Meet the Gentle Manatee Friend
In warm, shallow waters, a friendly manatee glides along, greeting everyone with a big, cheerful smile. She loves to explore the sea grass beds and float just below the surface, sometimes poking her nose out for a breath of fresh air. As you add color, imagine what other sea creatures might be swimming nearby, and bring this gentle aquatic neighbor to life in your own unique way!
FUN FACT
A manatee's tail is large, flat, and paddle-shaped, and the manatee moves it up and down to swim forward.

COLORING TIPS
Feel free to use gentle shading to give the manatee a soft, rounded look. Try blending different shades of blue or gray for her body, and add a hint of green around her for underwater plants. For a magical touch, add tiny bubbles or shimmering water patterns.
