Abu loves those rainy days when you don't feel like going out: days for staying in your pyjamas with a book, a comic, or just watching the rain fall from the window. Yab and Abu are very imaginative, and Abu can't help drifting into a colourful imaginary world full of adventures. This time is no different. Where will the rain take Abu?

And what does the rain make you think of? For us, the smell of wet earth comes to mind right away, an unforgettable feeling. But everyone has their own memories. We'd love to hear yours.
Shall we watch Abu imagining in the rain?
A few secrets from this video
Curiosity 1. Did you notice the textures in the video? Different materials appear for different things. The clouds are made of short and long pile fabrics. The sky behind is crumpled paper and the ground is made of different natural fibres. The water is a piece of denim, and the tree is made of a kind of wicker. We can show things in a more imaginative way instead of settling for the obvious. Maybe you can try it in your own creations!
Here's a riddle: what material is the texture of the last leaves falling from the tree?
Curiosity 2. The frog and the snail are two characters from the 45-minute version of Ximpa in the Jungle, a story for preschool children by Sinilos Puppet Studio. Sinilos Puppet Studio is also the team behind Yababu!
