Bernard is a koala loves to tag along to any activitiy. The little companion to Fergus Koala, he wears the cosiest cream knitted pants made from Australian Merino wool and is made from beautifully soft wool blend fabric. He has a quiet charm that makes him an instant favourite stuffed animal from the very first cuddle.
Bernard loves to stay up late, watching out for falling stars, cooking marshmallows and falling asleep in the car. He doesn’t like loud noises.
Each Bernard koala comes with his own character tag, a small story in his own words, because every forever friend deserves a proper introduction.
Wool blend fabric is naturally gentle and beautifully tactile and is ideal for newborns and young children. His calm nature and timeless design make him a comforting first teddy to treasure.
He pairs beautifully with Morton Koala — a thoughtful Australian-inspired gift, perfect for overseas visitors or to take overseas as a reminder of home.
I love adventures but I do need to be looked after: Spot clean with a damp cloth for small marks- this is the gentlest option and will extend the life of me.
I do love a bath (especially with bubbles and a good book) but I’m just as happy with a simple wash in a bucket, it helps me stay soft and last for years to come. (don't soak me for too long)
If a full wash is needed: place in a mesh laundry bag and machine wash on a gentle cold cycle.
Lay flat to dry. Do not tumble dry.
Do not bleach.
