Olaf Loves Warm Hugs. Here Is How to Keep Him Hug-Ready.

Olaf has bounced into stock at Beanie Boos Australia, and he is exactly as cheerful as you would hope.

The Ty Beanie Bouncer Olaf from Frozen has the carrot nose, the stick hair and the warm smile, all ready to bounce. Like every Beanie Bouncer, he combines the softness of plush with the bounciness of a ball. Toss, catch, bounce, roll, kick, bowl, collect. He is around 9 cm, comes with the official Ty heart, suits ages 3 and up, and is $9.99.

A snowman who loves summer is a toy with a sense of humour. He is also a toy who will get dragged through a lot of summer, so let us talk care.

Bouncers are surface clean only. Please do not machine wash. The safest method is a soft cloth, slightly damp, with a small amount of mild soap. Gently work the cloth over any marks, wipe with a clean damp cloth to lift the soap, then let Olaf air dry completely. On a warm day this takes no time at all. He would approve.

White plush shows everything, and Olaf is mostly white. Our tip: do a quick once-over after each big play session rather than waiting for him to look properly grubby. Fresh marks lift easily. Old marks put up a fight.

Keep him away from sunscreen-covered hands where you can, and dry him off promptly if he ends up near the sprinkler or the paddling pool. Damp plush that stays damp develops a smell that no amount of cleaning fixes. Olaf may dream of summer, but the water part is best left in the film.

Looked after this way, a Bouncer stays soft, bright and bouncy for years. That is a lot of joy from a $9.99 toy.
