In fact, there are only three. The neck swivels and so do the ears. That s it.

Donkey fits very easily into small hands.
My 21-month old son can t play with Donkey enough and I have to pry it out of his hands after he falls asleep. For him, operating the jaw is important since he attempts to feed Donkey everything. Even when gunked with food and orange juice, the jaw action still works. Washing Donkey off with some lukewarm water makes him sticky-free, but it remains to be seen how this will affect the mechanism inside Donkey s head that operates the jaw. And be warned, Donkey s feet can mark up walls and floors.
