Does the beak stay I the position as pictured or does it flop open wide and stay that way?

I am not sure I understand your question. The beak sits on face exactly as pictured. The child can open the beak and put them in r hand in it but it stays in position.

Does Bird Bird come with cloth eyes like Grover does?

Hi there, Big Bird comes with plastic eyes.

Tag says hand washable -cold - so i intend on putting it in a pillowcase, cold water and gentle cycle in my machine.

Excellent value

Can't fault this in any way, it's brilliant!! He's just under a foot tall, cuddly, with floppy arms and legs and fluffy hair. Really good quality, well made and looks exactly like who he's supposed to look like.After receiving this one, I bought the Bert one too. Well, you can't have Ernie without Bert, can you?! :-D

A Winner

Bought Ernie for my 6 month old grandson for Christmas. It was a winner as soon as he saw it. The toy itself is well made and durable. Bought him Big Bird for his birthday as you just can't lose with Sesame Street characters.

Ernie is bright, soft & a perfect miniature version of the character in Sesame Street. Our children were delighted when they got them. A must for Sesame Street fans
