Forest Friend's First Ride: A Zentangle Squirrel Adventure

Fun Fact

Did you know that squirrels are excellent tree climbers and often bury their food, like nuts and seeds, helping new trees to grow in the forest? They sometimes forget where they buried them, which is a great way for nature to plant new life!

Coloring Tips

1. 1🎨 Zentangle Wheels - Use fine-tipped markers or colored pencils to carefully fill in the intricate leaf and vine zentangle patterns on the tricycle wheels. Try using different shades of green for a natural, lush look.
2. 2🖍️ Fluffy Fur - Give the squirrel a truly fluffy look by using short, feathery strokes with your crayons or pencils. Layer light browns, grays, and even a touch of cream to create depth and texture in its fur.
3. 3✨ Sun-Dappled Light - To create the magical sun-dappled effect, use light yellow or pale orange in small, irregular patches on the path and some leaves. Leave other areas darker to show the beautiful shadows from the trees.
4. 4🌈 Geometric Foliage - For the whimsical background foliage, experiment with a vibrant palette! Use contrasting colors for different geometric shapes within the leaves to make them pop and feel truly magical and unique.
