Imagine a teddy that mirrors the sensation of a gentle, reassuring hand
Oscar the Octopus has been carefully shaped and weighted to replicate this comforting touch. This calming embrace reduces anxiety, eases restlessness, and promotes a deep sense of tranquility. The therapeutic benefits of weighted plush toys, like Oscar, extend to children with sensory processing challenges, including those with autism and ADHD, offering unparalleled comfort.
The umbilical cord is baby's first comfort object
From the moment babies are born, they seek out familiar sensations. Ultrasound images have shown babies holding and interacting with the umbilical cord, but when baby is born, this familiar object is lost. Recognising this, Oscars front tentacles have been designed to replicate the feel of the umbilical cord, and offered continuity, familiarity and reassurance to newborns, helping the transition from the womb to the world.

Bright captivating colours
Oscar is not a neutral comforter, he is is a deep reddy orange—some of the first colours babies begin to recognise. The shiny, smooth material on Oscar’s underside contrasts beautifully with his bold hues, creating a visually stimulating experience that aids in early visual development.
Crafted for little hands to hold, grab and snuggle
Babies instinctively grasp objects in their hands, and Oscar’s tentacles are made for little hands to explore. This interaction not only provides immediate comfort but also encourages the development of fine motor skills. Crafted from ultra-soft materials, Oscar offers a multi-sensory experience, ensuring a comforting embrace your baby will love.
