The dancing octopus toy pleasantly surprised our family. I originally bought it for our baby, but our 5-year-old son ended up being the first one fascinated by it — the toy instantly grabs attention and keeps kids engaged for a long time. I really like that you can use the octopus with or without sound — very convenient when you need to keep things quieter, especially in the evening. The mechanism works smoothly, and the toy moves well even on carpet, which is a big plus for us. The obstacle sensor also works nicely: the octopus changes direction in time and doesn’t get stuck against walls or furniture. I also appreciate that the toy is not too big and has no tiny parts, which makes it safer and more suitable for babies and toddlers. Overall, it’s a great option for active play and for encouraging interest in moving objects. I recommend it! Read more

This dancing octopus toy is such a fun find! It crawls, wiggles, and plays music, instantly grabbing my baby’s attention. The movements are smooth, the colors are bright, and it feels sturdy. Great for tummy time and encouraging crawling. Definitely a cute and engaging toy! Read more

This toy is an absolute hit! The dancing squid is colorful, engaging, and keeps entertained for hours. I love that it’s rechargeable—no more wasting money on batteries, which is a huge plus. The quality feels solid, and the design is adorable. It’s lightweight but durable enough to handle rough play. For the price, this is a fantastic deal. You’re getting a toy that’s fun, educational, and built to last. Highly recommend for birthdays, Christmas, or just because! The music is cheerful, the movements are hilarious, and it’s surprisingly addictive to watch it crawl and dance around. Honestly, it’s the perfect stress reliever after a long day. Read more

My 7 month old loves this toy. It can keep her entertained for a while! The music dies get a little annoying after a while so thankfully there is an option with no music! Read more

My baby loves this toy. The battery lasts a long time on one charge and I like that you can use it without the sound because it is a little loud. Read more

It died within 3 days and doesn’t charge anymore Read more

Stopped working after 3-4 uses unfortunately, my son loved it when it worked but it didn’t stay charged very long and would choose when to work or not… now it will only turn on for about a minute every once in awhile Read more

This entertained my newborn more than any other toy for tummy time! We tried to dancing crab, but that was little aggressive moving. This dancing squid moves but it relatively stays in the same spot. It gives the option to move with and without music, and it was not very loud or obnoxious. This toy helped prolong my baby’s tummy time dramatically! With its long battery life, my baby was able to be entertained for long periods of time. You can use it for all age ranges, but I found it most effective 1-4 months of age! I am excited to use it again in the future with more babies Read more

Super cute and dances like shown. However the sound quality was very poor. Static buzzing/muffled and extremely too loud with no option to adjust. Sending it back. Read more

My baby loves this. You can use it 2 ways, standing up on the squid tentacles or lying down on its wheels. I love the catchy song that goes with it but it also has an option for the squid to dance silently which is good when my other son is napping. Every time I turned it on, my baby is spellbound. The battery last a long time and it is usb charged !! Read more

It has the option to have no sound but thats nowhere near as entertaining as with the sound, however, the volume on this is extreme! It's quite loud! Read more

My baby loves this toy for tummy time! He smiles every time I bring it out and entertains him. The battery last a long time which is nice. The music on it is pretty loud, but it does entertain him when I put it on I just make sure it isn’t right next to his face. Read more

Super cute, so far in my experience adults like it way more than kids but that doesn't bother me. It's really fun to watch. The movement is pretty good for the most part but just because it has a sensor does not mean that it won't go where it's not supposed to. I love that it's rechargeable and I don't have to worry about batteries Read more

Its too loud. Read more

Not ideal for littles… the arms and legs are on a very strong motor so it pinches little fingers hard. Broke the skin on my toddlers hand twice in 10 minutes. The sensor is only on one side so if it going the the direction with feet first it just keeps going and running into things or will curve around it and you have to chase it. Also the song that it plays is a horrible recording of a VERY flat flute so it’s like nails on a chalk board. It only stands up and moves on its own for about 5 seconds then falls. It keeps my babies attention for awhile but requires a lot of assistance from me so I’m crawling around all over the floor. Read more

Okay listen. I bought this for my cat because I thought it’d be a cute little enrichment toy. BIG mistake—dude was peacefully asleep on the couch, and I, being the chaotic creature I am, woke him up to introduce him to this octopus thing. The second it started blasting its LOUDASS music (on default setting one), he LEAPT off the couch like it was a house fire. I didn’t even know it had a silent mode until after—setting two is just the movement, no rave music. To be fair, once I turned the music off, it actually slaps. The sensors are legit — it doesn’t just plow into things like most of these budget toys. It detects walls and obstacles both front and back, and redirects like it’s running pathfinding. Wild. It even keeps moving when flipped flat on its back, which was unexpected but kind of genius. Right now my cat is side-eyeing it from across the room like it owes him money, but I think he just needs time to warm up to it. Meanwhile, I’m obsessed. This thing moves like it’s possessed. I WILL be posting a video of my cat’s traumatized reaction because it’s too funny not to share. Honestly, 5 stars for the entertainment alone. Read more

My 2 month old and my 3 year old love this!! So do the cat and dog.. it’s rechargeable which is amazing because batteries are super expensive. It’s super easy to turn on my 3 year old turns it on so he can dance to the music. Read more

Very cute. My grand baby loved it. A little loud but there is a volume off button Read more
