NAME:

Umbrella Tunnel

All the little friends are in hiding, annoyed by the rain outside. Their umbrellas are standing up, dripping in a corner.
– What can we do that is fun? - Babi sheep asks, discouraged. Everyone is thinking. Suddenly, the hippopotamus Horacio perks up.
– Let's make an umbrella tunnel!
- One what? – Babi strange.
– Just take a look! – Horácio answers – Okay, folks, open your umbrellas and leave everyone in a line on the floor. Place the umbrellas with the cables to each side.

They perk up inside the hideout. Soon, they build a tunnel of bright colors and slightly wet.
– Now, let's crawl in there and see what it's like! Horácio exclaims, squirming and squeezing through the path between the handles of the umbrellas.
Laughing and grunting, the little friends huddle in the tunnel.
- Ufa! Not much space! - Babi laughs.
– But it is very beautiful, with all these colors different from our umbrellas – replies the snake Silvia.
They are looking at the tunnel.
– Three cheers for Horacio! - Shouts Babi.
“Viva!”, “Viva!”, “Viva!”.
Horacio laughs.
- Ufa! I saved the day!
