Pull Caterpillar
Note: Review only, product no longer for sale.
Soft musical caterpillar needs only a pull on the tail to start the music. Pulling stretches the body out from around 6 to 12 inches. As the music plays, the cord retracts and the body shrinks again. Plays a pleasant lullaby for around 2 minutes. Easy to hang, just tie it's feelers onto any handy spot. Encourages reaching, grasping, tracking, listening, and builds upper body strength.
