Using this Cookie Monster toy is easy. Just turn it on and watch as it starts moving the cookie and saying those fun phrases. For different play experiences, switch between the 2 play modes. When the batteries run out, replace the 3 AA batteries (note that this is still to be confirmed). Keep the toy away from water and rough play to avoid damage. To clean it, use a soft, dry cloth. This toy is suitable for kids aged 1 and up, so always make sure an adult is around when younger kids are playing with it.
