DoodleGrove Squirrel Coloring Pages
Bushy tails, full cheeks and plenty of acorns. The easiest pages are one big squirrel: holding an acorn, hugging a pine cone, nibbling a hazelnut on a tree stump or peeking out of a hollow tree. Then the squirrels get busy: burying acorns, gathering hazelnuts in a basket, hanging upside down at the bird feeder, watering a seedling and stuffing their cheeks with peanuts. Flying squirrels glide past the clouds and under the moon. Busier squirrel coloring sheets show a picnic in the park, a treehouse with a rope ladder, a walnut-shell boat on the pond, a nut stand, a winter pantry and two squirrels building a snowman. Two word pages, Go Nuts and Nuts About You, two mandalas and a pattern page finish the set. Every page prints on US Letter and on A4.

Easy Squirrels with Acorns and Pine Cones 8 pages
Fluffy tails curl up behind squirrels holding an acorn, hugging a pine cone or balancing a walnut on their heads. One peeks out of a stump and another sleeps curled up under the moon. Reddish brown or gray matches real squirrels, and the big shapes leave plenty of room for little hands.

Gathering Nuts, Seeds and Snacks 7 pages
Busy paws dig holes for acorns, drop hazelnuts into a basket and carry a strawberry bigger than a squirrel's head. Corn, sunflower seeds and a pumpkin with gourds turn up too, which ties these pages to an autumn harvest lesson. The winter pantry, packed with jars and sacks, has the most to color.

Leaping, Climbing and Flying Squirrels 7 pages
Squirrels are acrobats, and these pages show it: a leap over a picket fence, a tightrope walk, a climb up an oak and a twig carried to a leafy nest. Three flying squirrels show the flap of skin they use to glide, a handy detail to point out during a lesson on forest animals.

Squirrels in the Backyard Garden 6 pages
Birds keep these squirrels company at a birdbath, on a mossy rock and at a wooden feeder, where one hangs upside down to grab seeds. Others water a seedling and sniff tulips. Spring greens and soft pinks for the flowers suit these pages, and the fence scene with a shed is the busiest.

Winter and Christmas Squirrels 4 pages
Striped scarves come out for winter. One squirrel holds a pine cone on a snowy log, one rides a sled downhill, two build a snowman with acorn buttons and two hang acorn ornaments on a Christmas tree. Light blue shadows on white snow make the scarves stand out.

Picnics, Treehouses and Squirrel Adventures 9 pages
Full scenes with backgrounds give kids a longer project. A squirrel reads on a log, naps in a hammock, hikes past a blank signpost and rows a walnut-shell boat. Kids can write their own place name on the signpost. The treehouse and the nut stand with a bunny customer have the most detail.

Squirrel Word Pages, Mandalas and Patterns 5 pages
Go Nuts! and Nuts About You make cheerful bulletin board headers or a note tucked in a lunchbox. The pattern page repeats squirrel faces, acorns and hazelnuts, and the two round mandalas ring a squirrel and a flying squirrel with leaves, stars and moons. Gel pens or fine markers help with the tiny leaf shapes.
