Playful rephrasings for a 6-year-old: 'Flat as a pancake, the flounder lives on the seabed' — 3 fun ways

Here are three playful ways to say it:

1. Flat as a pancake, the flounder snuggles into the sandy seabed like a sleepy pancake-fish.
2. The flounder is pancake-flat and spreads out on the ocean floor like a cozy little rug.
3. Like a fishy pancake, the flounder lies flat and hides on the bottom of the sea.

Easy steps to imagine it:

1. Think of a pancake — it is very flat and squishy.
2. Now imagine a fish that is just as flat; that fish is a flounder.
3. The seabed is the bottom of the sea, where the flounder lies down to hide and rest.

Try it: lie flat on your tummy and pretend to be a flounder hiding on the sea floor!
