Your Jellycat Smudge Elephant Soother is a lovely companion for your little one. Just let your baby hold it gently in their hands or cuddle it close. It's great for comforting them when they're feeling fussy. Remember to keep it away from sharp objects to avoid tearing the fur. For cleaning, you can use a soft, damp cloth to wipe it down. Don't put it in the washing machine as it might damage the stitching and the soother. Keep it in a dry place when not in use, and your baby can enjoy this soft friend for a long time.
