Tired of the same ‘ole birthday party? Be the hostess with the most-est that your kids and their friends will enjoy! Be one of the first to have a party with Peppa Pig at The Little Gym, which includes everything needed for a memory-filled day while sparing parents the time-consuming hassles and pressure-filled process of planning a party. And the best part? A portion of the proceeds benefit Peppa’s Charity: Muddy Puddles Project, for pediatric cancer research.  
 
Entertainment One’s Peppa Pig joins The Little Gym to bring you the best birthday party for your little one! In this season of giving, a birthday party with Peppa teaches little ones to use their birthdays as a vehicle to donate to others. Guests may donate to The Muddy Puddles Project in lieu of or in addition to a gift for the birthday child.  What better way to introduce and reinforce “giving to others” to your children! For more information, contact your local Little Gym for details here.
