My baby is only four months old and has loved his little octopus since about two months old. He loves the music and kicks his legs and waves his arms when it plays. He has learned to hit it and make the music play recently. He smiles when he sees the octopus' friendly smiling face smiling at him. I suspect he will continue to love it when his fingers are strong enough to push the colors' buttons.

My daughter has enjoyed this toy, especially when she was between the ages of 3-5 months. She likes the smiley face and likes to chew on the tentacles. Too soon to tell if she will use it for learning colors and English & French. I agree with a previous post that the songs do get a bit annoying for the parents - and since the songs on the Baby Einstein toys are the same, and we own a lot of them, we've got a few that are permanently stuck in our heads. :)

I got this as a gift for my daughter when she was born. By the time she was 6 months old, the music was still working but the colors on the tentacles had stopped. It is a great idea but ours seemed to be a dud. Now that my daughter is old enough to want to learn the colors it's useless.

This toy captured my baby's attention even when she wasn't very alert (due to young age). It will even hold her attention now when she's real active, and will cheer her up when she's sad. She's at an age where she holds and grabs on to toys all the time now, and the tentacles are GREAT because she loves to grab and hold onto them. She always likes toys with faces, and pictures of people, and she loves looking at its face too.

My 9 month old just loves this toy-- she smiles at it & gives it a big hug. Hopefully it will continue to hold her attention as she learns her colors in 3 languages.

This is a really cute toy. I thought My daughter would love it. She won't play with it. Although I'm not crazy about the multi-lingul capabilities, it is a good toy.

i never thought of the inflection as racist, just a computerized mispronounciation. and it only seems apparent on the english setting. personally, if people are getting upset over the way a toy says brown, they need to get over themselves, black (or brown) or not

my 7 month old loves "cappy" and we seldom leave home without her.

my son likes this toy but get bored with it. He is 3 1/2 mnths old and is loves that it makes music but is not too intrigued with the fact that when you press the octopuses' tenticles it names colors but hopefully he will learn to enjoy this

This was one of the first toys I bought for my son when he was about 3 months old. He is now 13 months and still plays with it all the time. The music is fun a cheerful and its great way to learn Spanish, and French (since there aren't many French speaking toys out there)
I would recommend this toy and buy it again!
