Pingu is a beloved stop-motion animated children's show featuring the adventures of a penguin named Pingu and his family and friends in their small Antarctic village. In season 6 episode 11, titled "Pingu and the Paint / Pingu and the New Scooter," viewers get to see not one but two exciting stories!
In "Pingu and the Paint," Pingu's mom enlists him to help repaint the house. As Pingu gets to work, he quickly realizes that painting is harder than it looks! He struggles to keep the paint on the wall while avoiding making a mess. When he accidentally knocks over the paint can, he needs all of his creativity to solve the problem before his mom finds out. With the help of his family, Pingu comes up with a solution that saves the day.
Next up is "Pingu and the New Scooter," in which Pingu's little sister Pinga receives a brand new scooter as a gift. Pingu is immediately jealous and wants a scooter of his own. He tries to borrow Pinga's, but she is hesitant to let him use it. Pingu eventually decides to build his own scooter using materials he finds around the house. However, he soon discovers that his homemade scooter is not as sturdy as Pinga's. When Pingu crashes and breaks his scooter, he learns an important lesson about not being too greedy and appreciating what he has.
