  • Cardboard octopus is a creative and fun toy for kids of all ages. It consists of a cardboard box with eight cut-out tentacles that can be attached and detached with velcro. The box also has two googly eyes and a mouth that can be opened and closed. Kids can use their imagination to play with the cardboard octopus, pretending it is a friendly sea creature, a pirate’s pet, or a monster from the deep. The toy is easy to assemble and disassemble, and can be stored flat when not in use. Cardboard octopus is a great way to encourage kids to recycle and reuse materials, as well as to develop their fine motor skills and creativity. It is also affordable and durable, making it a perfect gift for any occasion.
