Here are two fun ways to say it for a 6-year-old:

  1. "Brrr, whoosh, splash, crunch!" Places can be cold, hot, wet, or dry, and animals put on nature's costumes or learn new tricks to live there — that’s why we meet so many amazing animal friends!
  2. "Icy homes, sunny homes, soggy homes, and sandy homes!" Animals change how they look or how they act to feel comfy in their own kind of home, so we see lots of different, wonderful animals!

Quick steps to understand it:

  1. Different places need different things (warmth, water, shelter).
  2. Animals change their bodies or behavior to match, so they can live there happily.
