Cute Koala

Meet this cheerful young koala, a gentle Australian tree climber with huge fluffy ears, a big oval nose, soft fur and strong paws wrapped safely around a eucalyptus branch. Children can colour the coat silver-grey, warm grey or soft brown-grey, then use white or pale cream on the fluffy chest, belly and inner ears. Try charcoal or black for the nose, dark grey for the little claws, and a touch of pink inside the ears. Colour the eucalyptus leaves blue-green, olive or fresh green, the branch warm brown, the flowers in bright happy colours, the grass green, the stones warm grey, and the clouds pale blue. Work slowly inside the bold lines, keep tiny white eye highlights, and add butterflies, gum nuts, sunshine or distant trees in the open spaces.
