What our experts think
The Mr Tumble soft toy is colourful and sensory, encouraging children to engage with different lights and songs as well as acting as a comforter. Our testers liked that the toy is lightweight, so little ones can grip it and carry it around easily.
The children really enjoyed pressing Mr Tumble’s nose to hear him talk, after being shown once they were able to repeat the action for all the phrases and songs. Listening to and repeating different words and phrases is great for helping children to build their vocabulary. The little ones also enjoyed making their toy imitate the real Mr Tumble on the television as he went along, which is fantastic for developing their communication and storytelling skills.
