FINALLY! We have been waiting for Peppa and Peppa Merchandise for 2 years now! Cant find ANYTHING in US (strange, isnt it?).
My kids LOVE Peppa Pig!!! We never tire of the show and it is on every day. I am shocked that I cannot locate any Peppa Pig DVDs anywhere. I have found them on websites, but what I have found can only be played on a region 2 dvd player- meaning, only play on UK-specific dvd players. Anyone know when the show will be coming out on dvd in the US? This would be a perfect Christmas present for my kids.
