In this picture

A young stegosaurus sits with its front feet together and its tail curled around to the right. Large pointed plates rise along its back. Small oval spots run down the side beneath the plates, and curved bands divide the belly. The smiling face and open background keep attention on the animal rather than a surrounding scene.

easy difficulty
Large plates are roomy to fill, with smaller spots and toes beside the segmented belly.
Skills to try
  • Keeping plates separate from skin: Each pointed back plate has its own outline above the rounded body.
Suggested age: About 5–7 years
The broad body suits early coloring, with the small side spots adding a manageable challenge. This is a suggestion; comfort with the shapes matters more than age.
