Activities to Do With Koala Coloring Pages
Turn your coloring session into a full afternoon of fun with these creative activity ideas.
Create a 3D Koala Habitat
Use a shoebox to create a diorama of the Australian outback. Color and cut out the koalas from the pages, then glue them onto cardboard stands. Place them inside the shoebox along with real twigs, leaves, and green construction paper to mimic eucalyptus trees.
Koala Mask Party
Choose one of the close-up koala faces and color it in. Carefully cut out the face and the eyes. Punch small holes on the sides and attach a string or elastic band. Now the kids can pretend to be koalas for the day.
Texture Collage
Instead of just coloring with crayons, use different materials to fill in the picture. Glue gray cotton balls or gray yarn onto the koala’s body to make it look fluffy. You can also glue real dried leaves onto the tree branches in the background.
Fact Sheet Poster
Paste the finished coloring page onto a larger piece of poster board. Have your child research fun facts about koalas, such as what they eat or where they live. Write these facts around the colored image to create an educational poster for their room.
Koala Storytelling
Cut out several koalas and stick them onto popsicle sticks to make puppets. Paint a simple background on a piece of paper. Use the puppets to tell a story about a koala’s adventure in the forest, inventing names and voices for each character.
FAQs
Are Koalas Bears?
No, they are not. While people often call them “koala bears,” they are actually marsupials. This means they carry their young in a pouch, similar to kangaroos.
What Colors Should I Use for Koalas?
Koalas typically have brownish-grey or silver-grey fur. You can use white for their chest and ear tufts, and black for their nose. However, feel free to use any colors you like for a creative twist.
What Do Koalas Eat?
Koalas are very picky eaters. They feed almost exclusively on eucalyptus leaves. Since these leaves can be toxic to other animals, koalas have a special digestive system to handle them.
Where Do Koalas Live in the Wild?
Koalas are native to Australia. They live in the eucalyptus forests along the eastern and southeastern coasts of the country.
Can I Use Watercolors on These Pages?
Yes, you can. If you plan to use watercolors or heavy markers, we recommend printing the pages on cardstock or thick paper to prevent the paint from bleeding through.
Why Do Koalas Sleep So Much?
Koalas sleep for up to 18 to 22 hours a day. This is because their diet of eucalyptus leaves provides very little energy, so they need plenty of rest to conserve it.
