Happy Hippo Makes a Mighty Splash
Down by the river on a sunny day, a cheerful hippopotamus jumps and plays in the sparkling water, sending huge splashes everywhere. With a big open-mouthed laugh, this hippo loves to feel the cool drops and wiggle its toes. Imagine the sounds of giggles and splashing as you add bright colors to bring this joyful scene to life. Will the water be crystal blue or maybe a rainbow explosion? Let your imagination decide!
FUN FACT
Hippos use their short, flat tails to scatter their dung (poop) around, which is a way male hippos mark their territory.
