About the Starfish

A starfish, or sea star, is not a fish at all but an animal shaped like a star, usually with five arms. It creeps slowly along the seabed on hundreds of tiny tube feet tucked underneath its body. If a predator bites off an arm, a starfish can often grow a brand-new one back. This suits an ocean unit or a tide-pool lesson, where children can trace out along one arm and back.

  • A starfish can regrow an arm it has lost.
  • It moves on rows of tiny tube feet underneath its body.
  • Starfish are invertebrates, not fish, despite the name.
