Everyone’s favourite bunny, Peter Rabbit has landed in time for Easter.
Discover ‘The World of Beatrix Potter’ this Easter with Orchard Toys ‘Peter Rabbit In Mr. McGregor’s Garden’ 25-piece Jigsaw Puzzle — the perfect choice of Easter gift for your little Easter bunny aged 3 years upwards.
The never-ending choice of Easter eggs in supermarkets can be quite overwhelming at this time of year. The option of an egg-citing Peter Rabbit jigsaw puzzle is the healthier alternative! And I feel sure, that the parents of many pre-schoolers would ultimately choose an educational toy that will last longer than the Easter weekend, rather than a few overpriced chocolate eggs and what better gift to choose than a jigsaw puzzle – which ultimately is more positive for their dentition in the long term!
