Snakey

Note: Review only, product no longer for sale.

Is it a plush toy? A puppet? A fastening toy? No, it's all of the above!

Snakey is a plush toy and puppet that consists of 7 detachable segments, with each segment joined by a different type fastener that is color-coded to assist children with match-em-up recognition. Snakey provides children with a creative way to learn how to manipulate buttons, snaps, clips, zippers, plastic buckles, and Velcro while the animated puppet head creates interactive and imaginative play, engaging children with the desire to not only interact with, but learn how to assemble and disassemble Snakey. Size: 5 feet long.
