What typical colors does a giraffe have that my child could use?

Giraffes usually have light brown to ocher spots on a cream-colored or light yellow coat. Encourage your child to explore these earthy tones, but also let them experiment – it's a work of art, after all!

How do I explain the giraffe's spots in the realistic picture to my child?

Tell them that every giraffe has unique spots, like our fingerprints! These spots help them hide in the shade of trees. Your child can imagine coloring the spots so the giraffe is well camouflaged.

This picture shows a giraffe with a long neck. How can I convey the proportions to my child in an age-appropriate way?

Ask your child what the giraffe can reach with its long neck, for example, eating leaves from tall trees. Emphasize that the long neck makes it special. Coloring helps visually anchor this feature.

My child wants to color the giraffe in 'unrealistic' colors. Should I allow this or insist on realistic colors?

Let your child be creative! While the picture is designed realistically, the main focus of coloring is enjoyment and fostering creativity. You can first discuss the 'real' colors and then allow the giraffe to have pink spots too.
