These squirrel patterns are simple black outlines of a friendly squirrel with a big curled tail, holding its paws together in front. There are two PDFs: a big version with one squirrel filling the page, and a small version with four matching squirrels on a page. The insides are blank, so the squirrels are ready to color, cut out or decorate.
Use these cute squirrel patterns or templates for coloring, crafts, counting, displays, learning activities and so much more. Choose from different sizes for your classroom needs.
Ways to use it
Fall craft: Have children color the big squirrel or cover it with torn brown and orange paper, then cut it out for a fall bulletin board.
Counting: Cut out the small squirrels and use them with real or paper acorns. Roll a die and give each squirrel that many acorns.
Name labels: Write a child’s name on each small squirrel for cubbies, a helper chart or a fall word wall.
Cutting practice: The big squirrel’s smooth outline is a good fit for children who are still learning to cut along a line.
Stencils: Print on cardstock and cut out the shapes so children can trace squirrels for their own art or stories.
Writing prompt: Pair a squirrel with a sentence starter like “My squirrel is hiding acorns in…” for a fall writing page.
