Squeaky's Treasure fall Coloring Pages for Ages 3-5

Coloring page story

Squeaky the squirrel was getting ready for winter. Crunch, crunch, crunch went his paws on the dry leaves. He needed one more perfect acorn for his nest. He looked everywhere! Under a mushroom? No. Inside a log? No. He was about to give up when he saw it—a huge, bumpy, brown treasure! He pushed it and rolled it all the way home. Heave! Ho! But when he tried to crack it... it wasn't an acorn! (Unexpected Twist) It was a giant pinecone! All his squirrel friends came to see. They couldn't eat it, but they decided it was the most beautiful decoration for their neighborhood, and they nibbled the tiny seeds from its scales together.
