Jellycat Pinchsnap Cua

My toddler grabbed this crab by the claw and hasn't let go since it arrived — the fabric is plush enough for snuggling but sturdy for all the squeezing. It's the perfect size for the nursery shelf when he's not carrying it around.

My toddler refuses to put this crab down — the soft plush body is perfect for hugging, and it’s cute enough that I don’t mind it sitting on the nursery shelf when she finally sleeps. The little claws and pinch-snap details make it feel way more special than your average stuffed toy.

The pinchy claws are just the right size for my toddler to grip, and the fabric has held up through a few weeks of being dragged around. Lost one star only because I wish the legs were a bit sturdier for standing up on the shelf, but it's still adorable propped against the crib.
