I'm a Peppa Pig Parent!

My girls got a wonderful surprise in the mail yesterday. Being a Peppa Pig Parent ambassador, I was sent a box filled with some of the hottest Peppa Pig toys this holiday season.  They thought Peppa Pig herself was sending this this box of goodies as an early Christmas gift.  :-)  And, once they tore open the box, that is where the real fun began, as they spent hours playing with the toys they found inside the box.  So, what did the girls get, that got them so happy, and that they continue to talk about today to anyone who wants to listen :-)?  Here is a quick video I took of the girls "unboxing" their Peppa Pig Hot Toys for the 2016 Holiday Season...



They couldn't wait to start playing with the Peppa Pig's Treehouse and George's Fort Playset




But, I have to warn you in advance, either you will want to take this playset out of the box and have it setup and ready to play with, or let your kids know it will take a little while to unpackage everything as all the pieces are secured to the box with little twist ties.  But, once I was able to get all the pieces out, setup only took a matter of minutes, if that.  You simply have to slide the two pieces of the green grass base together and pop the treehouse, slide and ladder in place, as well as pop the tree with swing into place, and the kids are ready to go. 














Like I said, my girls had a blast playing with their new Peppa Pig's Treehouse and George's Fort Playset, which was top on this wish list to Santa, and is for most Peppa Pig fans.  They even pulled out their other Peppa Pig playsets and toys to made a mini Peppa Pig community.  I loved watching the girls have Peppa and George start at home with their other playset, wake and get ready to head to their treehouse to have a secret meeting with Rebecca Rabbit and friends.  And, when it was time for lunch, the girls pretended to be Peppa's Mom and called her and George home.  The girls really got into their stories and acted them out with such detail.  There was no fighting over toys, as this playset offered so many different things to do, from tea in the treehouse with Peppa Pig, swinging on the tree swing, peddling around on George's bike, sliding down the zip line, or even going down the treehouse slide right into a muddy puddle, which then triggers phrases and songs to start playing, which the girls thought was the neatest thing.  Oh, and I can't forget about George's pirate fort with the drawbridge you can lower and raise up to keep people out. 

Here are two other videos I took of the girls describing the Peppa Pig's Treehouse and George's Fort Playset and its many features, including the light in the treehouse, which you can turn on and off.  Oh, and don't mind Savannah and her Paw Patrol friends who came to play.  She said they are all part of the Nick Jr. family and lived down the street. :-)  Gotta love her imagination.


In addition to must have Peppa Pig's Treehouse and George's Fort Playset, we were also sent two Peppa Pig Micro Lites.

I am not sure if you have seen these in stores, but they are all the rage right now with young children, who are into blind bags.  Both of my girls make a point to stop by the aisle in Target that is lined with shelves of blind bags and surprise egg toys, along with micro-lites.  Here is Savannah explaining and showing what a micro-lite is, in case you didn't know.  


She has been collecting the Paw Patrol ones, and had no idea they had Peppa Pig ones.  Now she is asking Santa in add-on wish list #5 for Peppa Pig Micro-lights and the Peppa Pig Soft Light Night Light she saw while surfing the web for new Peppa Pig toys today. :-)  



In addition to the 2 Micro-Lites and the Treehouse and Fort playset, the girls also found the oinktastic new game, Peppa Pig’s Treasure Hunt Game, in the box of Peppa Pig goodies they were sent.  


While we haven't had a chance to play this game yet...the girls want to wait until game night tomorrow night, they know what is about after seeing it demoed online (gotta love kids and technology nowadays), and said it is a really fun game.  




We have a handful of other Peppa Pig games and they have not disappointed.  So, everyone is looking forward to tomorrow so we can play Peppa Pig’s Treasure Hunt Game.

While the girls were having fun with their Peppa Pig goodies, they pulled out a special gift I think was for me...well, I am claiming it for me.  What was it?  It was a beautiful Peppa Pig tree skirt. 



I loved the detailing of the skirt and ended up making a quick switch of the furry white one we had for this one.  I thought it is perfect as the girls are huge Peppa Pig fans, and it was a great way to celebrate my year of being of a Peppa Pig Parent and being able to share all the wonderful toys and news about the popular preschool program, Peppa Pig with you all.  



I am not sure where you can get the Peppa Pig tree skirt, but if I find out, I will definitely let you know. This is one tree skirt we will be using for years to come. It is so colorful and is reminds me about all the "firsts" the girls experienced, of which most of them they were wearing Peppa Pig clothes....first steps, first day of preschool, the first time Savannah read a book, their first vacation they were wearing matching Peppa Pig dresses before changing into Peppa Pig bathing suits.  

With the shopping season winding down - only 16 more days until Christmas and a week or so before it becomes crunch time with mailing items, I wanted to make sure you knew about about the above must have toys for that special Peppa Pig fan in your life.  In addition to the above, here is a recent press release I was sent that shares more great gift ideas, many of which my girls are asking Santa for, that your child would love to find on Christmas morning wrapped under the tree...
