Did you know? Sea turtles are different from “land turtles". They have flippers instead of legs. They also cannot draw their heads and limbs entirely inside their shells to hide.
This turtle might remind you of the young sea turtle Squirt from Disney's Finding Nemo. You can recreate your favorite scenes when you learn how to draw Nemo. You can add this Dory drawing, too.
