Starfish facts for kids
- Where it lives
- On the sea floor, from warm reefs to cold deep water.
- How big it is
- The size of your hand; the biggest are as wide as a plate.
- What it eats
- Shellfish and whatever it finds on the bottom.
- And also
- If a starfish loses an arm, it grows a new one.
What colours to use
Starfish are orange, red, purple, blue and even striped. Small dots along each arm make it look bumpy like a real one.
In the aquarium any colours work: the creature will swim exactly as your child coloured it.
Bring it to life
In the Live Aquarium app the same outline can be coloured on the screen with brushes, fills and stamps, and then it swims in a 3D aquarium, can be fed, petted and named. A printed and coloured sheet can be photographed in the app (with Plus).
