This Playgo caterpillar comes on a blister card of 16.5 × 28 cm and is made up of eight parts: a green head with eyes and antennae, six coloured middle sections in yellow, red, light blue, orange, blue and purple, and a light green tail. Each segment has a different surface - ridges, grooves, wavy lines.
The parts click together and swivel at the joint, so the caterpillar bends a different way every time. Pulling it apart takes a firm tug and putting it back together takes two small hands: exactly the kind of repetition toddlers do not tire of quickly. The card puts it this way: 'Explore different textures and colours as you wiggle me!'
The parts are glossy coloured plastic and no batteries are needed. The packaging states from 18 months.
An easy little gift for a toddler, and small enough to add to a bigger present.
