Using your Cry Babies Tiny Cuddles Mermaid Doll Giselle is easy. First, fill her with water. Then, when you press on her head, she'll cry real tears, which is lots of fun for kids. When taking her out, since she's super light, just pop her in your child's bag and off you go. As for maintenance, keep her away from sharp objects to avoid tearing her soft fabric tail and pajamas. If she gets dirty, you can gently wipe her with a damp cloth. Always empty the water from her body after play to prevent mold. Remember, this doll is for children aged 18+ months, so adult supervision is recommended to ensure safe play.
