Peppa Pig Deluxe Play House – Giveaway.
Peppa Pig has both a LOT to answer for and be thanked for, doesn’t she?
She is quite a popular discussion topic over on my facebook page with many parents accrediting her with a free half hour to have a shower, feed the baby, have a morning coffee in peace and quiet, prepare dinner in the witching hour or just generally enjoy a bit of down time whilst she casts her spell over the kidlets. As annoying as her bossy mannerisms may be and her very non PC way of labelling Daddy Pig in a more than rotund manner, what IS it about a precocious pink pig with an extremely suspicious looking nose that captivates the kids so much and has parents rejoicing around the world?
Just LOOK what Peppa has done to my boys!
Mr Point Five and I offered to take them to the park down the road where we used to live, where there is a massive sandpit, two slides, a fort, monkey bars, and basically the whole kit and caboodle.
You know what they wanted to do?
Yep – put on the wellies and go and Splash in Muddy Puddles – “like Peppa Mummy”.
Sigh.
Made for some great Kodak moments though, and as you know, I am ALL about those 🙂
On the eee-pad, Master J’s favourite game is “Find Polly” where you go from room to room in Peppas house to find an irritating parrot with an even more irritating squawk. He LOVES it! Go figure. Maybe it appeals to the Hide and Seek game he adores with his brother – he uses his nouse and logic until he finds that bloody parrot! Its the Peppa magic – who knows?
Peppa has been extremely frustrating for the same five year old in that she can whistle. He is determined to whistle “like Peppa Mummy”. I’m not laughing but she is still one up on him, despite his best perseverance.
My poor G Man has been one-upped by a Pink Pig with a suspicious snout 🙂
Both Boys have mastered the Dinosaur “Raawww” complete with Dino-actions. They terrorise each other around the house for hours on end with it, and its pretty basic, seriously.
Boys.
One of G Mans favourite games in the school playground is to play the Dinosaur Game for which I am fairly sure the other kids have George Pig to blame. Sorry about that.
Poor Mr Point Five – I am fairly certain one of the main reasons he went on his diet six months ago was because of the episode where Granny and Grandpa Pig build Peppa and George a cubby house and they decide on their secret entry password – you KNOW what it was, don’t you?
THEN they turned to me and said, see Mummy, just like OUR Daddy!!?!!
Poor Daddy Pig, ooops I mean Daddy.
Our dinner at home is even timed around her so I can get it cooked in peace at 5pm!
God help ABC 4 Kids if they mess with that schedule 🙂
***********
…..the word from the guys over at Peppa Pig:
Peppa Pig is loved by parents and kids for her mischievous sense of humour and the life lessons explored in a fun way? Check out the Peppa Pig website and Peppa’s Official Facebook page for printables, event updates and products available in time for Christmas.
(For the record, the games on the website are pretty cool if you don’t have an eee-pad or an i-thingy – I’m a bit nervous to show my two or I will never get my computer back to blog again! And the facebook page look great for some last minute stocking filler ideas!)
AND – Did you know that Peppa Pig is also a massive supporter of the Australian charity,
Life’s Little Treasures Foundation?
Over the coming year Peppa Pig will be the brand ambassador for Life’s Little Treasures Foundation to raise funds that will support families with babies born prematurely or sick.

Well i’d be winning this for my niece. Although my kids love Peppa and i love Grandpa.
My niece loves them sooooo much she’s picked up an accent!!
My 2 year old has learned to lie on the floor, kick her legs in the air, and roar with laughter (just like the Peppa Pig family at the end of the show), but only when SHE says something she thinks is funny!
My miss nearly 3 has learnt to ‘dance like a beautiful swan’! SNORT!!! LOL.
She does an adorable interprative dance just like ‘my Peppa’!
Even tho Peppa is a little rude at times she teaches kids about all different types of children and that each friend has a unique trait that makes them special!
OMG…this is the best competition EVER!. I have major Peppa Pig fans in my house. My Miss (almost) Three is learning lots of things from Peppa and her family. Firstly, she calls me ‘Mummy Pig’ and her father ‘Daddy Pig’ which she thinks is funny and I think is kinda cute. She knows the intro music off by heart and sings it around the house (yes I admit that Peppa Pig has done some babysitting in my house over the past 12 months!) My older daughter also loves Peppa Pig too and suggested to her pregnant Prep teacher to name her new baby George, just like Peppa’s brother! Plus not to forget that all three kids have learnt that hilarious Peppa Pig family snort and love trying it out to make each other laugh 🙂 Thanks Peppa Pig for teaching our family so much xx
We love the ee-pad app Peppa’s Holiday. My kids love making the icecream and pizza. One ee-pad means they have learnt to share! Ha ha

Oh my Little Miss 3 would just so love to win
From the printable pages, she’s learnt to colour in
She checks Peppa’s Advent Calendar at this time of year
Clicking on the date brings her lots of cheer
She plays computer games, her favourite’s Puddle Splash
And when she hears the theme song, she comes running in a flash!
She really adores Peppa, this would be the best surprise
Kayla would be delighted if we won this prize!
(Email is kookla123@yahoo.com Thank you for the opportunity!!)
HUGE hit in this house for sure!!
Both Miss (almost) 4 and Miss 2 adore her. In fact, one of the first things that Miss 2 (at around 18 months) learnt to say clearly was “Dine’saur…Rarr” hehe.
And everytime, without fail, that Peppa comes on TV, Miss 4 insists the whole family drop whatever they’re doing so we can all snort through the intro song together. She’s Peppa Pig and Miss 2 is George and of course we’re Mummy and Daddy Pig 🙂
Completely obsessed!!
Miss 2 has so far only learnt that jumping in muddy puddles thing. :/
Ok when you’re at home. Not so good when you’re on your way to the shops!
When my little Miss was 2 she was uninterested in books so I bought some Peppa Pig stories and one with nursery rhymes. Now she can “read” word for word every book and can sing all the nursery rhymes out of Peppa’s book from memory. On her recent 3rd birthday she got a Peppa Wii game and has gone from not being able to point the control properly at the TV to being able to set the Wii up and do all the games herself….she’s better on it than me even! Her colouring-in skills are fantastic thanks to lots of practice on Peppa Pig colouring pages. Basically to get her to try something or do something I just need to relate it to Peppa and I’m on a winner, so thanks Peppa Pig!
Hmmm my boys would start saying stuff and I wad like..where on earth,do they get that….then I would hear it on an episode of peppa. My eldest when finished a game or a job will say “mission accomplished” !!!!!
Miss Olivia, 5yrs has learnt that pigs get to have lots of fun, just like kids.
Oh, to splash in mud puddles is the ultimate delight, accompanied by a giggle, lots of laughter and a great big snort. The girls have decided to communicate by snorting. Cute for 10 minutes then mighty annoying after that. Every boy toy is called George and they insist on wearing gumboots, even in summer.
They have learned that life is pretty snort-tastic.
Peppa Pig is a lot of fun, my kids run to the tv when her show comes on.
My youngest loves to sing the song, the louder the better all day long.
She helps the kids to understand, that everybody is different where opinions stand.
Tolerance and acceptance are important lessons, and we should always remember to count our blessings.
P erhaps she’s cheeky and not quite PC
E xcept she’s generous, and always good fun
P eppa taught my girl to be careful with her baby brother
P lus she’s a good sharer, we call on her example all the time!
A nd most of all, Peppa shows us we can special in lots of different ways.
LOVE this giveaway, we were so disappointed to miss the Peppa Pig live show when it came around.

My 2 year old daughter is such a huge fan of Peppa Pig. She gets so excited whenever Peppa comes on Tv or when she she’s Peppa merchandise in the shops. She has learned to snort like Peppa, which although is a bit disgusting is also a bit cute haha. One of her favourite things is to jump in muddy puddles though and I have no doubt where she got that from 🙂
That little pig has taught my whole family a wide variety of skills! She has taught my 13yr old to hide away in the shadows at 5pm so that nobody will notice that he is secretly watching instead of setting the table. He has also learnt the art of denial if he is caught having a little chuckle at one of the jokes. My 5 year old has learnt how to think creatively as she is making sense of the more subtle jokes like the interactions between Daddy Pig and Daddy Wolf, the references to Mr Bull in a China Shop and Miss Rabbit being the busiest person in town. My 4 year old has learnt how to roar very loudly like a dinosaur and roll around the floor laughing. My 2 year old has learnt to blame any noises coming from mouths and bottoms on Daddy Pig. My 4 month old has learnt that he is safe to roll around on the floor for at least 10 minutes without being stepped on while all children are glued to the television (that is until the end and they all simultaneously drop and roll with him). My husband has learnt that singing the Peppa Pig theme just before one of the children dissolves into a complete meltdown will usually diffuse the situation as they join in with a snort. Finally I have learnt that if I need to pour myself a glass of wine to make it through witching hour, I need to get that task done in those glorious few minutes that the rest of the house becomes hypnotised by that boisterous little pig.
My 18 month old has learnt how to make animal noises and my 4 year old has learnt that jumping up and down in muddy puddles and getting messy won’t hurt him. He gets quite anxious about not being in control and peppa pig gives him confidence
“Dinosaur ROAR”. My sweet little angel is so in love with George. “Fairy, Fairy, Fairy” then after that “Dinosaur Roar”.
She had a new peppa pig nightie the other week and was in tears as she couldn’t find “George?” Even in the middle of the night I could hear her sulking her little heart out “George? George? George?” Morning came, out I got her out of the cot. “Dinosaur Roar”
So thanks sweet Peppa Pig. My fairy princess has turned into a dinosaur crazy little girl and can’t even blame her brother for it (as she only has a sister)
What a wonderful gift to win! When I am trying to get my son (2 yr old) to sleep, he keeps being silly and laughing. I tell him it is not funny and he must go to sleep. He replies “It’s a bit funny”…. just like when Daddy pig fell into the pool On Holidays. It is very hard to keep a serious face with that response and his cheeky grin! One thing they haven’t learnt to do properly is snort like the pigs.. they make a similar noise through their throats… but it is really hard to teach toddlers to snort using their nose (probably a good thing!) Thanks for the opportunity to win this!
Like your boys, my little boy (3.5) has learned jumping in puddles like Peppa Pig. Except unlike your boys who kept relatively clean, he and his best friend actually jumped in a really muddy puddle when the local playground left their sprinklers on overnight. And that muddy puddle multiplied in size as they jumped, fell, skidded and swam in mud just like it does on Peppa Pig. We got stared at for letting our kids play in mud but gosh they had the best time. And we have photos to prove it of course haha!
My son, Master H, is so obsessed with the show! At 2.5yrs he sings the theme song (including the snorts!) and shouts out “muddy puddles” every time it rains.
The obvious – jumping in muddy puddles (as demostrated yesterday during a massive storm) and snorting!!
Love Peppa Pig!
We have two very loyal and dedicated Peppa Pigs fans in our house. Miss 5 has learnt how to sing Frere Jacques, in FRENCH, which impresses the grandparents no end (thanks Delphine Donkey!) while little miss 2 has developed a deep love and affection for her gumboots, previously objects of intense dislike, which makes school drop off/pick up a million times more tolerable than previous. Well played Peppa!
My youngest daughter Sierra,
Is Peppa obsessed,
Sometimes I wonder,
If it’s a curse or we’re blessed….
It happens every morning,
When she first gets out of bed,
I take off her Peppa pjs,
Then a familiar word it is said…
”Peppa!!!” is the word,
She says it so clear,
It’s her favourite word,
Yes to her it is dear-
Then she runs to her drawers,
And chooses her pink pig pretties,
Anything without goes unworn,
Which is such a pity…
Peppa undies then the shirt,
And a cute peppa skirt,
And what do you know?
In her hair a cute Peppa bow…
Yes the biggest thing she has learnt,
From her precious Peppa after all,
Is that if there is no pink pig on it,
It is not worth wearing at all…
But although I complain,
I really don’t mind,
Because putting them on makes her smile,
A reward of the very best kind 😉
