Hansel
He loves video games, is always messing around and plays with his little sister, Gretel.
Gretel
Very smart and always has a positive attitude. She loves to play video games, but isn't good at sharing with her brother, Hansel.
Hansel & Gretel's Dad
He's often busy at work, is always on his phone, and gets angry with Hansel & Gretel for arguing with each other.
The Rubbish Monster
Scary and makes a lot of noise! But misunderstood and very friendly at heart.
Birdwatchers, Kate and Tim
They're clumsy but always on the look out for rare birds.
The Lady of the Wood
She loves nature, gardening and wandering through the forest.
The Nature Spirits
Magical spirits who teach Hansel & Gretel to take care of the woodland
