3 yo really into Paw Patrol - is this normal?

[Anonymous]

My 3 year old DD loves Paw Patrol. She watches about 20 minutes of it once a week, and yet she talks about it all the time, loves to pretend she is the characters, focuses most of her imaginative play on it, etc. I'd guess that 30% of her waking thoughts/conversation are related to Paw Patrol. Is this within the realm of normal toddler behavior?

Yes. When my 4 year old was 3. She was obsessed and had never even seen an episode. Someone gave her a play set and she saw some commercials and it was an obsession. She’s moved back to doc mcstuffins and vamperina these days

LOL yes, it’s normal.

It’s weird to us because we find Paw Patrol so silly and BORING.

My son’s paw patrol obsession was only broken when another child at school told him it was for babies. But he would still watch it for hours given the chance.

My 3.5 year old is obsessed with Mickey & Co, though her current watching obsession is Peppa Pig. Before that it was about split between Doc McStuffins and Mickey Mouse Clubhouse.

My 4 yo has worn a crown every day for about a year now. Completely obsessed. Sometimes I wonder if she really believes that she's Queen Elsa.

3 year olds love Paw Patrol. Fact of life. Be prepared for them to like it until kindergarten...

My dd’s introduction to Paw Patrol was as the theme to a friend’s birthday party. At that point she hadn’t even watched one episode, but she became obsessed after that. It lasted a good two or three years.

At that age, my kid had never seen it and talked about it all the time because it was all they played at recess at school. It took me a while (and another parent) to figure out what the heck she was talking about.

Very. My son was obsessed with it. He will be fine. 😊

Of course.

Uh, they are puppies and that's great.

And then they RIDE AROUND IN COOL VEHICLES.

Riding around in cool vehicles is awesome, but it's even better when puppies do it!

What's not to like?

Even when my son felt that he was “too old” for Paw Patrol, he didn’t want to give away any of the toys (and we had a LOT of them). Eventually, we found out that my friend’s little girl was a fan and he gave most of them ever so lovingly to her.
