But what is it about the oceans that fascinates and engages children worldwide – even children that live hundreds of miles 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.”

I LOVE THIS OCTOPUS 🐙🐙🐙Aylathis octopus is one of the best things to every happen to me. no matter the age, everyone is guaranteed to love it. it brings joy to any place ever and weirdly works very well as a hat. super cute how the tentacles were made to curve in, and its expression is one of perfect neutrality, letting you imagine whether it feels fun or comforting. this octopus is so joyous that i can't help but bring it everywhere and take pictures of it on adventures and show it off to everyone. i love this octopus 🐙🐙🐙 have an oceany day

ExcellentStephanieOur son picked this out to add to IKEA stuffie collection. He also has the turtle and ocean theme Tent duvet cover etc IKEA used to offer. great size for price, detail is nice, it’s not creepy looking very fun for a child’s room.
My cat loves this octopusRebeccaI bought this little guy for myself, because I love octopuses and when I saw him I knew he needed to be part of my octopus collection.
I bought him and brought him home and put him on my bed and then it was all over. This is no longer my octopus, he belongs to my cat.
Every night, my cat gets in bed and lays down with his octopus, which is between my pillow and my husband's. He wraps himself in the tentacles and props his head against the octopus's head. He cuddles with him like they are best friends.
An important part of his bedtime ritual is fluffing the tentacles back out so he can properly cover himself in them like a blanket. If I don't, he won't lay down and he whines.
I saw a picture of another cat curled up with one recently, so apparently they are just the optimal cat bed somehow. It's actually pretty cute.
My kid love thisGrazieneKeep they very entertained walking around the house with the octopus on top of their head.
The bright color keeps the room alive.

Great quality!MichelleThe IKEA toys tend to be great quality for the price and this one in particular is often used in my gift baskets for raffles benefiting dogs. The dogs absolutely love all of these legs that flap around and hit them when they shake the toy!

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.
Function solution
Soft toys to hug, again and again
We know our soft toys should handle many years of love. That’s why we’ve chosen comfy materials, embroidered eyes, performed rigorous washing tests – and ensured that we test them for harmful chemicals. Simple to keep clean and fresh since they can be machined washed.
Quality
Sure, they’re cute but are they safe? Absolutely!
You can rest assured knowing that all our children’s products live up to the highest health and safety standards. We put our toys to the test – up against the toughest in the world (much tougher than any two-year-old). All so you can worry less and they can play more.
