🎨 How to color it

Color the octopus coral pink, the big bubbles pale aqua, the sandy mound golden tan, and the coral sprigs seaweed green. Use chunky crayons or broad markers for the octopus’s big head and wide tentacles, then tap little dots of color onto the suction cups. Try making each bubble fade from blue at the edge to almost white in the middle, like it is holding a tiny bit of light.

Under the soft swish-swish of morning water, Vina carried a tiny glass bead in one careful tentacle. It looked plain as a pebble, but when sun slipped through it, a warm dot danced on the sand. Vina wanted every shell and coral twig in the sand garden to see that little shine.

She floated slowly, passing the striped clam, the round stones, and the bendy coral sprigs. The bead flashed on a bubble, then another. “Wait,” Vina whispered. The bubbles were not stealing the shine—they were passing it along.

Soon bright dots bobbed over the mound like quiet bells. Vina opened all her tentacles wide so the garden could catch them. If you peek at the bubbles now, can you find the tiny shine Vina shared under the soft swish-swish of morning water?
