How to Draw: Robot Dinosaurs

How to Draw: Robot Dinosaurs is an art activity for children who want to construct mechanical dinosaurs themselves, using a sequence of six drawing stages.

The activity experience

The meeting of machines and prehistoric creatures adds an inventive twist to a dinosaur activity. The How to Draw format is intended for ages 5 and up, with the character built in stages and a dedicated drawing page for practice.

The activity has a clear first task—make the pencil picture—and an optional second one: decorate the finished work. Color can give the drawing a new mood, while a setting or small added object can extend the idea. Decide what special task the mechanical dinosaur could perform in its imaginary world.

This is a good format to consider when a child asks how mechanical dinosaurs are made rather than simply wanting an outline to color. The steps provide a route into the drawing, and the completed character can become the beginning of a larger art project.
