Koala on a Branch
Kiki the koala has chosen her favorite branch for a rest. She hugs it tightly while her fuzzy ears twitch in the breeze. Soon she may drift off and dream of a leafy picnic. Give Kiki a cozy look with all your favorite colors!
Kiki’s Cozy Tree Rest
Kiki has found a sturdy branch that is just right for relaxing. She hugs it with her paws, while her fluffy ears listen to the breeze in the leaves. Maybe she is awake and watching the world below, or maybe she is nearly ready for a nap. Give her tree a tall trunk and a leafy canopy. You can even add a friendly bird sitting on another branch nearby to keep Kiki company.
Color a Eucalyptus Tree
Koalas are often colored gray, but you can make Kiki light gray, silver, or even a gentle brown-gray. Her round ears look lovely with pale fluffy centers, and her nose can be dark charcoal. Use brown for the branch and trunk. Eucalyptus leaves are usually green or blue-green, so mixing both shades will make the tree look interesting. A light blue sky and puffy white clouds can create a peaceful place for Kiki to rest.
Koala Sleepy-Time Facts
Koalas live in Australia and spend most of their time in trees. They eat eucalyptus leaves, which do not give them much energy. That is one reason koalas sleep and rest for many hours each day, sometimes around 18 to 22 hours! Their strong claws help them climb and hold onto branches. Koalas are marsupials, which means baby koalas, called joeys, grow in their mother’s pouch when they are tiny.
