Happy Hippo Hops in the Water
It’s a bright day near the riverbank, and a cheerful little hippopotamus is having fun splashing through a shallow puddle. Two fluttery butterflies circle overhead, joining in the playful scene as the hippo giggles and hops around. Let your imagination soar as you bring this lively moment to life with your favorite colors. What color will you make the hippo and butterflies?
FUN FACT
A hippo's skin is very sensitive to drying out, which is another reason why hippos spend so much time in the water.

COLORING TIPS
For a fun twist, try using light and dark shades of the same color on the hippo’s body to add depth. Use gentle strokes for the water splashes and consider making the butterflies bright and colorful. Add a pale blue or green background to finish the playful outdoor scene.
