🌿 Spike’s Favorite Things
- Munching low-to-the-ground ferns (yum!)
- Warming up in sunny meadows
- Comparing features with other dino friends
- Practicing my “turn sideways and look big” move
- Telling stories about how I swish my thagomizer tail
I’m Spike, a young and curious Stegosaurus with the most incredible set of plates you’ve ever seen! My warm olive-grey body and cool khaki belly are pretty awesome—but it’s my colorful, changing plates that make me stand out in the prehistoric crowd.
Wanna know a secret? My back plates change color depending on how I feel and how warm I am. Pretty cool, right? When I’m warm, they turn a deep rusty red, and when I’m cool, they shift back to pale sage. It’s like having built-in mood rings!
I may be a dino, but I’ve got big life lessons to share!
My story helps kids:
“My mom says my plates aren’t just cool—they make me brave, unique, and safe.”
Embrace what makes them unique.
Feel confident in who they are.
Learn how to protect themselves wisely.
Celebrate their differences with pride.
