close by. Wrapped in its box, it makes a cheerful present that gets used straight away.
