Oscar the Hedgehog – Shapes & Sounds Learning Toy (55cm)

Meet Oscar the Hedgehog—your oversized, super-soft learning companion packed with tactile, auditory, and interactive play opportunities. Designed to support children from 1 year and up, Oscar combines cuddly comfort with rich developmental value, helping little learners explore sound, texture, motor skills, and imaginative discovery.

Oscar’s colourful removable spines encourage children to practise pulling, placing, matching, and sorting, while the soft brown spines add an extra layer of sensory input through push-and-pull actions. With built-in sounds to activate, children can explore auditory processing and cause-and-effect play in an engaging, age-appropriate way.
