Cheerful Opossum Hangs From a Tree

Meet a playful opossum as it swings upside down, using its special tail to hold onto a swaying tree branch. This little friend loves taking in the view from up high and is always curious about the world below. Imagine what the forest looks like around the opossum—maybe there are colorful flowers, buzzing insects, or even a bright blue sky. What else might you add to the scene?

FUN FACT

Opossums do not hibernate in winter; they remain active but may stay in their dens during very cold weather.

COLORING TIPS

Try blending two shades of gray for the opossum’s fur to give it some fluff. Use light green for the leaves and experiment with crayon or colored pencil for extra texture in the tree bark. You can add little details in the background to make the scene lively.
