Nap Time for the Sleepy Porcupine

A chubby porcupine sinks into a cozy ball, his eyes gently closed and the tiniest smile curling across his nose. His round belly looks soft beneath a fortress of long, wiggly quills. With paws tucked close, he seems to hum his own quiet lullaby, dreaming of leafy forests and crunchy snacks.

Big quills fan out like a wild, spiky hairdo, but his ears stick out sweetly on each side. He sits peacefully, pressed into a little pile, feet peeking from underneath. There’s not a single worry in sight — just one very happy, very sleepy porcupine ready for a splash of color.

Fun Fact!

A porcupine needs to gnaw on tough things like bark and wood to keep its teeth worn down to a healthy length.

Coloring Tips

  1. 1 Use two browns for the quills—dark for some, light for others.
  2. 2 Give his nose a big, bold black or dark gray crayon.
  3. 3 Add a soft blush to his cheeks and paws for extra coziness.
  4. 4 Draw tiny grass or flowers around him if you want a forest touch.
