Koala Family of Three in the Trees

Coloring guide
Two big koalas and one tiny one share a cozy spot where the tree branches meet in this detailed scene. The koala on the left has long eyelashes and one paw on a branch, and the one on the right leans on the trunk with a gentle smile. The baby sits between them holding a small eucalyptus leaf close to its chest. Fluffy round ears, big noses and soft fur give plenty of texture to color. Long eucalyptus leaves and clusters of gumnuts hang from the branches, and rows of leafy trees fill the background. Younger kids will like the large koala faces, and older children can spend time on the leaves and forest detail. Soft grays and lavender suit the fur, with fresh greens and a few warm browns for the leaves and gumnuts. It's free to print. Looking for more? Our Chameleon and Zebra coloring pages pair nicely with this Koala page.
