From what I've googled, try scrubbing it with nothing but vinegar and letting it air dry.

I've also read that you could try putting it in the dishwasher but I would be very cautious of that because of the heat, and I don't really know how they work.

I hand washed a ceramic tea set with just soap and water and that worked. But some of the pieces had to soak for a while. If you can soak the toy in water and soap try that.
