Nutty Hideout in the Hollow Tree

A bright-eyed squirrel peeks from her cozy round window in the middle of a tall, sturdy tree. Her tiny paws grip the wooden edge, and her whiskers twitch as she watches the world outside. Her fluffy tail curls high above her head, almost shimmering with every wispy line. Below her window, the ground is covered in a big, bumpy pile of acorns, walnuts, and crunchy leaves, as if someone threw a nutty party just for her.

The tree looks strong and wrinkled, perfect for a squirrel’s secret home. Acorns huddle together, their little hats snugly in place, and some leaves peek through, ready to be colored any way you like. The squirrel’s round cheeks make her look ready for stories and snacks. Every line invites a splash of color, so this scene feels just like a walk in the autumn woods.

Fun Fact!

This scatter-hoarding behavior helps a squirrel because if another animal finds one nut, the squirrel's whole food supply isn't gone.

Coloring Tips

  1. 1 Mix browns and reds for a squirrel with extra personality.
  2. 2 Try gentle shading for the fluffy tail to make it look soft.
  3. 3 Use many greens, oranges, and yellows on the leaves for a fall feeling.
  4. 4 Paint each nut a little differently for a treasure chest of colors.
