Cousin: Oh, me too!

Oh, and I have so many ideas for our playdate.

First! A game of Hodie Ball!

Donkey: Ha ha!

Cousin: And then a picnic with all our favorite foods.

Then a cousins' hike.

And then swimming at the beach!

Donkey: Hee-hawesome!

Nothing's going to stop these cousins from having fun!

Cousin: Mm-mmm. Oh-oh.

Maybe something <span tts:fontStyle="italic">will</span>stop these cousins from having fun...

Cousin/Donkey: ...Rain!



Cousin: Aww! Looks like we're not gonna be able

to do anything fun today, Donkey.

Donkey: Hmm. Maybe the rain will stop soon.

Cousin: Oh, yeah.

Weather Bird: This is the Someplace Else Weather Bird

with a Someplace Else Weather update...

The rain will not be stopping anytime soon.

Donkey: Thanks, Weather Bird!

Weather Bird: You're welcome, Donkey! See ya!

Donkey: Buh-bye! Cousin: Bye!

Wow! You get your weather from a bird?

Donkey: Yeah, and rainy days are Weather Bird's favorite!

Cousin: Well, they're not my favorite.

Rain means no Hodie Ball or cousin swim.

Donkey: I know you're disappointed.

Sometimes, I can't do all the things I want to do, either.

But instead of feeling sad,

I try to find other ways to have fun.

Cousin: Oh. You think we can find other ways

to have fun in the rain?

Donkey: Oh yeah!

I, Donkey Hodie, will find fun things to do in the rain!

Hmm.

[gasp]

We need a Rainstorm Brainstorm!

Cousin: What's that? Donkey: [giggles]

Oh, it's a very special way to think in the rain.

And it goes a little something like this...

Cousin: Okay.

Donkey: Rainstorm Brainstorm,

think, think, think!

Cousin: Umm. Like this?

Rainstorm Brainstorm, think, think, think!

Donkey: Yeah, like that! Cousin: Okay.

Donkey/Cousin: Rainstorm Brainstorm, think, think, think!

[giggling]

[gasp] I see something fun we can do in the rain.

Cousin: What?

Donkey: Puddle kersplashing! Ha ha!

Cousin: What?

Donkey: KEEEEEEERRRRR--SPLASH!

Cousin: Oooh! Oooh! Oooh! My turn! My turn!

KERRRRRRRRR-SPLASH!!

Donkey/Cousin: KERR-SPLASH! KEEEERRRR-SPLASH!

Cousin: More kersplashing please!

Donkey: Yeah! KERR-SPLASH! Cousin: KERR-SPLASH!

KERR-SPLASH! KERR-SPLASH!

KERR-SPLASH! KERR-SPLASH! KERR-SPLASH!

KERR-SPLASH! KERR-SPLASH! KERR-SPLASH! KERRR-SPLASSHHHH!

Donkey: [giggling]

Cousin: KERR-SPLASH! KERR-SPLASH!

KERR-SPLASH! KERR-SPLASH!

Cousin: KERR-SPLASH! KERR-SPLASH!

KERR-SPLASH! KERR-SPLASH!

Donkey: Kerrrr-Splash! Kerr-splash!

Donkey/Cousin: Kerr-splash! [laughing]

Cousin: Oh, that was so, so, so much fun!

Donkey: Yeah! Now, let's think of some other

fun thing to do in the rain!

Cousin: Yeah! Rainstorm Brainstorm!

Donkey/Cousin: Rainstorm Brainstorm,

think, think think!

Cousin: [gasp] Ooo, I thought of something

extra fun to do in the rain.

Flowers smell extra flowery in the rain!

Donkey: So let's flower sniff in the rain!

Cousin: Yeah!



[sniffs] Oh! This red one smells sweet.

Donkey: [sniffs] Ooo!

This orange flower smells perfume-y!

Cousin: [giggles] Oh!

[sniffs] Ooo this purple flower smells like grape jelly!

[sniffs] Here smell it.

Donkey: [sniffs] [gasp]

Donkey/Cousin: Purple Panda!

Purple Panda: [giggles] Hi!

Just having a grape jelly snack! [giggles]

[gasp] Oh, I'm sorry. Do you want some?

Cousin: Mmmm! Yummy!

Oh, flower sniffing in the rain and sharing a rainy day snack

with friends is super fun. Donkey: Ha!

Well we're not done with the fun yet, Cuz!

Cousin: Right! Let's Rainstorm Brainstorm!

Donkey/Cousin: Rainstorm Brainstorm,

think, think, think!

Donkey: Hmm. Ooo! I know!

Sometimes Grampy and I sit on his porch

and read while it's raining.

It's super cozy! Cousin: Yeah!

Grampy Hodie: Once upon a time

in the Neighborhood of Make Believe,

King Friday wondered why it was so quiet.

Queen Sarah Saturday told him

that everyone had gone to Someplace Else.

Donkey: I love this story, Grampy.

Grampy: Mm-hmm.

Donkey: Let's read a story! Cousin: Yeah!

Donkey: See ya, Panda! Panda: Oh, bye!

Cousin: Thank you for the snack! Panda: You got it!

Enjoy your rainy day story.

[giggles]

[sighs]



Duck Duck: Well, you two sure came to the right place,

cuz I have a whole selection of books

for rainy days just like today.

Let's see here.

Rainy day stories, rainy day stories?

Oh, hey, hey! Here's a good one!

"The Story of the Rainbow Tree!" Yeah!

Cousin: Haw-hee, can you read it to us, please?

Duck Duck: Oh, sure sure!

Kay kay, here we go.

Once Upon a Time...

...there lived a donkey

in a place called Someplace Else!

Cousin: Hey! That's Grampy when he was younger!

Duck Duck: Yep, yep it is.

One day, after a big rainstorm,

the donkey saw a rainbow.

Donkey: [giggles]

Duck Duck: But it wasn't just any rainbow,

it was a bouncing rainbow!

Cousin: A bouncing rainbow?!

Donkey: Yes! I love this part.

Duck Duck: The rainbow bounced on a hill!

The rainbow bounced off a windmill!

The rainbow bounced in the park.

The rainbow bounced so much,

that it bounced itself right into the ground!

Cousin: Haw-hee! Donkey: Hee-haw!

Duck Duck: The donkey always wanted to remember

where the rainbow bounced into the ground,

so he planted a seed in that spot...

...and a tree

immediately sprang from the ground!

And that tree burst with color.

The donkey knew it wasn't an ordinary tree!

It was...

...a Rainbow Tree!

And from that day on, after every rainstorm,

a rainbow bursts from the Rainbow Tree,

bathing Someplace Else in beautiful color!

The end!

Cousin: Haw-hee! That was a great story!

Oh, I wish I could see the Rainbow Tree

bursting with color!

Donkey: Well, maybe you can, when the rain stops.

Duck Duck: Mh-hmm. Cousin: [gasp]

You mean this is a true story?

Duck Duck: Oh yep yep, yeah!

Yeah, the Rainbow Tree really does burst

with a colorful rainbow every time the rain stops!

Just like in the story!

Cousin: Oh, we-we gotta get to the Rainbow Tree

to see the rainbow!

Donkey: [laughs] C'mon! Cousin: Okay!

Duck Duck: Have fun!



Cousin: Hey, Donkey, where is it?

Where's the Rainbow Tree rainbow?

Donkey: Oh, the rainbow only comes after the rain stops.

Remember? Cousin: Oh yeah.

Well, maybe the rain will be over soon.

Donkey: Hmm.

Weather Bird: This is the Someplace Weather Bird.

This just in, the rain will not be stopping soooooon!

Cousin: AWWW! Donkey: Aww, sorry, Cousin,

I don't think you're going to see a rainbow today.

Cousin: I'm disappointed, Donkey.

It's so wonderful to see a rainbow!

Hey wait...

do you think there's another way we can see a rainbow?

Donkey: [gasp] That's a hee-hawesome idea!

Okay, think Donkey Hodie, think.

[gasp] What if we make our own rainbow?

Cousin: Well, yeah, but how?

Donkey/Cousin: Hmm.

[gasp] RAINSTORM BRAINSTORM!

Rainstorm Brainstorm, think, think, think!

Donkey: Hmm. Now what comes in a rainbow of colors?

Hmm. Cousin: Um, ooo!

Balloons and swirly kites do.

Donkey: [gasp] And crayons do.

Cousin: Flowers do.

Donkey: Ooo, and fruits do. Cousin: They do!

Umm. [gasp] Oh!

Do you know what else comes in a hee-hawesome

rainbow of colors?

Donkey: What?

Cousin: Ooo!

Donkey: Or, uh, Chuckle Checkers?

Cousin: [laughs] I love Chuckle Checkers!

Donkey: Yeah! Cousin: Ooo hey,

maybe it's Clap Flap Tap?

Donkey: What's Clap Flap Tap?

Cousin: Oh, it's so fun!

One player calls out "Clap Flap Tap"

and the other one has to do it in order.

And when they get it right,

they get to change the order for the other one to do.

Donkey: Well, let's play! Cousin: Okay!

[clears throat] Clap Flap Tap!

Donkey: Mm-hmm. Mm-hmm.

Cousin: Uh, Donkey, you have to Clap Flap Tap.

Donkey: Oh! Oh, right! Umm. Okay so, uh,

Clap! Uh, Flap! Tap!

[laugh] Now what do I do?

Cousin: Oh oh! [hushed] Now you have to change up the order!

Donkey: Oh! Okay, um,

Flap! Tap! Clap!

Cousin: But-but, Donkey, you don't do it, I do it!

Donkey: Oh, well, sorry, sometimes it takes me

a few tries when I'm learning something new. [giggles]

Cousin: Oh, you can do it, Donkey!

Donkey: [giggles] Let's try again!

Cousin: Okay! [clears throat]

Clap! Flap! Tap!

Donkey: Clap! Flap! Tap!

Cousin: Uh huh! Donkey: [giggles]

Uh, F-Flap! Tap! Clap!

Cousin: Okay, Flap!

Tap! Clap!

[giggles] You got it, Donkey!

Donkey: Yeah, this is fun! Cousin: Yeah, it sure is,

but, umm, I wonder what games are at Grampy's?

Donkey: Well there's only one way to find out!

Come on! Cousin: Okay!

Donkey/Cousin: [chanting] Game Day at Grampy's!

Game Day at Grampy's!

Game Day at Grampy's! Game Day at Grampy's!

Game Day at Grampy's! Game Day at Grampy's!

Donkey/Cousin: Hi Grampy!

Grampy: Who's ready for...

Grampy: ...Grampy's Game Day!?

Donkey: Oh yeah, I am! Cousin: Me, me, me!

Gregory: Me! Me! Grampy: Well, let's go!

C'mon! Here we go!

Gregory: [blurts]

Grampy: Okay, get ready, because it's time to play...

...Grampy's Guppies!

Gregory: [blurts]

Donkey: Oh yes!

I love playing Grampy's Guppies!

Cousin: Ooo! How do you play?

Grampy: You'll each take turns catching guppies. Like this.



Cousin: Haw-hee! You caught a guppy!

Grampy: Mm-hmm!

Gregory: [blurts] Grampy: Yeah!

And when you catch one, you get to do the Guppy Call!

"Glub glub glub guppy guppy glub!"

Cousin: [giggles] Catching guppies looks like fun.

Grampy: Mm-hmm. Well, it's time to play!

And first up is Donkey Hoooooodie!

Donkey: [giggles]

Haaaaa-ha-cha!

[gasp] Yes, I did it!

I caught a guppie!

Gregory: [blurts]

Donkey: And now, the Guppy Call!

"Glub glub glub guppy guppy glub!"

Cousin: No way! You caught a guppy

on your very first turn, Donkey.

Grampy: Yeah, great job, my little Donkaroo.

Okay, and now, here he is,

Cousin Hoooooooodie!

Cousin: Oh. Donkey: Good luck, Cuz.

Cousin: Hmm... You know I, uh,

I've never done anything like this before.

Hmm.

Whoopsie!

[giggles] Double whoopsie!



Gregory: Oh.

Oh! [yells]

Cousin: Triple whoopsie!

Gregory: [yelling]

Cousin: [laughing] Wee!

Haw-hee! [laughing]

Grampy: Woah there Gregory!

Are you okay?

Cousin: Uh, yeah but, um,

I still haven't caught any guppies...

Donkey: Hmm. How can I help?

Think, Donkey Hodie, think.

Hmm. Oh I know!

Cousin: Ooo what-what tell me what?

Donkey: Why don't you let me have another turn?

That way you can watch how I do it.

Cousin: Hmm. But Grampy said we had to

take turns catching guppies,

and I haven't caught a guppy yet.

Grampy: Hmm, that's true.

Let's let Cousin have a few more tries.

It's his first time playing.

Cousin: Thank you, Grampy. Grampy: Mm-hmm.

Well, I'd be happy to share some fishing tips with you.

Cousin: Haw-hee!

With your help, I'll catch a guppy in no time!

Grampy: Mm-hmm. Donkey: Well, okay.

I, Donkey Hodie, will wait my turn.

How long could it take?

Grampy: Okay, ready? Cousin: Uh huh.

Grampy: ...and cast off.

And cast off.

And cast off.

You got this. You can do it!

Cousin: Woah. Grampy: Keep trying.

Cousin: Oh! Oh!

Donkey: Ugh!

Cousin's turn is taking a lot longer than I thought...

Cousin: I can do this. Grampy: Here, try this.

Choose a guppy with your eye. Cousin: Mm-hmm.

Grampy: Pull back the pole, then let it fly!

Cousin: Okay Grampy. Umm, choose a guppy with my eye.

Pull back the pole, then let it fly!

[pop!] Cousin: [gasp] I did it!

I did it! [laughs]

Donkey: Hee-haw! You caught a...

Cousin: ...Radio?

Grampy: Well, you caught something.

You're getting better little by little.

That's improvement.

Cousin: Yeah, it's improvement!

Donkey: Yeah, great! Okay, it's my turn again.

Cousin: Uh, but I haven't caught a guppy yet!

Donkey: But you caught the radio.

Cousin: Grampy said we have to take turns catching guppies,

not radios.

Right, Grampy? Grampy: Hmm...

Now that you're getting better with the fishing pole,

why don't you let Donkey have a turn?

Cousin: Well, okay. Donkey: Hee-haw!

Now I can finally fish for more guppies!

Grampy: Okay, ready when you are, my little Donkaroo!

Donkey: Uh huh!

Hmm, ha-cha!

Cousin: You caught a guppy. Hooray for Donkey!

Donkey: [laughs] Gregory: [blurts]

Donkey: Thanks Cuz.

"Glub glub glub guppy guppy glub!"

Cousin: And you know what that means...

It's my turn again!

Donkey: Again? Already?

Cousin: Oh, don't worry Donkey.

I'll catch a guppy in no time.

[pop!] Cousin: Okay no,

that's the window.

[pop!] Cousin: Another window...

[pop!] Cousin: Window.

You've got a lot of windows, Grampy.

Grampy: Okay, remember the rhyme.

Cousin: Oh, right right!

"Choose a guppy with my eye..."

Donkey: Uh, uh, hey hey, who wants to do a new game?

Huh? Anyone? Cousin? Hmm.

Cousin: Uh, I really wanna finish this game.

Grampy: Yeah, me too.

I thought "Grampy's Guppies" would be a fun game.

Donkey: Oh well, we can still have fun!

There are plenty of fun games around here.

I'll go get one!

Cousin: Uh...



Donkey: Think, Donkey Hodie, think!

There must be something else we can play. Hmm.

Grampy: What's the matter, my little Donkaroo?

I thought you liked Grampy's Guppies?

Donkey: Oh I do, Grampy! It's just...

Oh it's just taking a really long time for me to get a turn,

and it's so...frustrating!

Grampy: Hmm, I see.

Donkey: It was more fun when we played Clap Flap and Tap.

[giggles] Actually, I wasn't so good at first...

Grampy: Hmm? Well, why do you think that was?

Donkey: Well, because it was new for me.

Hm, learning new things can be really hard.

Grampy: Well, you know using a fishing pole

is new for Cousin Hodie.

Just like Clap Flap and Tap was new for you.

Donkey: Hey, you're right Grampy.

And Cousin didn't get impatient with me.

He cheered me on.

"You can do it, Donkey"! [giggles]

Grampy: Mm-hmm.

Donkey: And maybe instead of getting frustrated,

I can cheer him on too!

Grampy: Yeah, that sounds like a great plan, my little Donkaroo.

Donkey: [giggles]



Cousin: [sighs] Oh Donkey.

Fishing for guppies is hard.

Donkey: Learning new things is hard Cousin.

But I know you can do it! Hit it Gregory.
