Daddy Pig is daddy to Peppa and George and lives at home with them and Mummy Pig. He is very jolly and laughs all the time, especially when he plays with Peppa and George (although he can be a bit grumpy when he loses his glasses). Daddy pig’s nicknames for George and Peppa are his 'little piggies'.

Daddy Pig’s hobbies

Daddy Pig likes to read the paper and gets excited about trips in the car, although he isn’t as good at map reading as Mummy Pig. When Daddy Pig does the map reading, they always get lost and he gets very grumpy. He loves sitting on the sofa and watching TV.  Daddy Pig is very good at diving, plays football for the local team and is a world-record muddy puddle jumping champion. He has also raised a lot of money for the school roof and bus by participating in a sponsored fun run.

Daddy Pig’s favourite food

Daddy Pig loves cookies, cheese, spaghetti, chocolate cake and pumpkin pie. 

Daddy Pig’s dislikes

He doesn’t like to exercise and Peppa often teases him about his big round tummy. Daddy Pig’s response is that he is naturally fit and it’s all pure muscle. When Peppa encourages him to exercise he tries to put it off until the next day. He eventually manages two press-ups and seems quite pleased but Peppa wants him to do 100 – impossible! Daddy Pig also doesn’t like heights or losing his glasses.

Daddy Pig’s DIY skills

Daddy Pig is not very good at DIY although he calls himself the “DIY expert of the house”. One time, he made a very big hole in the wall when he tried hang a picture frame, but he mended it quickly before Mummy Pig got back home, making a lot of mess in the process.
