Tips and tricks

❄️ Snow isn’t just white. Add the faintest touches of lavender or very pale sky blue to the snow and floating ice to give it texture and depth.

🐧 Don’t forget the colour! Penguin beaks and feet are often bright yellow or orange – a simple way to bring energy and warmth into the scene.

🌈 Fancy something different? Imagine the penguin family is standing under a spectacular Aurora Borealis! Use vibrant greens, blues and purples in the sky for a magical touch.

Frequently asked questions
How many species of penguins are there?

There are 18 penguin species, each with its own habitat and unique characteristics.


Why don’t penguins fly?

Penguins don’t fly because their wings have evolved into flippers, perfectly adapted for swimming underwater. This helps them move quickly and gracefully while hunting fish


How do penguins keep warm in the polar cold?

Penguins have a thick layer of fat and a special, dense plumage that traps air and keeps them warm, even in freezing temperatures.


Where do penguins live?

Most penguins live in the Southern Hemisphere, especially in Antarctica and on nearby islands. Some species also live in milder or even temperate climates
