About these squirrel coloring pages

Bushy tails and busy paws fill these squirrel coloring pages, from a kawaii squirrel to a red squirrel nibbling a pine cone in the snow. Ages 3 to 5 can color the kawaii squirrel or a squirrel climbing headfirst down a tree. Kids ages 6 to 8 get a squirrel burying an acorn and the red squirrel on a snowy pine branch, and ages 9 and up can peek into a leafy nest in an oak tree or join a tiny Thanksgiving feast.

Teens and adults can try the acorn mandala and a detailed squirrel on a mossy stump. On an autumn walk, collect a few acorns and pine cones, then set them on the table as models while kids color the fall pages.

Also in thanksgiving coloring pages, fall coloring pages, winter coloring pages, cute coloring pages and kawaii coloring pages.

Squirrel facts to share

  1. Squirrels bury nuts to eat later, and the ones they forget can sprout into new trees.
  2. A squirrel can turn its back feet around, which lets it climb down a tree headfirst.
  3. Tree squirrels build round nests of leaves and twigs, called dreys, high in the branches.

Color idea: Mix silver gray and soft brown for gray squirrels or russet orange for red squirrels, give the tail paler tips, and fill the fall scenes with orange, gold and red leaves.

Squirrel coloring page questions

Which squirrel pages fit Thanksgiving and fall?

Try the squirrels sharing a tiny Thanksgiving feast at a tree-stump table, the squirrel burying an acorn beside a pumpkin and the leafy nest in an oak tree. The acorn and pinecone mandala works for fall too.

Which squirrel pages suit preschoolers?

The easy kawaii squirrel with a fluffy tail and the squirrel climbing headfirst down a tree trunk. Each has a single big squirrel and almost no background, which suits ages 3 to 5.

What colors are squirrels?

Gray squirrels are silvery gray with a white belly, and red squirrels are russet orange with a cream belly and tufted ears. Fox squirrels mix orange and gray, and some gray squirrels are completely black, so kids have plenty of real options.
