Review on Baby Einstein Octopus Orchestra Musical Toy, Ages 6 Months + by Greg Horn

I'm a pediatric Occupational Therapist and I bought this toy specifically for sessions with a 2 year old with Rett Syndrome (developmentally she is approximately between 3 and 6 months). This toy is incredibly motivating. She will turn her head to the side of the music and hit the buttons to make the instruments play and maintain a prone position (tummy time) when the toy is in front of her. It has been a godsend for our sessions. Older children are also enthralled by the colors, lights, and music of this toy; however it is remarkable for sustaining the attention of a child working on eye-hand coordination, visual motor skills, and for motivation. I typically do not use battery operated toys during sessions, but this one is motivating for the child and nice (more than tolerable) for the adult
