Where coloring bookmarks earn their keep.
Free printable bookmarks for kids to color are the rare craft that's also useful afterward — these are the four places they get used most.
Nobody has ever agreed on what color a dinosaur actually was — which is exactly why coloring dinosaur bookmarks beat coloring almost anything else. A purple spinosaurus is scientifically unfalsifiable.— David, Apollo’s Templates
Coloring dinosaur bookmark questions.
Which dinosaurs can kids color?
Eight species across eighteen designs: T-Rex (roaring, baby, and volcano-scene), Triceratops, Stegosaurus, Spinosaurus, Velociraptor, Ankylosaurus, Pteranodon, the long-necked Plesiosaurus out at sea, and a hatching egg.
Are these dinosaur bookmarks free to print and color?
Yes — every design is free, with no account, watermark, or locked downloads. Print as many sheets as your classroom, library, or birthday party needs; the PDF is built in your own browser.
How is a coloring bookmark different from a regular dinosaur bookmark?
These are true black-and-white line art: every shape is white with a bold black outline at least as thick as a crayon stroke, so young children can color inside the lines. Many are line-art twins of our full-color dinosaur bookmarks — some classrooms print both and let kids compare their color choices with the original.
Where does the child's name go?
Every design has a name banner drawn into the artwork — a ribbon near the bottom of the bookmark. Type a name per bookmark and it prints inside that banner in your pick of four typefaces — Playfair, Tinos, Dancing Script or Prata — and the banner border itself is colorable too. The name is printed into the artwork rather than left as an editable field, so type it the way you want it printed.
What's the best paper for coloring bookmarks?
65–100 lb card stock — sturdy enough to survive crayon pressure and a school backpack. Regular printer paper works in a pinch (glue two coloring bookmarks back-to-back for stiffness). Print at 100% scale with 'fit to page' turned off.
