6 Tips to clean your wooden toys

There are several benefits of buying wooden toys instead of plastic ones:

  • plastic toys cannot match the natural appearance of wooden toy
  •  

  • plastic toys are not as durable as wooden toys which can be used for many years
  •  

  • wood has anti bacterial surface which plastic toys do not have
  • The choice is yours, but I personally prefer to use wooden toys for my kids especially when it comes to outdoor toys. They are more natural and with items such as sand pits it seems that they fit more within the landscape.

    Here are few tips to help you clean wooden toys:

  • wooden toys can be wiped clean with damp cloth or mild cleaners such as soap
  •  

  • natural soap will clean the wooden toy such as sand pit without drying out its surface or leaving chemical excess on the surface
  •  

  • vinegar can be used as well as it will cleanse the surface and make it mildly germ-free
  •  

  • for a wooden toy that is more dirty a mixture of warm water with few drops of liquid natural soap poured into a spray bottle will make wonders
  •  

  • a mixture of water and vinegar 50/50 to spray a toy and quickly wipe the surface is also a very good idea
  •  

  • none of the strong chemicals such as bleach and detergents should be used, as both of these harsh ingredients can change the appearance of the toy while drying the surface
  •  

    Wooden toys such as outdoor sand pit are valued for their natural beauty and when they are properly looked after, it is possible for many generations of children to enjoy the same toy. To find outdoor wooden toys, visit sand pit
