Squirrel On A Tree Stump Coloring Page

A squirrel sits on a tree stump holding an acorn in both front paws. Its tail sweeps up behind its back with soft fur points along the edge, and it faces left with one round eye and two small ears. The stump below carries growth rings across its cut top and long bark lines down its side. Toadstools, leaves, and grass sit around the base. Growth rings make this page quietly useful. Every ring is one year of the tree's life, and counting them with a child turns a coloring sheet into a short lesson about how old a tree was when it came down. The rings also color beautifully, alternating light and dark from the center outward. The squirrel is the simpler half of the page. One tone across the body and a slightly darker one on the tail is all it needs. The acorn in its paws is tiny and makes a satisfying last touch. Print this one in the weeks when real squirrels are busy doing exactly the same thing in the yard.
