Leopard sharks live in shallow water along the Pacific coast of North America. Give the spots a darker color than the body so the pattern shows.

Coloring ideas
- Color the kelp in olive and golden greens, changing the shade from leaf to leaf so the stalks look thick.
- Trace around each round spot with a pencil before you fill it, which helps keep the body color out of the circles.
- Give the two fish bright yellows or oranges, so they shine between the green kelp.
Talk about it
- Point to the tallest thing in the kelp forest and the smallest thing on the sand.
- A leopard has spots too, so which other spotted animals can you name?
