Ravensburger Paw Patrol Four Large Shaped Puzzles - Review

Both my children love reaching for a jigsaw puzzle when they are feeling a little bored and want something fun to do. We have a huge pile already in our house and they love the feeling of accomplishment that comes with seeing the full image at the end. It helps when it's a fun character that they like! 

Ravensburger very kindly sent E one of their Paw Patrol Four Large Shaped Puzzles sets and she was so excited to get started. Paw Patrol is one of her favourite shows with a special love of Everest and Skye. 

Inside the box you get 52 puzzle pieces in different sizes, depending on what puzzle they are for. One puzzle has 10 pieces, another 12, one 14 and finally one at 16 pieces. 

As E has only just turned four, I gave her a little help. She was able to split the pieces into piles happily, knowing which piece was for which puzzle just by looking at the image on the box. 

In the end, it took her no longer than around 30 minutes to complete all four, letting out a little shriek of excitement and pointing out which characters she could see. Each puzzle depicts a different scene and I liked the addition of words as, now she has started nursery, we are working on letter sounds. All four are full of colour and so pretty to look at. 

The Ravensburger Paw Patrol Four Large Shaped Puzzles retail at £9.99 and is suitable for children aged 3+. You can purchase your own at Amazon.

Weebles Paw Patrol Pull & Play Seal Island Playset - Review

My kids have recently become obsessed with watching Paw Patrol on Netflix so I knew they'd be thrilled to test out some character toys. Weebles were originally released in 1971 and I think everyone knows the "Weebles wobble but they don't fall down" jingle. I didn't own them when I was a child so I was excited to see that they had been refreshed with a new look for the younger generation and couldn't wait to finally get a chance to play with them with my children.

We received the Paw Patrol Pull & Play Seal Island Playset which comes with an exclusive Marshall Weeble and also two additional Weebles - Rocky and Chase. As soon as C saw the box he shouted, "It's Paw Patrol! Is it mine? Can I open it?" so first impressions were great! 

The set is a classic play pattern, it's easy to use and is tons of fun! The set itself is sturdy and doesn't require batteries which is something that I love! It has a path down to the jetty and when you set your Weeble at the top, it wobbles down to the bottom by itself. C's favourite aspect is the little boat attached by a string to the playset. You can place two Weebles in the boat, pull the boat out, press down on the seal's head and the boat will travel over to the playset. There is also a swing to place a Weeble in and button to press to make it, well, swing! Additionally, there are lots of circlular sites such as the one at the top of the tower that your Weebles can stand in. I really like the smaller boat which wibbles and wobbles even more than the Weeble!

  My children are almost 2 and 4 and they have been having so much fun with the set. I definitely think I will be buying the additional Paw Patrol Weebles characters to go along with the set. Watching C come out with little Paw Patrol sayings like, "Chase is on the case!" was so cute! I would definitely recommend this toy mostly for children aged around 3-5 years old but the playset itself is suitable for 18 months+.

The Paw Patrol Pull & Play Seal Island Playset retails at £29.99 and the additional Weeble characters are £4.99 each.


There will be a Paw Patrol Twitter Frenzy at the @UKMumsTV Twitter account using the #WeeblesPawPatrol hashtag on Wednesday 31st August so be sure to join in!
