Dragon Building a Castle Coloring Page

About this page

Leaning in over a pile of toy blocks, a young dragon lifts a cube with both front paws as if about to place it on top of a little castle. The castle sits at the lower right and has two towers with pointed cone roofs, a central arched gate and stacked square blocks between them. The dragon looks toward the build with a satisfied smile. It has ringed horns, spiky ridges behind the head, wings spread on both sides and a scalloped tail on the left. The ground is an oval patch with a couple of grass tufts. Straight block edges contrast with the dragon's round body, which makes the page tidy and readable. Medium-sized shapes and a clear focus suit kids who like building toys.
