Pop-up

Back to the kid stuff

My friends’ daughter is totally into Maisy. I’d never heard of this mouse character before, but after having a few shows play in the background, it seems pretty innocuous.

There doesn’t seem to be any of the annoying chanting of Barney/Teletubbies/Boohbah/ etc. etc, and there’s a great heavy line illustrational style.

There’s also some nice product tie-ins, like this pop-up book activity center – Maisy’s Farm.

It folds out and has lots of cardboard props, along with a mini-book where you can actually pull a story together with the book acting as a set.
