NAME:
It's time for dinosaur Dino to sleep.
- Daddy, when you were little, used to play something when you went to sleep?
Dad thinks and then answers:
– I used to make animated shadows on the wall.
- What is it? – Dino asks, curious.
– I'll show you – Dad answers. He raises his hand to make a shadow on the wall.
– Look, here's a dog! Oh! Oh! - He says. – And here's a rabbit. – He shows Dino how to make two moving ears and a head with his hands.
Now there are two rabbits on the wall: One big and one small. Dino's little rabbit jumps high, right on top of the big one! Dino laughs:
– I'm a good fighter! – He says in a thin rabbit voice.
– How about a swan? – Dad suggests, making the swan's head and beak with one hand and the arm and feathers with the other.
Suddenly, the swan bites the dino bunny's ear. Daddy growls:
- I'm a hungry swan, looking for a rabbit sandwich!
– Hi-Hi-Hi-Hi! – Dino giggles when daddy has a swan and rabbit battle on the wall.
Dino is getting sleepy now. He yawns, making a shadow dog yawn too.
- I think it's better to cover you now - Dad laughs and carefully, puts both of Dino's little arms under the covers and gives him a kiss on the nose.
