But what is it about the oceans that fascinates and engages children worldwide – even children that live hundreds of kilometres from the coast? “The deep seas and their inhabitants have always been part of myths and stories that we tell each other,” says Barbie. “It’s a world of its own under the surface, something mysterious and exciting that brings the imagination to life.”

Gorgeous toy, ineffective as a night lightHaileyThe octopus toy itself is adorable and I can't fault it. The light however isn't really effective as a night light once it's in the toy, you can see it but it is very dim so as a decorative item it's quite cute but it doesn't have the traditional functionality of a night light.
I do think it could make a good soothing toy for dark rooms but it's not a safe sleep item for very small babies and may not generate enough light for toddlers depending on what they require to sleep and self soothe.
Best thing I've bought my toddlerMarinThis night light is fantastic. I put it on at bedtime or to comfort my child at night. It's good for me to see without being blinded in the middle of the night. The light also dims after a few minutes. I would highly recommend it.
Very cuteIvyMy 2.5 year old son loves it. Took it everywhere with him on the first full day after we got it.
Nice ThomasHaven't bought the octopus yet but it looks pretty cool.

Story
Dive down into a world of wonders
Surfing dolphins, curious turtles and playful octopuses. The big deep sea is an enchanted world that triggers the imagination. It inspired us to create the BLÅVINGAD collection. Working with the project, we also realized that many children are worried about the oceans and their inhabitants.
“Children are engaged and well-informed about the pollution of the world’s oceans and how it affects the animals that live there. They want to do something about it and encourage us, adults, to do the same,” says child psychologist Dr Barbie Clarke. She regularly participates in the work with our Kid’s Advisory Panel, where we interview children in different countries about their opinions on various topics.
Mysteries below the surface
Discover the world
Stories, games and movies about life in the deep sea give children access to a world that is different from their own everyday life. “When children are between 3 and 6 years old, they fantasize the most, and when they get a bit older, they want to learn facts and understand how the oceans work,” says Barbie. She adds that when children are absorbed by something, it’s more than a game; they forget their worries, explore the world and broaden their horizons – just like a giant blue whale that floats off to explore the sea.
Energy and resources
Is it possible to make plastic hug-friendly?
We want to reduce the amount of new material in our soft toys. Using recycled polyester as filling, and thereby giving new life to used plastic, is one way. That’s why we’ve embarked on an exciting journey with our new range of soft toys. Our goal is to fill as many soft toys as possible with recycled polyester – without compromising on safety or quality.
