Advantages: Colourful
Disadvantages: Expensive

...My niece is really likes the Cbeebies programme ?In the Night Garden? so when I saw this set of characters I decided to buy them for her 4th birthday which was in August. I?m sure everyone is at least vaguely familiar with the show. The In the Night Garden website states that the show is ?best described as a modern televisual interpretation of a nursery rhyme picture book. It is about a magical place that exists between waking and sleeping in a child?s imagination? It?s very popular with young children but most of the adults I know are quite confused by it all. This set of characters is made by Playskool and there are six in the set. They characters included are: Iggle Piggle and his blanket, Makka Pakka, Upsy Daisy, and the three Tombiliboo?s.

...In The Night Garden Figure Pack Story In A Box..... When Jack was going through his short In the Night Garden phase, i thought i would get him some toys to play with from the rather large collection of merchandise for sale from this programme. I got him far too many things to be honest and this set of smal plastic figurines was just one of many. The pack itself was fairly good value as it was on a sale from the Early Learning Centre, costing around £11. Included in the pack are all the main characters from the programme. There is Upsy Daisy, Iggle Piggle, Makka Pakka and all three of the Tombliboos, Un, Oo and Ee.

They are suitable for use... Read review

...After seeing and finding out for myself how popular the in the night garden TV show on cbeebies had become and how addicted my 2 year old daughter had become with watching the show, at the time I thought it would be a good idea to buy her the character figurines from eBay for around £11.50. When the characters finally come by royal mail my daughter was so excited that she even started singing some of the songs from the show. In the box are 6 popular character figurines from the main TV programme such as Upsy Daisy, Iggle Piggle, Makka Pakka, and all 3 of the tombliboos, -Un, Oo and Ee. They are made from idestructive plastic that is quite strong and versatile and sure is made to last for a good few years. My daughter loves imaginative play as this was the perfect buy for her and has spent many good hours playing with the figurines... Read review
