Kangaroos Pause for a Cool Drink
In the shade by a sparkling waterhole, a gentle kangaroo and her joey stop to sip and enjoy the peaceful bushland. Nearby, trees sway quietly and an emu strolls by under the wide Australian sky. What colors will you choose for the sunlit grass, the tall trees, and the reflections in the water? Imagine the story these kangaroos would tell after such a quiet moment together.
FUN FACT
Young male kangaroos might leave their birth mob when they are about 1.5 to 2 years old to find their own way.

COLORING TIPS
Use light browns and oranges for the kangaroos, and try blending shades gently for their fur. For the reflections in the water, use paler versions of the main colors and add ripples with light blue. Try mixing greens and yellows for lively grass and use a deeper blue for the sky, leaving some spots white for clouds.
