*Ad-gifted: We were kindly gifted the Chu Chu TV Peek & Play Surprise Eggs in exchange for this post.
Little Dottie is nearly 23 months old now and each day her development is astonishing. She’s learning more words from her sister each day. She has a more reserved character than her 4 year old sister and will happily sit and play for a while if she’s left alone that is! When her sister is at preschool, Little Dottie loves to watch her own shows like Chu Chu TV. Which is full of bright colourful and upbeat nursery rhymes and kid’s songs. Heads shoulders knees and toes is a winner!
We have YouTube on our TV so I love to get involved in the singing with Little Dottie. But Chu Chu Tv is also suitable for use on the tablet. With it being a highly educational show I’m happy for her to watch it during her tablet time.
These colourful toys, from Character Online are new for this Spring we have been sent to check out are inspired by the hit YouTube channels that make up Chu Chu TV which has a combined subscriber rate globally in excess of 100 million!!
Chu Chu TV Peek & Play Surprise Eggs – Chu Chu TV Train – £14.99
All aboard! Hop on the Peek & Play Surprise Eggs Chu Chu TV Train!
We love the brightly-coloured steam engine. It has great moveable wheels and two carriages/cars that will link onto the train and each other to form the train. Little Dottie found linking the train and the cars together fascinating. Perfect for hand-eye coordination.
If you press the chimney on the train you can hear different sounds. Plus the well known Chu Chu TV song “Johny Johny Yes Papa”.
The Chu Chu TV Train comes with one exclusive Peek and Play Surprise Egg featuring Mr Harlo the fabulous elephant character. Who is, of course, the train conductor! What I really like about the train set is that it’s fully compatible with all Peek and Play Surprise Eggs. The train holds one egg and each car holds one each. The eggs have the cutest smiley faces!
Little Dottie finds the eggs easy to open and close. She loves the feel of the 3D characters inside, which is great for improving manual dexterity and motor skills.

Chu Chu TV Peek & Play Surprise Eggs – ABC Starter Set – £12.99
The Peek & Play Surprise Eggs are like blind bag toys for toddlers. There was great excitement as I unraveled the outer wrapping on the eggs to reveal a smiley face on the eggs inside. Little Dottie wasn’t quite able to peel the brightly coloured wrapper off, but older kids I’m sure would find it OK.
When you turn the egg around you will discover a letter. This letter hints at the animal inside the egg when you crack it open!
The ABC Starter Set includes 5 eggs with unique colours containing the animal figures inside. We are enjoying learning the alphabet with Alligator, Bear, Cat, Dog and the Elephant surprise eggs.
Did you know that playing with the eggs can teach motor skills, letter recognition, and colour matching? They are bright, bold and chunky – perfect for little hands.

I think the Chu Chu TV Peek & Surprise eggs will make a fantastic alternative gift for Easter.
