Everything that swims, floats or lives by the sea is collected here. A whale blows a spout of water, a shark glides by with a toothy grin, a turtle walks along the sand and a striped fish trails bubbles. A maze winds through an ocean scene. An under-the-sea picture asks children to compare two drawings and circle what changed.

Each sea animal comes as an easy and a standard coloring page, a tracing sheet, a drawing guide and dot to dots in three levels. The fish, the shark and the turtle also get animal-shaped mazes. Later in the season a jumping dolphin, a waving octopus, a mermaid on a rock and a seaside day with a castle and a sailboat join them.

An ocean week

Teachers often pair these pages with a lesson on sea life. Children color the animals, trace them, then sort them into fish and not fish. At home, an ocean page is a calm activity after a trip to the beach or the aquarium. The puzzle answers sit on page two. A class set can be page one only, printed at 100 percent on A4 or US Letter, with the key kept at the teacher’s desk.

Frequently asked questions

What is in the ocean collection?

Sea animals such as a spouting whale, a swimming shark, a walking turtle and a striped fish, an ocean maze, and an under-the-sea scene with spot-the-difference puzzles. A dolphin, an octopus, a mermaid and a seaside scene follow later in the season.

Is there a puzzle for older children?

Yes. The under-the-sea scene has spot-the-difference pages with 5, 7 or 10 changes, and the detailed dot to dots and mazes are made for ages 9 to 12.

Which sea animals have a maze?

The fish, the shark and the turtle each have a maze shaped like the animal, and a separate maze winds through an ocean scene.
