Elva Senses - Teddy Sensory Tobias Octopus - Steel

Stroking, clasping and holding on  flexible tentacles decreases stress and soothes your toddler’s nervous system. The sensory response promotes fine motor skills and provides therapeutic feedback. The bubbled texture of their heads stimulates the tactile sense making this plush toy the ideal cuddle partner for babies. For bigger children this tactile toy keeps the hands busy while the brain is able to focus on instructions.

After nine months of anticipation, love and attention to your bump, you’ll want to give your newborn something extra special. So say hello to this little octopus, which is so much more than just a first toy. The tentacles resemble the umbilical cord and the womb experience, so it will help reduce stress and soothe their nervous system. This octopus is the ideal sensory baby toy and a must-have maternity item.

At birth, your baby’s brain contains 100 billion neurons (the same amount of stars in the milky way!). During their first few years, they’ll grow trillions of nerve cell connections, called neural synapses.

Why this Elva toy is a mum and baby favourite: 

• Caressing, squeezing and holding onto the flexible tentacles provides cognitive stimulation
• The sensory feedback promotes fine motor skills and gives therapeutic feedback
• The bubbly texture of its head stimulates the tactile sense and makes it the ideal toy for babies
• Premature friendly - as observed by medical staff and parents, the tentacles closely resemble aspects of the womb
