Is it not the cutest thing in the world to watch and adore your toddler play with his cute soft toys? It is the closest thing to their hearts, and they drag them with themselves wherever they go. Therefore, it does not come as a surprise when these toys, if not cleaned for a very long time; become a powerhouse for various kinds of bacteria and other germs. But that does not mean that you should forbid your little ones from playing with their favorite cuddly toys. All you need to is keep them clean and hygienic at all. Wondering how? Just read on.
Check the label- Before you start working on cleaning it, you should read the care instructions given on the label with the utmost care to avoid damaging it. It is advisable to always check it before purchasing a toy to ensure that it is washable. Before washing it, you should also check for delicate parts that might get ripped off during the wash, like a stuffed animal’s eyes. Make sure to take proper care of protecting those parts before starting the cleaning process.
Pre-treat the stains if any- From mud splatters to curry smears, there can be several different types of stains on your little one’s beloved toy. Machine washing them may not help in removing those marks. Hence, it is essential to pre-treat them. It is very important to use the right detergent during the entire process. Champion Blue is what we swear by for this purpose. Its advanced StainGo ColourPro technology has a double-action cleaning formula that helps remove stains very efficiently. Just put a little bit of the powder on the stain and brush it till it disappears, let it sit for 3 minutes and then machine wash or hand wash it with the same detergent.
Washing the toys- As already mentioned above, the first thing you need to do is, ensure that your toy is washable. Different toys have different washing methods. Some come with a chain, which you can unzip and remove all the cotton and then machine wash just the outer portion, some can be entirely washed in the washing machine, and some need to be hand washed. Avoid washing delicate ones in the machine and just hand-wash them in the sink. You can also put the toy inside a pillowcase and wash them with the rest of your garments. You should also avoid putting very large toys in the washing machine as they might damage the machine. Make sure you use a detergent that will keep them fresh and also protect their color. Again, Champion Blue Detergent is your solution in this case.
Drying the toys- Avoid drying the toys in the dryer as this will ruin the shape of the toys, and in some cases even shrink them. It is advisable that you gently squeeze out as much water as you can from the toy with your hands, and then use a sponge to remove the excess water and brush them, and then air dry them under a fan, as air drying them under the sun might fade them.
Follow this simple method of keeping your darling’s toys clean, and keep clicking and saving those adorable memories that you will cherish for a lifetime.
