Penguins stay cozy and warm in chilly ocean waters because they have special feathers that keep the cold out and fat under their skin that acts like a warm jacket. This helps them not feel cold, even when the water is icy!

Another way to say this is: Penguins have thick, fluffy feathers and a soft layer of fat underneath their skin that help keep their bodies warm when they swim in cold places.
