Product Information
Full details
The Janod Walking Donkey is a wooden pull toy designed for toddlers aged 12 months and up, aiding in the development of gross motor skills through imaginative play. While it offers engaging features like a tinkling bell and FSC-certified wood construction, its primary drawback is its limited durability for very rough play, and the string length may be a minor adjustment for some toddlers.

Troubleshooting
Bell is not making noise.
Ensure the bell is not obstructed by dirt or debris. Gently shake the donkey to see if the internal mechanism has become stuck. If the issue persists, contact customer support.
Wheels are stiff or not turning smoothly.
Check the wheels for any tangled threads or debris. If necessary, carefully remove any obstructions. Avoid applying lubricants, as they may attract dirt.
Paint is chipping or peeling.
This can occur with excessive moisture or rough play. Clean the area gently with a damp cloth and allow it to dry fully. For minor chips, consider contacting the manufacturer for touch-up paint if available, or limit further exposure to moisture.
