NAME:

sled on the stairs

Dino dinosaur is in the home of hippopotamus Horace. They are prepared to play a game called sledding on the stairs.
– I found out by accident. Due to a big accident – ​​Horacio explains with a giggle.
– I was walking down the stairs in my socks, I slipped and fell. I slipped sitting on all the steps. But the carpet on the steps is soft, so I didn't actually hurt myself.

Dino understands.
“You're lucky,” he says. “We only have the wooden ladder. We would get hurt.
– Don't even play! – comments Horacio – But it's fun here. Try it!
The friends climb the wide steps.
“Just sit on the first step, lift your feet a little and lean back,” he explains to Dino.
– Whooo! - Shouts Dino as he slips, step by step, to the ground.
- Here I go! Watch out down there! – Horacio yells and knocks down.
– Let's try a run now! – Horacio exclaims. They climb the steep steps and sit on the first.
– One, two, three… Now! – Shouts Horacio, and the two go down sliding. Horacio, wins easily.
'I think I slide faster because I'm… bigger,' he says, rubbing his stomach.
– You really have more… Stuffing – laughs Dino, massaging his butt. – It's fun, but I don't think I'll be able to sit down when I go to lunch!
