reflect the ups - and downs - of toddler life. Major new animation
series launching on Milkshake in 2021 Pip and Posy are best friends
- they love to play, and make things, and have fun. But just
occasionally they get cross or sad, and sometimes things go wrong
that are beyond their control. And that's when kindness and
understanding - and a cuddle - make everything better. In The
Little Puddle, Pip comes to play at Posy's house. The friends have
such a fun time playing that Pip forgets he needs to go to the loo,
and soon there's a little puddle on the floor. But everyone has
accidents sometimes, so Posy mops it up, and lends him some
clothes. The next time Pip needs a wee, he does it in the potty all
by himself. There are loads of titles to collect . . .The Super
Scooter, The Big Balloon, The Bedtime Frog - and many more!
