Why We Love Them
I love the texture and size of this play cloth. The MAXI was the perfect size for us. It is thicker than silk and I don’t have to worry about putting this into the laundry machine. You can simply wash the cloth in gentle/delicate cycle, tumble dry it on a low heat and iron it on a low heat.
I like using it as a backdrop to setup small world play.
