Using this Squishmallows plush is easy. You can hug it while you're relaxing on the couch, take it to bed for a good night's sleep, or display it on your shelf to show off your collection. As for maintenance, you can gently spot - clean it with a damp cloth if it gets dirty. Just be careful not to soak it. Keep it away from sharp objects to avoid any tears. This plush is suitable for all ages, so everyone can enjoy it, but make sure small children use it under adult supervision to prevent any choking hazards from the hangtag.
