Now I'm like..eh. Lol. For both kids really.

For things that went in his mouth, I would wash with dish soap. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-washclean-new-toys-before-giving-to-lo#post-2102152 Tue, 10 Mar 2015 10:41:54 +0000 Alivoo01 2102152@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Nope, but DS wasn't really into toys when he was an infant. Not even chew toys so very few ever made it into his mouth. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-washclean-new-toys-before-giving-to-lo#post-2102138 Tue, 10 Mar 2015 10:38:47 +0000 Meridian 2102138@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I haven't so far, but LO doesn't have many toys since he doesn't really play with anything yet. I did wash an Angel Dear lovie before giving it to him though.</p> <p>I also have a bunch of "vintage" stuffed animals from my childhood, and wondering how to wash/clean them before giving them to LO (way in the future). Anyone else? </p>
