FAQs

How do I wash the Washimals animals?

Place the colored animal in the Scrub Tub, add a little water, and use the scrub brush to gently clean off the colors. Rinse thoroughly under running water and let them air dry completely.

Are the markers safe for children?

Yes, the Crayola Washimals markers are designed to be safe and non-toxic for children aged 3 and up.

Can I use other types of markers on the animals?

The included markers are specifically formulated for the Washimals. Using other markers may result in colors that do not wash off easily or could damage the velvety surface.

How many animals are included in this set?

This Deluxe Play Set includes 12 velvety Washimals animals.

What is the recommended age for this toy?

The toy is recommended for children aged 3 years and older.

Can I buy more Washimals animals or markers separately?

Yes, additional expansion packs with more Washimals animals and markers are sold separately to grow your collection.

What should I do if a marker stains my table?

While the markers are washable, it's best to play on a protected surface. If a stain occurs, try cleaning it immediately with mild soap and water, or a suitable household cleaner for the surface material.

Troubleshooting

Markers not coloring the animals

Ensure the marker cap is securely off and the tip is not dried out. If dry, try wetting the tip slightly with water. Make sure you are coloring on the velvety texture, not the base.

Colors not washing off completely

Use a bit more water and the scrub brush in the Scrub Tub. Gently scrub the area where the color remains. Ensure the animals are thoroughly rinsed and air-dried completely. Persistent light stains may occur over time with heavy use.

Animals are not drying properly

Ensure the animals are squeezed well after washing to remove excess water. Allow them to air dry in a well-ventilated area. Avoid direct heat, which can damage the material.

Marker caps lost

Keep all marker caps together in a small container or bag when not in use. If a marker dries out due to a lost cap, try the troubleshooting tip for markers not coloring.

Setup, Compatibility & Care Instructions

Setup:

This toy requires no assembly. Simply open the window box packaging to access the 12 Washimals animals, 12 washable markers, and the Scrub Tub. Ensure a flat, stable surface for play. It is recommended to cover play surfaces with a mat or old newspaper to protect them from stray marker marks, even though the markers are washable.

Compatibility:

The included markers are designed specifically for use with the Crayola Washimals figures. While other washable markers *might* work, it is best to use the provided markers to ensure optimal coloring and washing results. The Scrub Tub is designed to accommodate the included animal figures.

Care:

  • Cleaning the Animals: After coloring, place the Washimals animals in the Scrub Tub. Add a small amount of water and use the scrub brush to gently remove the marker colors. Rinse the animals thoroughly under running water and allow them to air dry completely before storing or coloring them again.
  • Cleaning the Markers: Keep the caps on the markers when not in use to prevent them from drying out. If marker tips become dry, try dipping them in a small amount of water. Ensure marker tips are clean before placing them back into the case.
  • Storage: Store the animals, markers, and scrub tub in a dry place, away from direct sunlight. Ensure the animals are fully dry before storing to prevent mildew.
