Penguins have a special coat that helps them stay warm even when the water is very cold. This coat is made up of lots of tiny feathers that fit together like a snug jacket. Underneath the feathers, they have a thick layer of fat that acts like a warm blanket inside their bodies.

You can think of it like when you wear a puffy winter jacket to keep warm outside. Penguins wear their own 'jacket' made of feathers and fat to stay comfy and cozy in the chilly ocean!
