Coming to DVD from 20th Century Fox Home
Entertainment is the delightful young piglet along with family and friends with
PEPPA PIG: When I Grow Up.
In class, Peppa Pig is hearing all about the choices her
classmates are making as to what they want to be when they grow up. From being
a policeman to a teacher, each also likes the choice of telling people what to
do. Peppa is upset because she doesn’t know what she wants to be even if little
brother George wants to be dinosaur.
Peppa and her family join the local flying vet to visit sick
animals and doing it in an airplane! They soon get a call from their own home
as baby ducks are stuck on their roof. The vet teaches Peppa to quack at the
little babies to get them home to their parents on the pond.
Ms. Gazelle teaches her students to appreciate music by
using their imaginations to describe what they hear. Peppa decides that the
music reminds her of jumping up and down in a puddle and her friends don’t
hesitate to join her while they create their own song.
Danny the dog is having a pirate themed birthday party and
Peppa is thrilled. Taking the ship up stream they are all looking for the
golden treasure. Grandpa Pig helps with the game and catches Grand-dad Dog
taking the treasure!
Mommy Pig is going to the local firehouse to meet with other
Mommy’s and Daddy Pig is off with his friends for a bit of football. Peppa and
George go with Mommy Pig and get to see the new fire engine! Peppa is surprised
when they get a real life fire call and it is at their home.
Tittles the Turtle is found up a tree while Pedro and Peppa
rescue him but not before he gets a bumped nose. The doctor quickly shows up to
fix his nose but can’t fix Pedro’s glasses. After fixing glasses, there is
trouble with the dentists’ car that Doctor Dog can fix. It seems there is
someone in the town for every situation.
The class is preparing for showing talent and Peppa is
having difficulty picking just one to share with her friends. Pedro shows his
magic, Emily Elephant plays the flute and Rebecca Bunny shares her silly noises
and all of this worries Peppa.
Peppa, George and Mommy Pig prepare to take their first
helicopter ride with Ms. Rabbit and they are having a blast, well maybe not so
much for Mommy Pig. Daddy pig is having a fun time at the local carnival and
when its time to get home, his car gets stuck in the mud and he has to call for
help.
The police come to the school and teaches the students the
do’s and don’ts of bicycle riding. Even teacher Ms. Gazelle learns a few
lessons about properly being safe on a bicycle.
Daddy Pig got his days all mixed up thinking it is Saturday
and Mommy has to work on her computer sending Peppa off to play group. At
group, they decide to open a play store and help customers with what they need
or think they need. When the family comes home they discover that when work is
over there is plenty of time for play.
Peppa and the class learn what an ambulance does from Dr.
Brown Bear and how it helps people in their community. But what happens when
the doctor needs an ambulance himself? Ms. Gazelle and the entire class step in
to make sure Dr. Brown Bear gets the help he needs.
The class is making their own music with rattles, all kinds
of drums, maracas, cymbals, castanets, triangles and tambourines. Ms. Gazelle
must teach them the difference between a bunch of wild noise and working
together to make fantastic music. The best part is playing for their parents
and surprised when the parents join in.

Peppa Pig and her family have made their way into my family
and spend every day with us. My granddaughter loves the series and even has the
toys to play knowing each characters name. That is how you know that a family
program has made an impact, when a child embraces each character like family.
The series teaches such valuable lessons about life,
friendship, family, loyalty, learning, respect and loads of fun! That is what
drew me to the series from the beginning. The fact that Peppa and her brother
George have the love of an extended family is very important for kids to see –
and it doesn’t matter if they learn it from a cute little pig.
PEPPA PIG: When I Grow Up give children a chance to think
about that very question without it becoming too serious. Instead they learn
about the choices and ask the questions that could possibly plant the seed for
their dreams to one day come true.
In the end – if there is a job puddle jumping then Peppa is your
pig!
