Happy Hippo Awaits the Cool River Splash
A friendly hippopotamus stands on the riverbank, gazing at the gentle water. The air is warm, and the sand feels soft beneath its big feet. Maybe the hippo is thinking about taking a dip, or simply enjoying the soothing sounds of the river. Let your imagination decide—will you give the hippo a bright, sunny day or a magical twilight by the water? Each color you choose helps bring this peaceful riverside moment to life.
FUN FACT
Male hippos are very territorial in the water and will fight fiercely with other males that try to enter their area.
