The De Burg Penguin Family
FATHER THAW DE BURG runs a specialist catering company, providing every possible need, be it for a wedding party, an anniversary celebration or a large summer picnic for the whole of Sylvania. Always smartly dressed, very deferential and politely spoken, he makes every customer feel special.
MOTHER PERMA DE BURG is the maitre d' in the family catering business, which is quite an unusual job for a lady, taking bookings and ensuring that all the customers enjoy their meals. She also writes out all the menus by hand in the most beautiful flowing script. She is the busiest person in Sylvania, running the business and the family home.
BROTHER FROST DE BURG is the waiter in the family business, when he is not working hard at school or playing football with his friends. He is very good at waiting on tables and all the customers love him. He is very nippy around the tables with his arms full of plates, rushing back and forth.
SISTER STORM DE BURG is top of her class at mathematics, lucky, because she looks after the familiy's business accounts in her spare time, after doing her school homework. All her column entries are in perfect straight lines, every column balancing to the penny, her accounts are a work of art.
BABIES POLAR, SNOW & BLUE DE BURG love ice cream, but have yet to decide which are their favorite flavours. This gives them the perfect excuse to sample the hundreds of different flavours available again and again!
The De Burg Penguin family were first released into the UK range by Flair in 2007. A few years later you were able to get the family set (not including the babies) for free when you purchased the Riverside Lodge from the Sylvanian Shop in London.
