What to Use for Coloring
You can use pretty much anything to color your hedgehog drawings:
- Crayons: Great for younger kids. They’re easy to use and come in lots of colors.
- Colored Pencils: Perfect for adding details and blending colors.
- Markers: Awesome for bold and bright colors, but be careful, they can bleed through the paper.
- Watercolors: If you’re feeling a bit more artistic, watercolors can give your hedgehog a cool, textured look.
Picking Your Colors
Hedgehogs come in various shades, mostly browns, grays, and creams. But since these are your hedgehogs, you can get creative! Here are some ideas:
- Realistic Hedgehogs: Use browns and grays for their quills, and a soft peach or light brown for their faces and tummies.
- Cartoon Hedgehogs: Go wild with bright colors! Purple quills, green bodies—there are no rules here.
Fun Fact About Hedgehogs
Did you know that a group of hedgehogs is called an "array"? How cool is that! They also have about 5,000 to 7,000 quills on their back. When you're coloring the quills, think about how these tiny spikes protect them from predators—maybe even add some extra detail to make them look spiky and strong.
Inspiration from Popular Hedgehog Characters
If you’re looking for some inspiration, think about some famous hedgehogs:
- Sonic the Hedgehog: The speedy blue hero from video games. He’s got bright blue fur, red shoes, and a big attitude.
- Mrs. Tiggy-Winkle: From Beatrix Potter’s stories, she’s a friendly, old hedgehog washerwoman. She’s often depicted with an apron and a bonnet.
Get Creative!
Remember, there’s no right or wrong way to color your hedgehog. Maybe give your hedgehog a fun background—like a sunny garden, a cozy autumn scene, or even a nighttime forest. Add flowers, mushrooms, or anything else you like.
We’d love to see your finished hedgehogs! Ask your parents to take a picture and share it with us #paintnarium. Happy coloring!
