Aurora Palm Pals Safety Guide

If you’re looking for small, cute, and sustainable soft toys, you might have come across Aurora Palm Pals stuffed animals. Produced by Korean company Aurora World, which makes 2.5 million plush toys every month, these high-quality yet pocket-sized plushies are crafted from 100% recycled and recyclable materials – and they’re popping up in gift shops all over the UK.

With their universally appealing smiley faces and squishy little bodies, it’s not surprising that these cutie pies are catching everyone’s eye. However, you may be wondering whether they’re safe for little kids or if they’re a trendy collectible for teens and adult soft toy enthusiasts. As trusted Palm Pals stockists, we can explain everything you should know about their safety and care!

Are Palm Pals suitable for babies?

Yes! Palm Pals toys are suitable for all ages, meaning they’re safe for babies, too. These plush toys are made using soft and non-toxic materials, with a plastic bean filling that makes them fun to squeeze.

Their whimsical style can appeal to customers of any age, but Aurora World creates these products with children in mind first – giving each character a personality that’s just as colourful as their design.

Along with their name, number, and individual qualities, each toy’s hangtag will also display safety details. If that specific style is not suitable for a younger age range, the label should say so. Otherwise, all Palm Pals dolls are safe from birth (tested to European safety standards EN71 Parts 1, 2, and 3).

Are Palm Pals machine washable?

The label of each Palm Pals soft toy should also display care instructions, ensuring you can clean your plush safely. Aurora World recommends surface washing their plushies to avoid damaging them.

The manufacturer advises using a soft damp cloth to wipe down the soft toy and applying a mild soap to help remove stubborn dirt or stains if necessary. Never completely submerge it in water, as this can encourage mould growth if the stuffed toy doesn’t dry out properly and remains damp inside.

In some cases, the label may state that machine washing is allowed under certain conditions. This usually means placing the Palm Pals toy in a protective laundry bag and running a gentle cold wash cycle with a mild detergent. After washing, shake it out to restore the shape and allow it to air dry.

It should go without saying, but do not try to iron a Palm Pal or put it in the microwave! Let it fully air dry somewhere with good ventilation, then gently brush out its fur to restore its fluffy texture.
