Tilly the Octopus Soft Toy by Lily & George | 20cm Plush

Some soft toys have personality written all over them. Tilly the Octopus is one of those toys: curious, clever, and always ready for a new idea. With eight arms and endless imagination, she turns an ordinary afternoon into an underwater adventure, especially when Nori the Turtle is close behind.

Part of the thoughtfully designed Lily & George ocean collection, Tilly is as charming on a nursery shelf as she is in the hands of a small person who has decided she is their most important companion. Her dusty rose tones and softly ribbed tentacles give her a warmth and tactility that makes her genuinely hard to put down, for parents as much as for children.

At 20cm she is compact enough to tuck into a nappy bag or travel backpack, but characterful enough to hold her own in any display. Her 100% recycled polyester filling means she is a more considered choice for families who care about what they bring into their home and their children's lives.

For a gifting idea that goes beyond the expected, pair Tilly with a Write to Me baby journal or memory book for a set that feels personal and lasting.

FAQ: What age is Tilly the Octopus suitable for? Tilly is suitable for children from birth and up. She is soft, lightweight, and free from hard parts or small components, making her a safe and gentle companion for babies and toddlers.

FAQ: How should I care for Tilly? We recommend a gentle cold hand wash and air dry to keep Tilly's plush in the best condition. Avoid tumble drying to preserve the softness of the filling and fabric.

Tilly's dusty rose colouring makes her a natural fit for a soft, feminine nursery palette think blush linen, natural rattan, white oak shelving, and botanical prints. Display her alongside Nori the Turtle and a small stack of board books for a nursery corner that feels curated and calm.

For gifting, tuck Tilly into a simple muslin wrap or a natural cotton gift bag alongside a Lily & George companion toy for a presentation that needs very little extra styling to look considered and lovely.

In a shared or gender-neutral nursery, her muted tones work just as beautifully alongside sage greens, warm creams, and natural timber as they do in a more traditionally pink-leaning space. GIFTING IDEAS

She is also a lovely pick for a gift from an older sibling to a new baby the ocean story that connects Tilly and Nori gives children something to play with narratively from very early on.
