How to color the Stegosaurus with plates coloring page

Count the plates before starting — there are twelve, and knowing the number changes how a child plans the page. Two colours taken in turn is the simplest pattern that still looks deliberate; running one colour from pale at the nose to dark at the tail is harder and worth trying once the alternating version is familiar. Because each plate is closed and small, this is also a page that survives being put down mid-way: the next plate is always an obvious place to restart.
