Under the Sea Word Search
This under the sea word search swims through forty things below the waves: the mermaid and the seahorse, the sea star, sand dollar and sea turtle, the anglerfish down in the dark, and the submarine, scuba gear and shipwreck of the people who visit.
In seahorses the father gives birth. The female lays her eggs in a pouch on the male's belly, and he carries them for weeks until hundreds of tiny seahorses shoot out. A sea star is not a fish, which is why scientists prefer that name to starfish; it has no blood and no brain and can grow back a lost arm. The white sand dollar found on the beach is a skeleton. Alive, it is a flat cousin of the sea urchin, covered in soft purple spines.
The anglerfish lives where sunlight never reaches. The female carries a glowing lure on a spine over her mouth, lit by bacteria, and snaps up whatever swims toward it. The nautilus has kept almost the same coiled shell for hundreds of millions of years and floats by changing the gas in its chambers. Hans Christian Andersen published The Little Mermaid in 1837, and a bronze statue of her has sat on a rock in Copenhagen harbor since 1913.
