The Chestnut Raccoon Family
FATHER DURWOOD CHESTNUT and his entire family are all a little eccentric. He says that's why they're so much fun. It's never a dull moment at the Chestnut household, with something strange and bizarre happening.
MOTHER PANSY CHESTNUT is forever getting mixed up. Once she made a Christmas cake at Easter. Another time she started hanging the clean crockery on the washing line!
BROTHER GROVER CHESTNUT is always asking crazy questions. What time is tomorrow? Where is up? The teachers try to avoid him in school when he puts his hand up to ask a question.
SISTER MYRTLE CHESTNUT once threw a surprise party – for herself!
BABY BROTHER RICKY CHESTNUT sleeps all day and then wakes up at night. He's always complaining that he's too cold in summer and too hot in winter.
BABY SISTER AMY CHESTNUT is always getting her words muddled up. Once she asked for a mottle of bilk instead of a bottle of milk!
BABY SISTER MOLLY CHESTNUT always eats her food the wrong way around. She likes to have her dessert first, followed by her main meal!
The Chestnut Raccoon family are one of the Original families from when Sylvanian Families were first launched. In the UK the only way to collect the family was through the token collector club. All figures, furniture and buildings had tokens on with various points on. When you had collected enough tokens you could send off for the family or the babies. Eventually more families were released as exclusives to the token collector club, but the Chestnut family were the longest running, lasting until the end of the scheme. When released in Japan the family had a light grey marking on their face, instead of the black markings which the UK version had.
