Baby Elephant with a Flower
Ellie the elephant picked a tiny flower with the tip of her trunk. She lifts it high and gives it a careful sniff. The flower makes her smile from ear to ear. Color Ellie and her little gift to create a joyful picture!
Ellie’s Gentle Flower Sniff
Ellie is using the very tip of her trunk to hold a small flower. She looks curious and careful, as if she has found the nicest smell in the whole meadow. Her big ears and little feet make the flower seem even tinier! What color do you think the petals should be? You could draw more flowers around Ellie, along with tall grass, buzzing bees, and a warm sun shining above her.
Color a Sunny Elephant Meadow
Baby elephants can be gray, gray-brown, or a soft dusty brown. Color Ellie’s trunk, ears, and body with your chosen shade, then add a slightly darker shadow under her feet. Make the flower stand out with pink, purple, yellow, or red petals and a golden center. Bright green grass will frame the scene nicely. For a playful touch, color a butterfly near her trunk with two or three different colors on each wing.
Elephant Trunk Facts
An elephant’s trunk is a long nose that can do many amazing jobs. Elephants use it to smell, breathe, drink water, pick up food, and even give gentle touches. The tip of an elephant’s trunk is very sensitive, so it can pick up small things carefully. Baby elephants need time to learn how to control their trunks. Sometimes young elephants even trip over them while they are practicing!
