Nap Time for Hippo and Feathered Friends
Down by the gentle riverbank, a sleepy hippopotamus dozes while five friendly birds perch on its back. The birds enjoy the sunny morning as they keep their giant buddy company, chirping soft lullabies while he rests. Imagine the peaceful water and think about what colors the birds might be as you bring this cozy scene to life.
FUN FACT
Hippos are very social animals and live in groups called pods, herds, or bloats.
