(Source: https://www.itsybitsyfun.com/penguin-facts-for-kids.html)
- Penguins are flightless birds.
- They have feathers.
- Their wings evolved into flappers.
- Their black and white color serves as camouflage when in water. When predators look at them from bellow they see white and they blend with the water surface and when seen from above they blend with the deep blue.
- They live in the Southern Hemisphere almost exclusively. The Galapagos penguin is the only one that lives north from the equator.
- Emperor penguin is the tallest and Little Blue penguin is the smallest.
- Diving penguins reach average speeds of 6 to 12 kmh / 3.7 to 7.5 mph and can swim even faster when startled.
- Their sliding on their bellies on the snow is called “tobogganing”.
- They can drink salt water.
- Polar bears and penguins don’t live together (bears are on the North Pole).
