With its sharp teeth and menacing eyes, children are invited to life live on the edge and sit right inside the shark's mouth.
Better still, these soft home furnishings can be thrown in the washing machine when they inevitably get covered in after-school snacks.
Giving the blankets a rave five star review, one customer commented: "All of the kids I bought them for were over the moon with them.
"I bought one mermaid tail and two sharks - very good value for money, would recommend them."
