I absolutely love to color and craft! Over the past few months I have been recovering from a broken foot and since I wasn't able to play at recess, I have spent quite a bit of time coloring.

Starry Pufferfish (Image Source) Sea Creature Spotlight: Puffer Fish This sea creature spotlight is about the puffer fish. The puffer fish is interesting to me because it puffs itself up to scare away enemies. The puffer fish lives in the Indian, Pacific, and Atlantic ocean. Also, they are usually at most aquariums if you want to see them close. When I went to the Florida Aquarium (

Atlantic Spotted Dolphin (image source) Sea Creature Spotlight: Dolphins This sea creature spotlight is all about dolphins! I do not know a person around who doesn't love dolphins. I am not sure if it's because of the way they can majestically leap out of the water, the way they look like they are smiling, the cute noises they make or the fact that they are so intelligent, but whatever

Sea Creature Spotlight: Dumbo Octopus This Sea Creature Spotlight is about the dumbo octopus. I like dumbo octopi (Did you know the correct plural of "octopus" is actually octopi?) because they are very small and interesting. Fun Facts  There are at least fifteen types of dumbo octopi. They get their names from their large fins, which sort of resemble elephant ears
