What is that?!
What is that doof-doof-doof noise?
A cat?
A mouse?
A visitor in the house?
No, it’s something even furrier than a cat, even cuter than a mouse, and much tinier than you and me.
It’s the three Doof-Doofs.
These sweet creatures have only one foot each to hop on. And each hop makes a thumping doof-doof on the floor.
Here is Solly Doof, the smart one, who is always thinking looooong and loud.
He uhhs and ahhs and doof-doofs all night long.
aaah uuh
He reads daytime stories to the other Doof-Doofs, because unlike you and me, that is when they sleep.
Thinky, stinky Solly Doof prefers reading over bathing any time.
And here is Sally Doof, the smallest and sweetest Doof-Doof of the three.
In a little quiet voice she sings doobee-doobee Doof-Doof songs, when it gets a bit too quiet in the night.
She likes finding shiny things and cuddles.
Snuggly, huggly Sally Doof who loves to sing.
clink clank clunk
Don’t forget Silly Doof, the funniest Doof-Doof in the house. He is always joking.
Wiggly, giggly Silly Doof will make you laugh until your tummy hurts.
He cheers up the other Doof-Doofs whenever they feel sad.
hahahahahahahaha!
He loves to dance on his big silly foot, to the songs that Sally Doof sings.
So, if at night you ever hear a strange doof-doof noise again, remember, it’s just the three Doof-Doofs, reading, singing and dancing on their one doof-doof foot.
So sleep well, little one.
Or keep one eye open…
Because maybe, just maybe, you’ll see three cute little creatures hopping past on one foot, going doof-doof-doof.
