Shiny, soft and playful
This small, 10cm octopus fits comfortably in the hand and feels pleasantly firm thanks to its 40-60 gram weight. The shiny, soft material invites petting and squeezing, while the sand filling provides subtle proprioceptive stimulation. This allows children to playfully feel how much force they're using and consciously engage their hand muscles.
Thanks to its flexible tentacles and soft body, the octopus can be kneaded, curled, or gently rolled. This stimulates the sense of touch, hand muscles, fine motor skills, and concentration.

Playing options:
- Throw and aim game: Let the octopus gently fly towards a basket or target. This way, children practice hand-eye coordination, precision, and strength in a playful way.
Tentacle Balance Course: Place the octopus on your arm so that the tentacles dangle down on either side and walk a short balance course. This promotes balance, coordination, and body awareness.
- Talking animal in the circle: Use the octopus during a group discussion and pass it around as a "talking animal." This encourages social interaction, communication, and fine motor skills.
Relaxation and calm: Have children hold or gently knead the octopus during a quiet moment in the classroom or at home. This helps regulate tension, relax muscles, and create a sense of safety and calm.

In short: this shiny mini octopus is a playful, sensory-rich friend that invites children to feel, explore and relax.

Please note: This is not a toy but a decorative item. Be aware that fine sand particles may escape through the seams.
