Baby Dino

Why do museums have old dinosaur bones?

Because they can't afford new ones! :-)

The word dinosaur comes from the Greek language and means ‘terrible lizard’. The word was coined by English paleontologist Richard Owen in 1842 and was meant to refer to Dinosaurs impressive size rather than their scary appearance.

To start with lets draw a baby dinosaur.

• To start making face write a C and then L as shown.
• Join free end of C and L together with  I.
• Then write another C( a flat one) in front and a small C in back.Write another C starting at free end of L.

• Join free lower end of C we made  for face and C with curved I.
• Now write 11 for fore leg and hind leg. Just make second one of 11 a little longer than first one.
• Join the two free ends of 11 with C.
• Write another set of small Cs as shown.

• Join free end of small C to body of dinosaur with I.
• Write J to start making tail.
• Join free end of J and the tip of hind leg with turned around C.
• Put two dots for eyes, and write horizontal I for mouth.
• Write a couple of Os in body of dinosaur and our dinosaur is now ready to roar.
