Pebble the penguin is trying on a wonderfully long scarf. It loops around his neck and nearly tickles his toes. He lifts his flippers and proudly shows it to all his friends. Color Pebbleβs scarf with a fun pattern of your own!
Pebble is proudly showing everyone his extra-long scarf. It loops around his neck and trails down toward his feet, making him look ready for a chilly walk. His raised flippers add to the happy pose, as if he is saying, βLook at my new scarf!β Will his scarf have stripes, dots, hearts, or tiny snowflakes? There is no wrong choice when you are designing an outfit for a very fashionable penguin.
Start with Pebbleβs classic black back and flippers, then leave his belly white. His beak and feet can be bright orange or golden yellow. Now make the scarf the star of the page! Choose red and green stripes, rainbow bands, or a blue scarf with white snowflake shapes. Use pale blue for icy ground and add darker blue shadows near his feet. A few light gray mountains in the background would make a frosty scene.
Penguins are birds, but they cannot fly through the air like most birds. Instead, their flippers help them zoom through water. Their feathers overlap tightly and help keep water away from their skin. Many penguins also have a layer of fat that helps them stay warm in cold places. Not every penguin lives in snowy Antarctica, though. Some kinds live in warmer places, including beaches and islands!
