Why Penguins' Black and White Colors Help Them Hide in Water for 6-Year-Olds

Simple explanation for kids on how penguins' black and white colors act like camouflage in water, making them hard to see from above and below.

Penguins have black backs and white bellies so when animals look from above, they see their dark backs blending with the water, and when they look from below, they see their white bellies blending with the bright sky, helping penguins stay hidden.
