Developmental benefits by age:
0-12 MONTHS
Infants primarily learn about their world through sensory experiences. Octobo’s cuddly body and squishy arms welcome our little ones to explore and grab, helping them improve their fine- and gross-motor control.
1-2 YEARS
Children can learn about emotions by observing Octobo’s reactions to different interactions with him, such as poking Octobo’s eye or wiggling his arms. Octobos Underwater Adventure storybook and app supports early cognitive learning through developmentally appropriate tasks and puzzles.
3-5 YEARS
Our ABCs storybook, Octobo and the Great Letter Search, and its accompanying app is designed by educational experts and experienced game designers. Kids can learn everything from letters to spelling in a fun and engaging way, all while further improving their emotional recognition and prosocial behaviors.
5-7 YEARS
After kids master letter recognition and basic vocabulary, its time for some spelling challenges! In our spelling game mode, kids can play collaborative spelling games with others and see how many words they can spell out.
