►Father Cuthbert Porridge is the best toymaker in Sylvania.  His dolls houses and dolls house furniture are every girls' dream presents.  Every boy would like one of Cuthbert's wooden train sets or one of his cuddly Teddy bears.  Cuthbert also makes a mess, but as he says, "You can't make an omelet without breaking eggs."

►Mother Lauren Porridge likes everything neat and tidy, which is why she will not venture anywhere near Cuthbert's workshop.  The thought of all the mess upsets her.  She does like all the wonderful toys (the end result of all his hard work and mess).

►Sister Chloe Porridge likes having all here friends to say for a sleep over, just so they can all play with her large dolls house and furniture.  Chloe and her friends have made their own curtains and carpets for the house.

►Brother Jack Porridge likes to work with his dad in the workshop, especially when there is painting to be done.  Jack likes a mess and often gets more paint on his paws and face than on the toy he is painting for his father.
