MB: Peppa’s Inspiration 🐷💫

Read time: 362 words, 1 minute.

Did you know that Peppa Pig’s creator, Neville Astley, was inspired by his own parenting experience?

Peppa’s world of muddy puddles & giggles wasn’t just born from imagination.

It was inspired by his real-life observations of children’s joy in the simple things.

Sometimes, the best stories come from the most everyday moments. 🐷💫
