Dolly the Diplodocus is learning how to roller-skate. Balancing a long neck and an even longer tail can be tricky, but she keeps trying. Give Dolly a fun look for her next smooth glide!
Dolly the Diplodocus is having a wobbly but wonderful skating practice. Her enormous neck reaches high, while her super-long tail stretches behind her like a balancing ribbon. Roller skates are tiny compared with a dinosaur, which makes this picture especially silly! Perhaps Dolly is gliding slowly across a smooth path, trying not to tip over. A happy face and bright skates will show that she is brave enough to keep practicing.
Give Dolly a soft purple, blue, or green body with spots along her neck and tail. Her roller skates could be cherry red with sunny yellow wheels, or choose rainbow colors for each wheel. Add a gray skating path beneath her feet so the wheels have somewhere to roll. Light green grass, pink flowers, and a bright blue sky can turn her practice spot into a cheerful dinosaur playground.
Diplodocus was one of the longest dinosaurs ever discovered. Its neck and tail were both very long, helping make its body look like a giant line. Even though it was huge, Diplodocus ate plants rather than meat. It used its small, peg-like teeth to pull leaves from branches. Fossils of Diplodocus have been found in North America, where it lived during the Late Jurassic period.
