FAQs
What age is the Ty Reef Shark - Bouncer suitable for?
The Ty Reef Shark - Bouncer is generally recommended for children aged 3 years and up, due to its plush nature and collectable aspect. Always check the product's specific age recommendations on the tag.
How do I clean the Ty Reef Shark - Bouncer?
Spot clean only using a soft, damp cloth. Do not machine wash or dry clean.
Is this toy durable for active play?
The toy is designed for interactive play, including bouncing. However, extreme force or rough handling may reduce its longevity. Standard play should be well-tolerated.
Can it be washed in a washing machine?
No, the Ty Reef Shark - Bouncer should not be machine washed. This can damage the plush fabric and internal structure.
What makes it different from a regular Beanie Boo?
The Bouncers range, including the Reef Shark, features a unique internal design that allows them to bounce when thrown or dropped, adding an interactive play element not found in standard Beanie Boos.
Is it safe for babies?
While soft, it is recommended for children aged 3 and up. It is always best to check specific age guidance provided on the product packaging or tag.
Troubleshooting
Toy does not bounce well.
Ensure the toy is being thrown or dropped on a suitable surface. Harder surfaces will yield a better bounce. Check that the toy's internal structure is not compromised.
Fabric appears matted or dirty.
Gently spot clean the affected area with a slightly damp cloth. Allow to air dry completely. Avoid harsh scrubbing.
Seams appear loose.
If a seam is slightly loose and no filling is escaping, it can often be carefully hand-stitched. If the damage is significant, contact customer support.
