Stamp, stampier, stampiest

Stamping turned out to be more interesting and creative than I had originally envisioned.

Dip and press can offer only so much fun though. As a stamp is a stamp is a stamp. The image is set, static and predetermined. B and Little Miss worked this out pretty quickly and found it more interesting to make their own marks with the stamps.

And I was really impressed.



The stamp paint pad offered another sensory option.

And with this, fingers danced.

Who needs rubber stamps when you have fingers and toes (or didn't it get that far!)

The beauty of fingers is that it can be a lesson in how individual we are with our fingerprints, with everyone else different from our own.
