Peppa Pig - New Shoes and Other Stories (Vol 3) [DVD]

Make no mistake, my 2 year old loves Peppa Pig. My limited experience of Peppa has, until now, been restricted to the odd episode on channel five, and before the DVD purchase, I'd have said "Peppa's OK, good but not great". Since the DVD purchase however, I too love Peppa Pig. What an parent wants from a kiddie DVD is 1) a distraction tool that will keep the little piggies happy and quiet for a while and b) some entertainment for the big piggies when they are forced to watch the DVD with the little piggies. New Shoes scores highly on both counts. Peppa also is a positive role model and the family relationships are nicely portrayed. The real highlight for me however, is Daddy Pig. He is a cracking comedy character, and single episodes fail to show just how stupid he is. This collection showcases Daddy Pig's clowning and stupidity to the full. It's worth buying the DVD just for the 'pancake on the head' and 'reading the map upside down' comedy moment
