Hip hip hooray

Hip hip hooray is a phrase that we say when we are happy or excited about something. It's like cheering for our favorite sports team or getting a really good grade on a test. It's a way to express our joy and celebrate good things that happen in our lives.

When we say "hip hip hooray," we usually say it three times in a row, like this: "hip hip hooray, hip hip hooray, hip hip hooray!" It's kind of like clapping our hands or jumping up and down with excitement.

So, the next time you're feeling happy or proud of something, you can shout out "hip hip hooray!" to show how happy you are. And you can do it as many times as you want!
