Default How do you clean your Boings?

I am at a loss as to how to keep Anna's boing clean, I am afraid if I hose it down it will never dry completely and get moldy inside, if I spray it with vinegar and GSE like I do all her other toys, I still won't be able to get it all off...... I am afraid of all that dried "stuff" on it might make her sick...... but she loves it!

I usually just spray it down an scrub off "stuff" with an apolstery brush. I use a towel to soak out the worst of the water, then hang to dry in the sun for a few hours. I know others who actually run it thru the dishwasher too, just a thought.

I've ran mine through both the dishwasher and washer before and then just hang to dry.
