Toy anti-stress - not only a colorful children's toy, but also a great opportunity to relax for an adult.

Preparation for washing
Toys and pillows with the function of "anti-stress" in most cases are filled with polystyrene beads. Balls are resistant to moisture, so washing this filler is not terrible. If you have an eco-product, and you do not know how to wash an antistress pillow stuffed with buckwheat husk or flaxseed, you will have to rip open the seams and remove the organic filler. Before you erase anti-stress toys in a washing machine, carefully inspect each centimeter of the cover. If the product has at least the slightest holes, a portion of the balls will fall out during washing, and filter clogging can not be avoided. In a severe case, the balls will fall into other systems, and you have to repair the machine.
If you are worried that the cover will tear, use a laundry bag. For the same purposes, a plain pillowcase can be used.
