Description
This nature stamp activity set gathers everything for an afternoon of printing in one neat box: a set of small stamps, a row of bright ink pads and an illustrated activity book to stamp into. The design is full of cheerful wildlife, with songbirds on a branch, a deer, a rabbit, a hedgehog, a bee and a snail among the flowers on the lid, and a crab, fish and a wading bird beside a sandcastle on the book's cover. The ink pads come in green, orange, yellow, blue, red and a deep burgundy, so there is plenty of colour to play with. The box measures 22.6cm long, 22.2cm wide and 3cm deep.
Inside, the book's pages carry ready-made scenes waiting to be finished, such as a meadow of flowers, butterflies, ladybirds and a snail, with prompts like "Can you decorate the bugs and flowers?" printed in English, French, German and Spanish. Press a stamp onto a pad, then dot spots onto ladybirds, add petals to flowers or build patterns on a snail's shell. It is a lovely screen-free way to fill a rainy afternoon at the kitchen table or a quiet hour at the craft desk, and the slim box is easy to tuck into a bag for visits and holidays.
The activity book is paper, the stamps are foam and plastic (TPE), and the ink pads are plastic (ABS and AS) filled with a neutral water-based ink. Close each pad after use so the ink stays fresh, and keep the stamps and pads together in the box between sessions so nothing goes astray. A quick wipe of the stamps with a damp cloth before changing colour keeps prints clean. Wrapped up, it makes a cheerful, thoughtful gift, and we like to add a few sheets of plain paper so the stamping can carry on once the book is full.
