Otter Holding a Shell
Ollie the otter has discovered a lovely shell during his swim. He balances it on his tummy so he can examine every little curve. The water gently rocks him like a cradle. Add cheerful colors to Ollie’s relaxing river adventure!
Ollie’s Floating Shell Check
Ollie is drifting on his back with a beautiful shell resting on his tummy. The shell has curvy edges and lines that are fun to color slowly. Is Ollie looking for a tiny creature inside, or simply admiring his beachy treasure? You can turn the water around him into a quiet river, a sparkling bay, or a gentle ocean cove. Add ripples around his body to show how softly he is floating.
Ocean Colors for Ollie
Try medium brown for Ollie’s fur, with a lighter tan muzzle and tummy. His little nose can be dark brown or black. Shells come in many colors, so choose creamy white with pink stripes, sandy beige with brown swirls, or lavender with blue lines. Color the water turquoise, blue, or green-blue, then add white curved marks for ripples. Seaweed in the background can be green, olive, or golden brown.
Otter Swimming Facts
Otters are excellent swimmers and can paddle with their webbed feet. Their thick fur traps air close to their bodies, helping keep them warm in chilly water. Some otters float on their backs while eating or resting. Sea otters may use rocks to crack open hard food such as shellfish. Otters also have long whiskers that help them notice movements in the water, even when they cannot see very well.
