Our Favorite Flipnotes from last weeks Topic "Australia"

An encounter with a huge, hairy spider, in Australia, leads to a serious problem, when it's mother turns-up, in this hilarious entry by SimonSK. The brilliantly performed voice audio track, had us rolling about with laughter for ages. Nice one!


A koala bear uses a magical remote-control, to switch off the Australian bush fires, in this imaginative Flipnote, by Cosmirage. What a brilliant idea!


Link from Zelda, is paying a visit to Australia, in this lovely animated drawing, by マソメンミ. It looks like he's made some outback friends, but watch out for those bush fires.

This Weeks Topic - "Ground Hog Day"

Ground Hog Day is a tradition celebrated in Canada and the United States, on February 2nd. An furry mammal called a Ground Hog predicts, either the coming of an early Spring, or six more weeks of Winter, based on whether or not he sees a shadow, and returns to his den.

There is of course also a movie by the same name. A personal favorite of mine, it's set on Ground Hog Day itself, and tells the story of Phil Connors, a reporter who keeps waking up to the same morning of Ground Hog Day, over and over again, stuck in an endless time loop that he cannot escape from.

This Topic could be about the Ground Hog tradition itself, or the idea of an endless time loop, like the movie. It's up to you!

We really love the way you're all so creative with these topics and look forward to seeing the Flipnotes you create for them. Make sure to post your entries to the Weekly Topic channel Weekly Topic - Ground Hog Day and the deadline for your entries is February 8th (12pm EST / 4pm GMT) Keep on Flipnoting and the best of luck with your entries.
