Hipi’s Blog

Hipi, a young sheep is always up for a good New Zealand adventure! He is a curious sheep who loves to explore, he is eager to learn and is always ready to have fun. Wanting to explore beyond the gates and fences of his paddock, Hipi tries to escape every way he can but with no success… until a helpful and thoughtful fantail comes along. You will have to read the ‘Hipi loves to Explore’ to see what happens next!
Also join Hipi as he strolls along the beach learning his numbers from 1-10. At first he is feeling sad that he can’t figure out the order of the numbers but with an optimistic attitude he soon realizes that if he takes his time and has a look around, the numbers aren’t as tricky as he once thought.
