On the fence about whether to grab one? Look, I get it!

My kids have more than enough stuffed animals too. Just the thought of adding another one to the mix makes me cringe. 🤣 However, this adorable octopus sets itself apart and now I get why the little guy went viral immediately.

It’s also RARE when I discover a toy that all three of my kiddos love (they’re almost 11, 9, and 5) so to say I was shocked when all three of them fought over this tiny plush toy when it arrived is a serious understatement. 🤯

So what makes this TeeTurtle Reversible Octopus so special?

Aside from the obvious & totally innovative reversible feature already noted, this patented design actually serves a great purpose! Each adorable, plush toy displays two different “moods” which are depicted on the faces sewn on each side.

The reason? It allows kids to share their feelings & emotions without saying a word! 👏🏻

Simply choose the side you’re feeling and leave it out for friends, parents, or siblings to see.

Even as an adult, it can sometimes be hard to talk about our feelings (or we simply don’t want to) so the fact this toy makes it fun & easy to share how you’re feeling with others is genius! No wonder it immediately went viral on the internet.

Yet another toy where I ask myself, “Why didn’t I think of that?!”. 🤯

Our octopus has a happy face and an excited face, but there are also many other combinations to choose from, which is all the more reason to collect them all so your kiddos can express their feelings depending on their mood.

People are also saying these are becoming the new fidget toys!

It’s no secret kids love fidget toys. As a parent, I even find it fun to play with some of their other favorite toys like squishes, pop its, and many others, but these reversible octopus plushies are by far the most adorable yet and they’re really satisfying to flip inside out! 👏🏻

I love when popular toys are practical & meaningful too! 🥰

Here’s what others are saying about their TeeTurtle Reversible Octopus Plushies:

“I originally bought this because it was so cute and I wanted to let my boyfriend know if I was in a good mood or not without having to talk to him. Well, it turned out to be a fantastic emotional tool for my 4-year-old daughter! She saw how I was using it to show what emotion I was feeling and now ‘Jelly’ is her favorite stuffed animal. She uses him to show when she needs her alone time and when she needs a break from talking or when she’s just plain mad. He’s soft, cute, and durable. Love it!” – Sarah, Amazon reviewer

Even big kids appreciate this reversible plushie trend!

“This mood octopus is such a cute little plushie. I liked him so much, I purchased one for my 14-year-old son and my 22-year-old daughter – they both love it! They’re soft, smooth, and well-made. The colors are vibrant and it’s pretty satisfying to flip him inside out and back again.” – Sandy, Amazon reviewer

I have a feeling I’ll be needing to buy two more of these reversible plushies for my older boys. Despite the fact I didn’t think they’d even be interested, I’m realizing they have feelings they need to share too and this is just as much fun for them as it is for my 5-year-old daughter.

There are endless cuddle sessions coming & this TeeTurtle reversible octopus will feel no shortage of love, that is for sure! 🥰

    I had no idea these were a popular thing when I bought one at the grocery store last week for $4! My middle school daughter wanted to buy it for her younger sisterโ€™s birthday and it was cute so I said yes. Sounds like I got a good deal!

    • Mamamia

      $15 is a lot for this toy. $4 is awesome. 8-10$ would be ok, but the one pictured is tiny.

  2. Steph

    Oh how I wish I could come up with one of these money making gimmicks! Lol ๐Ÿ˜‚

    • Sara (Hip Sidekick)

      You and me both, Steph! LOL!

    I see potential benefit.

    But … I also see it as further discouraging verbal and open communication, something that is already a problem for younger generations. And I’m a 30-something year old saying that.
