Igglepiggle and His Red Blanket
Have you ever seen Igglepiggle without his red blanket? Igglepiggle plays one of the most important roles in the narratives he is physical and energetic like a well-loved teddy, always jumping and bouncing. He's curious and adventurous, but also vulnerable and modest and despite his energy, he is often in need of reassurance and comfort and always carries his red blanket with him. His blanket offers him support and comfort.
Any sort of surprise can prove to be too much for him and he simply falls over! But he quickly sits back up and starts again.

Help Igglepiggle Find His Blanket
This interactive Igglepiggle includes 10 games in the box. Blanket Time Igglepiggle features four games that he will play with your child: Hide and Seek, Who’s There, Dance Along With Igglepiggle and Help Igglepiggle find his blanket where your child will have to help Igglepiggle find his blanket, once returned to him he can sense that he is holding it. Kids will love the sounds and sayings from the In the Night Garden program that this toy makes, especially as it includes all the main characters. This interactive dancing, singing, talking plush is sure to delight any little fans of the program. They can even snuggle down with this soft teddy, so he makes a great companion during the day and at bedtime!

Customer Reviews

Disappointing
We bought dancing Iggle-Piggle for our little boy for Christmas and like others we were disappointed. There is supposedly some kind of sensor in Iggle-Piggles hand that recognises that he has his blanket - this didn't work on ours, it didn't work on the second one we exchanged it for either! This coupled with the painfully slow reaction times and the uncuddliness of Iggle-Piggle meant he went back to the shop. Can't say we are missing him!

Not a hit in our house!!
We bought this for our daughter for Christmas thinking she would be delighted as she is a huge In the Night Garden fan. We were sadly disappointed, Iggle Piggle does not hold her attention and he has sat gathering dust in her room! A complete waste of money! The interaction part is very slow and his jerky movements are not entertaining enough. Thankfully she has a collection of the plush characters which she plays with daily, I wish we had just stuck to those!

Behold the motorised blanket loving blue one!
My daughter loves this toy - but the truth is, she's love the cheaper less functional more cuddly one just as much. The box boasts it has ten games, but they've never been played. She likes to push the button and listen to the music/talking, but like I say, the Iggle Piggle which is half the price of this one does that - it just doesn't move!

So, in a nutshell: This is a good toy, but I feel it's a bit pricey for what it is, especially when the added functions this one has maybe won't seem as exciting to your child as they seem on the box! But if you love the sound of a motor turning over for a few seconds before Iggle Piggle does anything - this is perfect! ;o)
