                     PLAY WITH THE SPRITE


                  A sprite is a key element that serves as the main character or object in a project. Each sprite can
                  have its own set of costumes, scripts, and sounds, enabling it to perform various actions and
                  interact with other sprites. Scratch allows you to add sprite from sprite’s library, draw a new
                  sprite, use a surprise sprite, and upload a new sprite from your computer. The Choose a Sprite
                  button provides four options to perform all these operations, which are Choose a Sprite, Paint,
                  Surprise, and Upload Sprite.
