Why Do We Have Fingerprints?
"What are those swirly lines on our fingers?"
💡 Simple Explanation
Your fingerprints are like tiny ridges and valleys on your fingertips, kind of like the treads on sneakers! They help you grip things better so your glass of milk doesn't slip. They're also super special because NO ONE in the whole world has the exact same fingerprints as you - not even twins! You got your unique pattern before you were even born.
🎉 Fun Fact!
Koalas have fingerprints too, and they look almost exactly like human fingerprints!
