The story shows signs of being tailored to a young listener (presumably the owner of the original toy Mumfie). Mumfie acts mainly like a rather self-assured child of about 6. The story plays understandingly on childish fears such as being carried away on a train while looking for a seat for someone else, or being refused entrance somewhere through lateness or lack of a ticket. Mumfie shows little worry about what his mother might think when she discovers that he has simply walked out of the house with a snack wrapped in his father's best hanky, but there is a reassuring explanation about how toys are allowed to visit their mothers and fathers when their owners are asleep, and how mistreated toys can call on Father Christmas and his staff for help and support.
