_{Project 4 — Step 1 of 5}

⭐ Step 1 — Choose a background

➡️ Pick a background color for your face.

✏️ What to type

In the editor, set up turtle and pick a background color. Some ideas:

• 'skyblue'
• 'lightyellow'
• 'mistyrose'
• '#222222' (dark grey, for a night scene)
• '#ffe4b5' (peachy)

import turtle

screen = turtle.Screen()
screen.setup(400, 400)
# Set screen.bgcolor() to a color you like

pen = turtle.Turtle()
pen.hideturtle()
pen.speed(0)

screen.mainloop()

Tap ▶ Run. You should see a square in your chosen color. 🎨

🔍 Tip

Turtle knows lots of color names: 'red', 'orange', 'pink', 'lavender', 'crimson', 'turquoise'. For exact colors, use the '#RRGGBB' hex code form like in Project 1.
