Today, you are a monkey in the zoo. You bend and bounce at the knees, letting your arms hang loosely. You swing from side to side as you bounce and let you head hang down, feeling very relaxed. You stretch up high above you to grab hold of a branch in your cage. You pull yourself up and swing energetically from branch to branch. You land next to a friend in your tree, and you comb through his/her back to see if you can find any good munchies, giving your fellow monkey a little bit of a back scratch while you're at it. "Oh no!" You sigh. There are no good munchies. But there is hope for your hungry tummy! You see the zookeeper coming with food, and you excitedly make little monkey noises! (Oo-oo-oo! with flexes) You jump down from your tree to get near the bearer of yummy eats. He places the bowl on the ground in front of you, and you reach down to scoop out handfuls and eagerly chew big mouthfuls of your scrumptious lunch. When it's all gone, you stretch down, pick up the bowl, and lick out the inside. Now you are sleepy from such an active day, and you stretch, sigh, and take a lovely afternoon nap.
