Using your Squishmallow is super easy! You can cuddle it on the couch while watching TV, use it as a pillow for a good night's sleep, or take it with you on trips. It's great for kids aged 3 and up to play with and find comfort in. When it comes to maintenance, since it's made of machine - washable polyester fibers, you can simply toss it in the washing machine on a gentle cycle. But make sure to use mild detergent. Avoid using harsh chemicals or bleach as it might damage the soft plush. After washing, let it air dry to keep its shape. Also, keep it away from sharp objects to prevent any tears in the fabric.
