Happy Hippo Bathtime Splash

A plump hippopotamus charges through the shallow water, cheeks puffed wide with a huge grin. His little tail swings up behind him as his strong legs lift high, sending swooshes of water in every direction. Bright eyes peek out from under his wrinkly brow, shining with excitement.

You can almost hear his big feet slapping into the puddles—splash! splash!—as he plays. Wide, wiggly ripples roll across the water, making the whole scene feel lively and full of action. His round tummy jiggles and the tip of his nose points up, ready for more fun. There is so much space around him for colors to run wild.
