Toy Characters - Wombles



Colleen and Julie stand in front of a womble handkerchief with their womble toys.   The plastic womble toys are pencil sharpeners that were available in the 1970's.   The soft womble toys were produced for McDonalds in 1999.  The soft womble with the blue top is Alderney.


The wombles live under Wimbledon Common.  The Wombles are the tidiest creatures in the world and they spend a great deal of their time clearing up all the rubbish which people leave lying about.  This is a quote from one of Elisabeth Beresford’s Womble books.

Colleen and Julie have turns reading aloud to each other from the book called, Tomsk and the Tired Tree by Elisabeth Beresford.  Published in 1975.

The Wombles - Shansi’s Surprise – Holder Children’s books – 1998.
