Little ones can wave the eight rainbow arms to help the octopus swim and feel the soft, bumpy, or fuzzy fabrics on each one. Soft buttons on three arms encourage interaction with friendly phrases, catchy music, and soothing water sounds. A glowing starfish that twinkles to the beat of the music adds extra fun to playtime. Enjoy eight times the hugs with this snuggly friend. Designed for children over 3 months. Requires 2 AAA batteries. Batteries are included for demonstration purposes only. Fresh batteries are recommended for regular use.
