20 Brand spanking new Check out some new and exciting products in the current market WOW! STUFF RRP: £34.99 Wow! Stuff, known for inventing some of the world’s most innovative tech-toys for today’s tech savvy kids, has turned its hand to Hasbro’s Peppa Pig and the result is the ultimate Peppa Pig car. Wow! Stuff’s latest offering, launching in Europe in October 2020 and North America for Spring 2021, is the Peppa Pig Clever Car. Clever because of the obstacle avoidance technology it employs which detects anything in front of the car – such as a cushion, chair leg or other household fixtures – and veers around them, while peeping its horn and educating the child that avoiding crashes is preferred to creating them. Before setting off the child is challenged with matching the colour of the characters to the colour of the car seats and ensuring Mummy or Daddy pig is in the driving seat. Successfully matching the colours is met with the narrator congratulating the child’s skill before the Clever Car sets off.

We wanted to create something very special and timeless, drawing on the heritage of both of our brands and we wanted to make sure there would be something for everyone, which is why prices start from just £25.” www.rachelriley.co.uk an d www.clair-de-lune.co.uk.
