Did you know #Paddington’s been brushing up on his Gaelic? Today’s word is ‘cupa tì’ – it means ‘cup of tea’ – something our favourite bear can’t live without! Learning #Gaelic one cuppa at a time. What should Paddington learn next?

Paddington’s Gaelic Word of the Day! Today’s word is “Caraid”- it means “friend” in #Gaelic! #Paddington knows that life is always better with a caraid (especially if they share marmalade sandwiches!).

Our favourite bear from Peru, always in his red hat and blue duffle coat, is helping little ones learn Gaelic - one word at a time! Today’s word is: “Ad” – #Gaelic for “hat”. A perfect fit for #Paddington's signature look! The jacket is safely stored away for now!
