Squeeze Octopus Water Toy

A soft octopus figure with weighted, trailing arms that stretch when pulled and drop back into place when released. Squeezing the body flattens it and the shape returns slowly, and the arms swing loosely as it moves. It is built to be handled hard rather than displayed, which is what makes it work with children. The weight in the arms is what gives it the loose flop when it is picked up and dropped.

The body is moulded in a stretchy, rubber-like material with a smooth finish, printed and shaped to resemble a real octopus down to the suckers on the underside of each arm. It rinses clean under a tap and shakes dry quickly, so sand and salt water do not stay on it. Check the arms occasionally for splits, since stretched material eventually gives at the joint.

This squeeze octopus toy comes into its own outdoors as a beach water play toy for kids, at a paddling pool, in a garden or in the bath. Indoors, the simulation octopus squishy toy sits on a desk or windowsill and gets squeezed while someone is on the phone. It suits parents wanting one toy that works for both hands-on play and quiet fidgeting. Storing it takes nothing more than a shelf, a hook or a toy box.
