Smartivity Dinosaur Adventure Colouring Sheets – Review

 I don’t know what’s with young boys and dinosaurs..is it because it’s George pig’s favourite toy or some other reason, my toddler loves dinosaurs too! He has a toy dinosaur that walks and roars and lights up, he also has a dinosaur PJ set, and a George pig soft-toy holding a dinosaur. So when a package from Smartivity Edge arrived home and there were dinosaur colouring sheets inside, you can imagine the excitement!


Now, these are not your ordinary colouring sheets, no! Once the kid is done colouring the dinosaurs (the pack comes with 10 sketch pens or you can colour them with crayons or colour pencils that you have); make these dinosaurs come to life via the Smartivity Edge app! We have reviewed another AR based toy earlier on the blog, but this one is a little different because you have to first colour the dino, and when you scan the sheet – the dino comes alive with the same colours that you coloured it with! (Yes, you can try having a pink or blue dino if you wish). I think it’s absolutely cool to have your artwork be breathed life into, thanks to technology.

It’s a great way to teach kids about the different species of our pre-historic extinct friend. They have a lot of other age-according themes to choose from like – Wonders of the world, underwater adventure, jungle safari (these are for the age group of 3+ year old kids, which is the range suitable for my toddler). For older kids, they have a lot more to offer – you can check it out on their website.
Price ranging from Rs.249 onwards, I think this makes a great gift to your kid or to give to other kids as a birthday gift!


You do have to be careful while colouring, if dark colours are used near the outlines - it may not work or get scanned on the app - so I think it's better to use crayons or colour pencils instead of sketch pens. I would recommend them to replace sketch pens with crayons/colour pencils.

  4. Sand paper is utilized to scratch off paint where you need more white, and concealing tape is helpful to cover regions that you will either leave white or paint later on. In the event that you need to make milder impacts, a standard spread blade can scratch paint.
