These stories are absolutely adorable and the creative mind of Julia Donaldson and the artistic talent of Axel Scheffler completely capture you and your child&#8217;s attention and imagination. Both my 2 and 6 year old have even been retelling the story in playtime and recreating their own versions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Then we discovered the DVDs, which are adorable! We planned all week for a special movie night for The Gruffalo. Then the next week we watched The Gruffalo&#8217;s Child. It&#8217;s been adorable watching my daughters recreating the Gruffalo around the house. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed aligncenter is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube wp-embed-aspect-4-3 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"The Gruffalo by Julia Donaldson.
