Fish are amazing creatures that live in water. They have special body parts to help them swim and stay alive. First, fish have scales. Scales are like tiny, shiny pieces of armor that cover their bodies. They keep the fish safe and help them glide through the water smoothly.
Fish also have fins. Fins are like little wings that help them move. The big fin on their back is called the dorsal fin. It helps them stay balanced. The fins on the sides help them turn and go in different directions.
Fish breathe underwater using gills. Gills are like special doors on the sides of their heads. When they open and close, they let water in and take out the oxygen they need to breathe.
Most fish have a tail too. The tail helps them swim fast and change direction quickly. Some tails are big and strong, while others are small and wiggly.
Fish come in all kinds of shapes and colors. Some are long and thin like eels, while others are round and fat. They can be bright red, shiny blue, or even see-through!
Some fish live in the ocean, while others live in rivers, lakes, or ponds. They eat different things too. Some fish like to eat plants, while others eat smaller fish or bugs. For today's drawing tutorial, we are going to learn to draw a simple fish. This is what it looks like when we look down from the water!
