Cute Kangaroo

Meet this cheerful young kangaroo, a lively Australian grassland friend with tall ears, bright eyes, a roomy pouch, powerful hind feet and a long balancing tail. Children can colour the coat warm brown, sandy tan, golden beige or soft grey, then use a lighter cream shade for the muzzle, chest, belly and pouch. Try pink inside the ears, dark brown for the nose and claws, and a slightly deeper shade along the tail. Add fresh greens to the grass and leafy bush, bright colours to the flowers, and pale blue to the clouds. Colour slowly inside the thick lines, leave a few white highlights, and draw sunshine, butterflies, gum leaves or distant hills in the open spaces.
