(Music playing)

Animated shapes in different colours jump around an off-white background. The shapes have eyes and mouths, and arms and legs. They smile as they hop around the animated landscape, turning it into different colours.

Singing, COLOURBLOCKS, COLOURBLOCKS RED AND YELLOW AND BLUE. COLOURBLOCKS, COLOURBLOCKS. GREEN AND PURPLE AND ORANGE, TOO. IN A MAGIC WORLD OF COLOURS LOOK WHAT WE CAN DO. COLOURBLOCKS, COLOURBLOCKS WE'RE MIXING IT UP FOR YOU!

All shouting, COLOURBLOCKS!

A title reads: Colourblocks

(Giggling)

A blue butterfly flies over a colourless landscape of gently rolling hills. Green, shaped like a square with a rounded top, steps forward.

Green says, WHAT A NICE DAY FOR A PICNIC. NATURALLY, WE CAN'T HAVE A PICNIC WITHOUT SOME LOVELY GREEN GRASS.

Green touches the ground, and it turns green. Red, a triangle with a rounded bottom, skips over.

(Giggling)

Red says, AND SOME RED FLOWERS.

Red touches roses, turning them red. Blue, a square, walks over.

Blue says, NO PICNIC WOULD BE COMPLETE WITHOUT A BRIGHT BLUE SKY.

Blue jumps high in the air and turns the sky blue.

Blue says, BLUE. HA. NOW, WHERE'S YELLOW?

Yellow rolls up to them and jumps up. Yellow is a circle with long arms and legs.

Yellow cries, I'M HERE! LOOK, EVERYONE. I'VE GOT THE MOST IMPORTANT THING OF ALL: A YELLOW PICNIC BASKET.

Red shouts, EXCITING! OOH.

Yellow pulls a long rolled up blanket out of the small basket and unrolls it on the grass.

(Giggling)

Red says, HUH?

Blue says, COOL.

(Trumpet flourish)

Red says, OH, OH! THIS PICNIC BLANKET SHOULD BE RED.

A few lines on the blanket turn red.

Red asks, HEY, WHY IS ONLY SOME OF IT RED?

Blue says, I THINK THIS BLANKET IS SUPPOSED TO BE RED AND BLUE.

Squares on the blanket turn blue.

Blue says, HUH? MAYBE WE NEED SOME HELP.

Green sits on the blanket and a few lines on it turn green.

Green says, GREEN.

Yellow says, YELLOW.

The remaining lines on the blanket turn yellow.

All cry, HOORAY!

Green says, THIS PICNIC BLANKET IS A PERFECT PATTERN OF...

Red says, ...RED...

Yellow says, ...YELLOW...

Green says, ...GREEN...

Blue says, ...AND BLUE. SO, SOME THINGS CAN BE LOTS OF COLOURS.

(Stomach grumbling)

Red says, OH. ALL THIS COLOURING HAS MADE ME SUPER HUNGRY. CAN WE START THE PICNIC NOW, PLEASE?

Yellow says, HAPPILY.

Yellow takes a bowl of colourless strawberries out of the basket.

Red says, OH. STRAWBERRIES SHOULD BE RED.

Green says, YUM. NATURALLY DELICIOUS.

Yellow says, OH, LOOK. A LOVELY BUNCH OF YELLOW BANANAS.

Blue says, COOL. WHAT ELSE HAVE YOU GOT IN THERE, YELLOW?

Yellow says, I'VE GOT SOME PEARS.

Green says, OH, LEAVE THOSE TO ME. GREEN PEARS.

(Giggling)

Blue says, HMM. I THINK IT'S TIME FOR SOME BLUE FOOD. HOW ABOUT A BLUE BANANA?

(Giggling)

Yellow says, BANANAS AREN'T BLUE; THEY'RE YELLOW.

Blue asks, SHALL WE TRY IT?

Green says, WHAT? COLOUR IT A SILLY COLOUR?

Yellow says, WHY NOT? IT'LL BE FUNNY.

Blue says, BLUE.

Blue touches a banana, turning it blue. The banana floats in the air and spins.

Yellow says, BLUE BANANAS ARE VERY STRANGE.

Red jumps up and tries to grab the banana.

Red says, WOW. COME HERE, BLUE BANANA! WOO-HOO!

Red chases the banana over the grass. The banana spins, with its peel out like a helicopter blades. It flies after Red.

(Giggling)

Yellow says, BLUE BANANAS ARE SO FUNNY.

Red walks back to the blanket.

Red says, WHEW. PHEW. I THINK I'LL STICK WITH YELLOW BANANAS. AT LEAST THEY DON'T CHASE YOU.

(Everyone laughing)

Yellow says, I THINK IT'S TIME FOR SOME MORE SILLY COLOURING.

Green says, YES! LET'S SEE WHAT OTHER THINGS WE CAN COLOUR DIFFERENTLY.

Red shouts, HOORAY!

Yellow says, LET'S DO IT. LOOK. I'M GOING TO COLOUR THESE STRAWBERRIES YELLOW.

Yellow touches another bowl of strawberries. The yellow strawberries jump up and down.

(Popping sound)

Red says, AH, EXCITING! ME NEXT.

Red turns the grass red. Red walks on it as though it were a trampoline.

Red says, RED. WHOA. LOOK. THE RED GRASS IS BOUNCY.

Red jumps into the sky. The others begin bouncing.

(Laughing)

Yellow cries, YIPPEE!

Blue says, COOL.

Green says, WOO-HOO! LET'S TRY SOME BRIGHT GREEN CLOUDS.

Green jumps high into the sky.

Green says, GREEN.

Green touches a white cloud, turning it green. The cloud rains green bubbles.

(Giggling)

(Bubbles popping)

Red bounces up and down, popping bubbles.

Red cries, WOO! WOO! WOO-HOO!

(Music playing)

Yellow says, SILLY COLOURING MAKES ME HAPPY.

Blue says, OOH. WHOA.

(Laughing)

Red bounces as green bubbles float down.

Red cries, WHOA-HO! OH.

Red runs along the red ground.

(Giggling)

(Stomach grumbling)

Red says, OH. I'M HUNGRY AGAIN.

Blue says, PICNIC, THIS WAY.

(Bubbling)

Everyone sits on the blanket. The sky and the grass are back to normal. Yellow passes around a bowl of yellow bananas.

Red says, PHEW. I'M GLAD IT'S A YELLOW BANANA. I'M TOO HUNGRY FOR A SILLY BLUE ONE.

Green says, IT'S GOOD TO COLOUR THINGS THE COLOUR THEY'RE MEANT TO BE.

Blue says, BUT IT'S COOL TO HAVE SILLY COLOURING TIME, TOO.

Yellow says, YOU KNOW NEVER WHAT FUN THINGS MIGHT HAPPEN.

The blue banana flies over, still spinning. Red jumps up.

Red says, UH-OH. HERE WE GO AGAIN.

The banana chases Red.

(Everyone laughing)
