Customer Rating:
Summary: Well-made, charming puppet
Comment: My toddler adores this octopus and has been requesting us to tickle-attack her with it for months. It looks really neat since each of your five fingers moves one of the octopus's legs. Well-made. Says surface wash but I have laundered it in the washing machine in cold water and air-dried; no problem. I also like that the Folkmanis puppets come with a tag giving basic facts about the animal.

Summary: Remember the Octopus
Comment: I am an experienced reading specialist. "Octopus" is one of the key words often used to help children remember the short-o sound. First-graders and other beginning readers can make especially good use of this friendly octopus. Active fun and learning make a great combination!

Customer Rating:
Summary: A friendly little friend
Comment: This little friend is perfect for all ages. He's an expressive hand puppet with a lot of character, and he makes a good stuffed animal, too. Six of his eight tentacles accept fingers (making him comfortable for both right- and left-handers) and he's one-size-fits-all: little hands and adult hands alike can work his magic. Use him palm-side up, and he plays a keen game of octopus peek-a-boo.

Never have we encountered a toy of such durability. Our octopus has traveled the world, been in most of the states of the Union, and accompanied us on climbs of some of the highest mountains on the East coast. Not to mention his many trips through the washing machine (in a mesh delicates bag; line dry). After five years and all those miles, he's not as good as new, but he's got a lot of life and love left in him. No doubt can can take a rough handling from any age.
