How do you get penmark off of stuffed animals?

My 4 year old just took a ballpoint pen to her Build a Bear and several of her other stuffed animals. Any ideas on how to get the penmark off? Wow, SOMEBODY is on the high horse today aren't they?

1. try spraying windex on it and running it through the wash.
2. throw them in the washer and dryer on delicate thats what i do it dosent damage the toys but make sure there are no rips or tares in them first.
3. Spray hairspray on the ink before you wash it. I've done this to jeans before and it worked, it also worked when my son drew a lovely picture on my bedroom wall with a pen. Hope this helps.
4. Why did you allow your 4 year old to have a ballpoing pen in the first place? You might try those laundry detergent "stain pens" ...I advise you keep an eye on your child.
5. Washing machine is d fastest way to ruin a plush. A dab of rubbing alcohol should be the fastest fix, d last ressort will be rubbing a small white textile dabbed with nail polish remover, do test it first as nail polish remover is very strong and can even soften/mess certain plastics.
