We love this toy - it has lasted two kids and still in perfect condition. The pelican's belly doubles as a pacifier holder - our daughter knows where to go looking for them when it's naptime and she puts them away there too when it's time to wake up. I've also noticed that both our kids for some odd reason liked to snuggle underneath the pelican's fuzzy feet while they are sleeping (it just barely touches their foreheads when lying down) - at first we used to move them because it seemed uncomfortable but they just go back - they really seem to like it. It makes some crinkly and some (quiet) squeeking sounds - more subtle than many toys these days. A perfect crib toy.

Well, I loved this thing. However, we have only had it a few weeks and the squeak is already broken or not working in one of the cheeks of the pelican. I emailed K Kids, but haven't heard from them. I'd exchange it via Amazon but it's not worth the postage unless Amazon will exchange free of charge b/c of it being defective. It was not a cheap toy.

Our Hungry Pelican is now on child number three and shows no signs of wear despite being a favorite crib toy for many years.

The bright yellow velour pelican ties onto the crib railing. His fat cheeks squeak, his wings crinkle, and his feet rattle. He comes with four sea creatures (crab, shrimp, fish, and octopus) that are each different textures and colors, and make different sounds (rattle, rustle, etc.). Children can put the little animals into pelican's mouth and watch them drop down into his tummy. The large circular tummy opening allows for easy removal of the animals so play can begin all over again.

I found that babies enjoy quietly investigating the sounds, colors, and textures of the four little sea creatures. Toddlers progress to the eating game.

I am grateful to Mr. Pelican for allowing me an extra half hour of sleep every morning. What can be better than that!
