If you have a toddler or young child, chances are you’ve heard the Paw Patrol theme song a time or two. Your kids might even seem to have every Paw Patrol toy ever made. But if you’re still in need of some pup-tastic gift ideas for your Zuma, Rocky and Rubble fans, this guide can help.
Who’s watching this show?
Nick Jr.’s hit show Paw Patrol is catered to kids ranging from around 2 to 5 years old, but Ryder, the main human character, is 10. Preschoolers get to follow along as Ryder and his six puppy pals rescue their neighbors who find themselves in need of help. Parents love the fact that this show teaches their kids the importance of problem solving and showing kindness to others.
The characters you need to know
Ryder
Ryder is the main human character on Paw Patrol. He’s the 10-year-old boy who leads the pack of Paw Patrol puppies on their adventures and missions. He drives an ATV.
Chase
Chase is a German shepherd who drives a police car and acts as a spy. He’s also the most mature of the pups and is the first to accept missions from Ryder.
Marshall
Marshall is the Dalmatian fire dog who drives a firetruck and responds to rescue missions.
Skye
Skye is a cockapoo who flies a helicopter and has built-in wings in her backpack.
Rubble
Rubble is one of the favorite Paw Patrol characters. He’s an English bulldog who works on construction projects and drives a bulldozer. Rubble loves to eat and is often the funniest pup on the show.
Zuma
Zuma is a chocolate Labrador retriever, so it makes sense that he’s also the water rescue pup. He drives a hovercraft that can transform into a submarine.
Rocky
Rocky is the only mixed breed of the bunch. He loves to recycle and therefore drives around a recycling truck. His quirk is that he’s terrified of water.
