Thinker-Tinker

Experiencing this smart plush robot and its growing library of educational apps is akin to having an adorable animated creature materialize in the physical world to become your child's interactive learning buddy! Bluetooth-connected sensors in Octobo's body, limbs and treasure bowl allow kids to respond to fun digital challenges using a variety of physical actions such as poking, squeezing and hugging Octobo or placing interactive tokens in his bowl. During play, the iOS or Android tablet or phone on which the selected game or storybook app is currently active is nestled inside Octobo's plush body, bridging the digital and tactile worlds in ways kids find highly engaging and rewarding. Included are illustrated Octobo storybooks, each with a unique set of interactive tokens or cards that help turn reading into a series of learning adventures. Youngsters happily explore colors, shapes, letters, spelling, sight words, physical activities and more amid exciting stories and mini games that powerfully promote the development of diverse cognitive and motor skills!
