A crab on the sandy seabed
The scene focuses on a crab with two strong claws resting on the seafloor. Sand surrounds the animal, while nearby seaweed places it in a natural underwater habitat. Its hard shell, jointed legs, eye stalks, and prominent pincers give children several recognizable crab features to explore.
Life along the ocean floor
Crabs often search the seabed for algae, small animals, and edible remains. Their sideways walk comes from the way most of their leg joints bend, although some species can also move forward and backward. Seaweed provides food and shelter for many creatures living in shallow coastal waters.
