Belly button care

Please excuse my ignorance. We were told no baths till the cord fell off. Baby girl is officially a wk old and her cord fell off today. We want to give her a bath but what do I do with her belly button? Do I dry it with a towel or just let it air dry? Do I use alcohol to care for it?
