I'm writing the sentence.
(Two black and white penguins) now I’ve come up with these possible results:
1) du nigrablanka pingvenoj
2) du nigra kaj blanka pingvenoj
Which would you consider to be better in a children’s book, for ease of their learning.

du nigraj kaj blankaj pingvenoj
it cannot be misunderstood, since there must be more than one of both black and white penguins.

That one took me a while to understand .
