Bruno’s Treetop Snack
Bruno the Brachiosaurus has spotted delicious leaves far above the ground. Luckily, his amazingly long neck lets him reach up toward the highest branches! This gentle giant is enjoying a sky-high snack while standing near the tree. Color Bruno’s big body, his long neck, and the leafy branches around him. Maybe the leaves are fresh spring green, or perhaps they have turned golden for autumn.
Color a Gentle Giant
Try warm brown or mossy green for Bruno, with darker spots along his neck and back. His underside can be light tan or pale yellow. Use several greens for the leaves: dark green in the shade and lime green where sunshine touches them. The tree trunk could be brown with gray bark lines. For a playful scene, add a blue sky and white clouds behind Bruno’s towering head.
Brachiosaurus Facts for Kids
Brachiosaurus was a plant-eating dinosaur that lived during the Jurassic Period. Its front legs were longer than its back legs, which helped give its body a sloping shape. Its long neck made it easier to browse for leaves high above the ground. Even though it was huge, Brachiosaurus had a relatively small head. Scientists use fossil bones to learn how these ancient animals may have moved and eaten.
