How to Clean Baby & Kids Toys?

“How do I clean my children’s toys?” Probably one of the most frequently asked questions. Repeatedly, my friends (who wont to inquire from me if their rocks look good in their tight clubbush clothes) are now asking me the way to clean the toys. Oh my friends, how times have changed. Friends aside, a member of the community is a parent and they ask me this question. Therefore, for all of you who will continue to refer to this publication forever, it is done here, safely and quickly and efficiently. Remember that the frequency depends on the mother and father. There are recommendations, however, that some parents are less strict than others. This is exactly your call, as per your parents’ style.

How to Clean Plush Toys?

Most plush toys come with a care label, and should be reviewed to determine the proper cleaning procedure. Many people will just ask you to wash your hands, and that’s fine. However, if you are dead in washing them, you certainly can. If it doesn’t need to be washed but it’s just dust, you can quickly empty the toy skin. This is a big trick. You simply attach the old pantyhose to the vacuum brush and vacuum the dust outside the toy. If the toy needs a deep cleaning, there are a few pairs you can hit along the way. Kirklin’s toys may no longer be worn out, and the wrong fur or stuffed animal may slip into the ‘hair’ or the mat may never return to normal.

What plush toys shouldn’t enter the washing machine?

Whether you’re welcome to take a risk or not, it’s your child’s anger that you need to consider. Pay attention to these fair warnings and you should be fine. Do not machine wash if:

1-The toy has a music box
2-The toy is old and / or fragile
3-The toy sticks to things like sequins, ribbons, etc. However, sticky eyes may handle the washer.
4-Toys contain delicate items that cannot be removed (small outfits or accessories)
5-The toy is filled with anything other than polyester batting, such as small foam balls or beans.
The Washing Machine

Keep in mind that a load-bearing washing machine can displace animal bats due to angry people. But with high-performance washers, you’re in good shape. Regular soap is fine, and I will use something safe for the baby, free of color and fragrance. Consider adding oxygen bleach powder to the wash if they are stained or smelly. Next, take an old pillow and throw the plush toys into the pillow. Close it with a white pipe cleaner, twist or fine wire piece (or use a pillow cover with a zipper instead) and put it in the wash. I recommend using a delicate or soft wash cycle with cold or hot (not hot) water. If the water gets too hot, it can melt the adhesive (leading to a very sad baby). When the wash cycle is over, remove the toy and brush the skin with a fine tooth comb to blow it again.

You also have a couple of dries. You can lean on the drone on the Fluva bicycle. Treat toys like clothes and wash them together like colors. Only then can you consider washing toys with towels instead of clothes. Your plush toys should be in tip-top shape!

Hand Washing

For toys that only claim to wash their hands or fall under one of the 5 points mentioned above, just wash your hands with mild soap (try to use perfume-free if possible). Do this by dipping a clean cloth in a mixture of dish soap and water or baby shampoo and water. While working in a circular motion, gently massage the mixture over the toy. After that, rinse the cloth thoroughly and start removing the soap residue from the cloth. Let it dry by hanging it indoors or in the sun.

What is the best way to clean plastic, rubber, or silicone toys without batteries?

Soft plastic and Rubber toys:

You should wash them in a sink as opposed to a dishwasher as these materials are more at risk of melting or spoiling in hot water. To clean them, simply put a skirt of soap in a sink, bucket or basin and add hot water. Next, clean the toy with a soft cloth or an old toothbrush. Rinse thoroughly in cold water. Now, to disinfect the toys, spray the toys with a 50/50 mixture of alcohol, alcohol and water and let them stand for one minute. Lay flat again to rinse and dry. Clean and tidy! I do not believe in the use of chlorine bleach so it is a very safe alternative. If you don’t care so much about toys, feel free to put them in a delicate bag, place the bag on top of the dishwasher, and walk (and don’t) go through the water-cleaning cycle in your dishwasher. Keep dirty dishes). This is your call, but if the toys melt, don’t say I didn’t warn you.

Hard Plastic Toys:
As toys, Lego, Duplo, etc. can be thrown in the dish bag and placed in the dishwasher as mentioned above.

Silicone Toys:
They can go in the dishwasher (like above, like above) or boil in a pot for cleaning and sanitizing.

How to Clean Plastic, Rubber or Silicone Toys with Batteries:

Whether it’s battery-powered or plug-ins, electric toys can’t just be submerged. Take out the batteries and / or open the toy. Then, dip the cloth in soapy water and wash the outside of the toy. Make sure that the battery box or wiring is not exposed to any moisture. Also, make sure that there is no moisture in the space between the moving parts. To clean the toy, mix 50/50 in a bowl with alcohol and water and bake your clothes in the mixture and turn well. Wipe it on the ‘safe’ parts of the toy. Alcohol dries quickly, but if needed, you can wipe it off to remove excess moisture.

Dolls with hair (Barbie, Ken, My Little Pony, etc.) How to clean them.

When I was growing up, I had many ‘hair toys’. And to this day, I love my hair so I may have to thank my Barbies and Ponies. However, I didn’t know these cleaning tips at the time and they could really help.

Hair:
Doll hair (like thin plastic straps), here’s what you can do. If the hair is in the scalp, shampoo the doll’s hair using dish soap or two drops of baby soap. However, don’t worry if the hair is flattened, it is likely to fall out. After that, rinse thoroughly with cold water and keep it dry, flat to dry out to avoid getting tangled. Soak the strains overnight and then rinse. Gently comb to remove knots and lay flat to dry. This may sound silly, but never dry your hair.

Body:
You can clean these hard plastic bodies with one or two simple tricks. Make a small paste with oil, oil and baking soda to remove scars and blemishes. With a cotton swab, apply to the spots in a circular motion, then rinse the area with a damp cloth. Make sure you don’t remove any paint (facial features, nail polish) when you do this. For severe stains, use a nail polish remover on a cotton swab, then rinse the area thoroughly.

To sterilize these toys, make a 50/50 mix of alcohol and water massage in a clean spray bottle and search the toy from head to toe. After a minute, wipe with a dry cloth and voila, clean and disinfect.

How to clean wooden toys?

According to my research, wood has antibacterial properties. However, as a parent, I find it difficult to get the price right. So instead, soak a cloth in white vinegar and clean the toys occasionally. Vinegar will cleanse and act as a mild disinfectant, so I consider it a great cleaning tool for wooden toys. They don’t need to be cleaned often, but if they need a good cleaning, that’s all you need to do. The smell of vinegar will disappear in a few minutes.

Why is it important to clean the Toy?

There are many reasons for this, but I think the biggest goal is to keep children as healthy as possible. Babies are always sick and since they are always playing with toys (and each other), it is important to clean the toys to keep germs in the bay, especially during the colder months.

Some Quick Tips:

If you are out and can’t clean the toy properly, clean the child’s dirty toy.

For parents who want to be chemical-free, use a steam cleaner for easy and efficient cleaning and cleaning of toys, play pens, baby carriers and upholstered chairs.

Clean baby and toy toys once or twice a week, as they often go into the baby’s mouth and are shared with other children. Children’s toys can be cleaned monthly and plush toys can be cleaned once or twice a year.
