Winston, Esther and Gino are going to do some printing! They’ve got various things to make stamps from, and paint to print with.

Winston, Esther and Gino have gathered together paper, paint, a sponge, a potato, all on a sheet of newspaper.

Winston found a proper stamp and an inkpad, so he thought he’d see what it was. Oh! Well, that’s one way to get an S right!

Right, lets start printing some designs. Winston has carved a tree shape onto this potato half. That looks lovely in green!

I wonder what Esther is printing in red? Ah, it’s a ribbon or banner. Lovely decoration.

Hello, says Winston, what’s this pattern?

Gino! You’ve walked in the paint! You better go and wash your feet off!

The blobs lead to Gino, and are the same shape as his feet.
