About this item

Highlights

  • Cuddly plush pelican toy to feed with plush sea creatures again and again
  • Pieces squeak, rattle, and crinkle
  • Pelican's bill opens and closes for feeding time
  • Skills at play include sensory development, fine motor, gross motor; great for self esteem
  • Makes a great gift for babies and toddlers, ages 9 months to 2 years, for hands-on, screen-free play

Description

This cuddly plush pelican has an empty belly . . . and a big appetite for fun! Young children can open the pelican's big bill (which squeaks when squeezed!) to drop four mini plush animals into his open mouth. Then the crinkly shrimp, squeaking octopus, and rattling fish and crab drop right into the bird's big belly! A peek-in, reach-in window on the pelican's front lets kids spot them easily and pull them out to try it all again. The repetitive activity is great for babies and toddlers working on motor skills and other early developmental skills. And thanks to an incredible array of fun-to-explore features--from chubby, squeak-able cheeks to crinkly wings to floppy, rattling feet--it never gets old!

    Even though it is a cute character, it doesn’t sit up like shown in the picture so it was frustrating for my toddler grandson.

    This is a really cute toy but I didn’t get two of the little sea animals! I was hoping to just get the two animals to replace.

    Toy purchased so our one year old twin grandsons could chew the toys and take them in and out of the pelican. When I opened the package and set up the pelican, it just collapsed. There is a stiffened piece of material in it for support, but it was bent and even after straightening it the pelican still was not open for easy access to toys.

    By far MY favorite toy! So, So, Glad I purchased for grandchild. This whimsical Hungry Pelican gobbles up what learning hands feed into the large scoop bill and can inquisitively retrieve from his belly. Smaller soft "food" is the perfect size to add and take away! Grows with child as the child turns from baby to toddler.

    Our youngest granddaughter is 1, but ahead of her age due to competing with her older sisters. She loves this toy and played with it for hours. The hungry pelican now has a 'happy belly' and she loves to cuddle this soft plush toy.

    This is a big disappointment. Especially coming from Melissa and Doug. This pelican is cute in theory but is floppy and doesn’t sit up by itself. Therefore defeating the entire purchase. I will be returning.

    I bought this years ago when I worked as a parent advisor for children with vision and/or hearing concerns. The bright colors and textures attracted their interest. I must have lost the "pelican food" in a move. Are extra food items available? This is a great interaction toy WITH a child to learn cause and affect, social and communication skills!

    I purchased this for Christmas for my grandchild who lives in another state. Since travel is restricted I have not been able to see her play with it. It looked like a fun and safe toy and the price was reasonable. Thanks

    It's very cute but it does NOT sit up like the picture shows It must be hung in order for a child to use it. We ended up hanging it in the car for him to play with only drive somewhere. Very disappointed
