My daughters have a new favorite toy: the Think & Learn Rocktopus™ from Walmart! They had a blast playing and learning with this early Christmas present. Then we made a fun Octopus Bread Bowl and Dip for dinner inspired by their new musical octopus. 
My little musical foodies had the best night playing and eating!
Scroll down to check out our new favorites!

 

The new Think & Learn Rocktopus™ from Walmart is the perfect gift this holiday season!
Rocktopus has 15 musical instruments to help kids learn rhythmic patterns, sounds, explore fun musical facts, and even lets them compose their own tunes!
It also has 3 play modes: Math, Music, and Game. 
Any toy that makes learning fun is a winner in my book!
Stella says she wants to get the Rocktopus for all her friends this Christmas!
Stella, her sister, and even her Mom and Dad love to learn,sing, and dance with her new Rocktopus!
It even lights up!
 Stella thought this was amazing and hid in her dark closet with her new toy. 
Also included is a CD to download the free Rocktopus App to create your own music video.
Head over to Walmart to purchase your own Rocktopus this holiday season!
Your kids will LOVE it!
Now time to make our fun Octopus Bread Bowl and Dip!
