Celestial Buddies Little Earth Buddy | 10" Soft Stuffed Plush, Fun Planet Facts Tag for Kids – STEM Learning Educational Gift, Classroom & Homeschool Science Space Astronomy | 0+

Our almost 4 yo daughter is fascinated by all things space. I discovered the Celestial Buddy line while Christmas shopping on Amazon. I am SO glad I did! We bought her The Moon, Earth, and Mars. So, I haven't measured any of them, but I can update later. I'm guessing Earth to be about 8 or 9 inches in diameter. It is bigger than Moon and Mars. It is very soft and squishy. Our daughter squeezes the mess out of it and it returns to its original shape with no lumps or other issues. I was VERY hesitant to buy these only because of the price vs how small they are. I haven't seen one for less than $19.99 thus far. After receiving the 3 we ordered, and seeing their quality (and how much our girl loves them) I can tell you each and every Celestial Buddy is well worth its price tag! They are, again, super soft. The seams are tight all well sewn with no loose stitches, no strings, and no spots that appear as though it could lead to a hole. The name, in this case - Earth, is stitched onto the bottom of one foot. The tag tells the story of each buddy - age, composition, distance from the sun, etc. It gives the main facts. So if you clip off the tag, put it in a place to save. The eyes are plastic and seem very secure on the buddy. I am not worried about them coming off at all. I have not had any get dirty yet. So as far as cleaning them, my move would be to spot clean first. With things like this, I always use Dreft, the infant formula not the toddler Dreft. It's very gentle. Their stain remover (and detergent) gets infant stains & smells out of clothing & fabrics....if it can get infant spit up smell & stain (we wont even mention the blowout diaper stains) out of fabrics, I more than trust it to get our more expensive stuffies clean. We have tons of Jellycat stuffed animals. They are pretty pricey, and the Dreft is AMAZING for those. I would use the detergent to wash the buddies if spot treating was not enough. Depending on the load, I may or may not use a large garment bag. I also do all stuffies on my hand wash/wool cycle in my washer, and if pressed for time, dry on my lowest heat setting. I do NOT use fabric softener with stuffies...only a dryer sheet. The Celestial Buddies are awesome. They are wonderful for any child (or adult) who loves space. They would also be wonderful for introducing space...the planets and the few other celestial bodies in this line - such as Polaris and its A & B, and the comet. The Black Hole is actually like a bag and you can fit all of the Celestial Buddies inside it. This would be a great tool for homeschool or any younger classroom for learning about our solar system & space. You won't go wrong with any of The Celestial Buddies. Earth is super cute and all are worth the kinda steep price. Your little will love this line! Just buy them already!!!!

I love this

Super cute super soft I think the price could be better , lower but I will say they are durable and my grandson loves them !

So cute and cuddly , and I finally get to enjoy my world

We love this collection! We started with the moon when she was a baby because she always pointed at the moon and said Luna. Then we added the earth and the puzzle by the same company to her Easter basket.. Now she wants the whole set.

My son carried this around for his Halloween parade. He was an Astronaut and his friends and teachers LOVED it! It is made of great quality, a great size and squishy enough without losing shape or form!

Our baby loves this unique toy. The only problem is that it’s not the most durable for the price. The quality is closer to a $10 stuffed animal.

So excited to give this to my son for his birthday. It is slightly smaller than Jupiter and Saturn. I was impressed with how soft it is.

Lindísimo, fiel a la imagen, es más pequeño que Saturno de su colección. Esta suave, bien cocido.

Gorgeous and well made.

So adorable. Love it.
