A giveaway for your Peppa Pig-lovin’ peeps! {ended}

December 13, 2013 by Stacey 56 Comments

This was a tough one! I wanted you all to win. But congratulations Chrissy.PEPPA PIG GIVEAWAY!

We’re huge fans of Peppa at VMHQ – kiddos and parents alike! She’s the little pink pig who goes on adventures, learns lessons, and has a ton of fun, all in five minutes – what’s not to love?

She’s been so useful to us on plane rides, when we drove around New Zealand for a week, as a distraction break from duo toddler tantrums (and fights!), on birthday cakes, and in books. We love the simple graphics, the cute messages, and the sneaky funny jokes.

The girls love the show, Abby loves to sing along to the theme song, and love naming all the members of the family like Peppa does. I also get called “Mummy Pig” occasionally, but it’s so hilariously cute. Pepper has just learned to say her name, and will point to Peppa in books and on TV with a little “be-ba!”, which is, of course, adorable.

I’m also grateful to Peppa Pig for allowing me a full five minutes (or sometimes 10!) to finish unloading the dishwasher in peace, or to fold the washing without two “helpers” redistributing the folded clothes to the floor.

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 www.peppapig.com.au and their Facebook page  for printables (our favourite), event updates and products available in time for Christmas.

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.

If you’ve got some Peppa-lovers in your house too, then leave a comment on this post answering the question “what do you love about Peppa Pig?”. You could win a Peppa Pig prize pack, consisting of a Peppa Pig Space Ship ($54.99), a Peppa Pig Push-Along Pram ($29.95), and a Peppa Pig Tote Bag ($14.95).

A winner will be chosen next Wednesday, December 18, at noon Queensland time. If we get in quick, your prize should arrive just in time for Christmas! (depending on Australia Post, of course). Australian residents only (sorry!), this is a game of skill, not chance. Winner will be notified via email and named on this post.

Good luck! I’d love to hear why you love Peppa too.

*disclaimer: we also got some pretty sweet Peppa Pig goodies too – the Deluxe Playhouse, a wheeled bag, and some clothes. yay!

    What do i love about Peppa Pig? The fact that she lets me get 10 minutes of cooking/cleaning/resting done at a time! She memorizes my little one and I dash into the kitchen to wash up or prepare dinner… or pour a wine 😉

    We’re taking a 3 hour plane trip with our almost 2 year old next week. I love Peppa Pig because she will give me a modicum of peace on that flight (plus I don’t mind watching a bit of Peppa Pig myself!) Everyone in this house is lovingly referred to as pig – Mummy pig, Daddy pig and Daisy pig!

    Not only is Mr3 a huge Peppa Pig fan, his parents are! We love that the show gently/fondly points out the absurdities of family life (the episode with Daddy pig at the top of the hill trying to start a bike race for the kids, Mumma pig working from home and finally letting George play 1 game on the computer only for Daddy pig and Peppa to walk in and comment ‘so that’s what you’ve been doing all day!), but points the absurdity out with fondness rather than being lewd, crude or banal (as some other shows are). So far we’ve avoided branded stuff with our kids but when we all enjoy the show so much that their language has entered ours (hello clever clogs!) and Mr 3’s Santa requests this year were a ‘giant robot and box of Peppa pig stuff…). Not sure whether Santa makes giant robots (although he does do Peppa Pig toothbrushes, crayons and a magazine). Mr 3 would be overjoyed with anything Peppa pig but the big stuff would be phenomenal for him. ‘Blah, blah blah’ perhaps it’s me who ‘talks too much!’
    Ps love your blog! (From a fellow mum who’s trying to find that healthy, fun, sane, getting back to paid work etc balance)

    We’re big fans of Peppa pig! I have to say my favourite charaters are Miss Rabbit (talk about being superrabbit – i love that she does nearly every job) and Grampy Rabbit “it’s better then real, it’s pretend!”. We often use Peppa on long car trips, when we have waited for an appt for an hour or more and definitely on plane trips – everyone is happy.

    At first I didn’t quite get the attraction to pepper pig,that is until I sat down and watched an episode with my daughter and son. It’s been written very well as the adult humour is a crack! Mummy and daddy pig clearly have the same issues as most married couples and the kids seem oblivious to this. I have spent many a night and day making peppers head in cake for little peoples birthdays and feel like pepper and I have an ‘understanding’. I bless pepper at around 5 when I have 2 whinging toddlers (and a screaming baby) wanting dinner and are under my feet or fighting! I hear from the lounge a scream of excitement and I know it’s pepper time. We also have the beauty of series linking and recording the episodes (much to my husbands annoyance when tries to record something adult and our hard drive is full of pepper). So once again thank you to the pink little pig and her wee brother keeping my 2 occupied and keeping my sanity in tact at those moments during the day when I think I’m about to loose the plot!

    We love Peppa because she’s a cute little Pig and she has a family with marital issues that are made fun of in the same way that my husband and I make fun of the anomalies in our relationship. She doesn’t have some perfect made for tv family, it’s a bit more realistic than most tv shows. Not to mention her dress is the same as my daughters favourite one! and her brother loves Dinosaurs, which my girl is obsessed with.

    Miss 3: “Peppa is good ’cause she’s funny and smiley”

    Me: “I love Peppa Pig because she saves my sanity by allowing 10 minutes of me-time daily, which is only interrupted by my three children’s uncontrollable giggling and horrifically noisy OINKING!”

    I love Peppa Pig because all kids young and old like it, it’s a great show for boys and girls (which is rare), and they learn lots of stuff about life from it. When we travelled to New Zealand this year the kids knew what to expect at the airport and on the plane as it was just like Peppa!

    I like that parents can also enjoy a good giggle (snort!) while the kids obviously LOOOOVE Peppa Pig. It’s all about the simple but oh-so-good pleasures and funny moments in the everyday. We all love it when they’re laughing so much they have to throw themselves on the ground. The Peppa Pig licensed books and toys are always really nice too, and a great investment as the kids return to them time and again over years.

    Your Peppa pig give away is very timely. I don’t whether you’re aware of the Piers Ackerman controversy, in one of Pier’s regular anti-ABC rants he accused Peppa pig of feeding weird subliminal feminist views to young vulnerable minds. #Peppapig has become something of a leftist feminist superhero on Twitter. Who would have thunk it!

    My little girls both love her to pieces and I love watching the show with them too! There is something for all ages to get a giggle out of an episode. Thanks to Peppa my littlest who wasn’t interested in books can now ‘read’ her Peppa Pig books and recite all the nursery rhymes in her Peppa Pig nursery rhyme book. I love that I can get some housework done in peace with the Peppa DVD on. Also I can basically get them do and try anything if I involve Peppa for example …here try some different vegetables, they are on a Peppa plate and Peppa loves them!!

I love that Daddy Pig is the stereotypical dad with dad jokes. Mummy Pig is sensible and George is the baby bro that needs to be included in everything. Explains the family dynamics in a fun way.

    I love Miss Rabbit. She’s so industrious and even won the prize for industry from the peppa pig land queen! My 2yo can even recognise that Miss Rabbit works everywhere and chuckles at the episode where she faints when she’s finally recognised for her hard work! If any peppa pig writers are listening it’s kinda funny that you do insert feminist left wing propaganda in there too. I regularly lol, but do get your act together with introducing single parent and same sex parent families into your storylines ASAP. Kids need to realise not everyone has a mummy and a daddy pig the way it is portrayed on the show.

    For me, it’s the accents. Who wouldn’t like to have a teacher with a French accent like Madame Gazelle’s? Or have a bedtime story read by Daddy Pig in his plummy English. Best one is Dr Hamster (‘she’s loove-leh’). I’ve always wanted to live in the UK (one problem: Australian passport and no ancestry), so I can tolerate endless episodes of Peppa thanks to the glorious accents. Dora is another story…
