Not only is this cute little octopus great for kids of all ages (or even adults), studies have shown that they are a great source of comfort for babies, as the tentacles mimic the feeling of an ambilocal cord. I have used this pattern to make this octopus for my own two kids, and have found them to be a fantastic gift for my friends and family. Whatever reason you have decided to buy this, I hope that your little creation will bring smiles to the people that you love
