Toys are one of the things that will stay with us for a very
long time. We all remember playing with them when we
were kids, don’t we? These toys take us back to our
childhood, make us feel like kids again, and make
excellent collectibles for our children to keep long after
they’ve outgrown them.
Many of us own antique toys that were handed down to us
from family members or bought at antiques shops. Such
toys are cherished family possessions because they take us
back to good old days and remind of us happy childhood
days. Because these toys have been kept for a long time,
they have become dirty over the course of time.
Wooden toys like wooden trains, wooden blocks and even
wooden cars, they can be a lot of fun and they also last a
really long time. But how do you clean and maintain your
favourite wooden toys? It's actually not difficult provided
you use gentle non-abrasive products and do it correctly.
It is important to clean wooden toys after your child has used them,
as they can become dirty and even mouldy. Children put their toys in
their mouth, so you want to make sure they are clean for safety
reasons, but also to ensure that the paint does not wear off. Keeping
your wooden toys clean will keep them looking great for longer and
also keep them in the best condition to give to future generations.
• Here's how you can clean wooden toys:
• Take a bowl or spray bottle full of warm water and add a
small amount of mild dish soap.
• For stubborn stains, use a mix of 1 parts vinegar to 10 parts
warm water solution.
• Spray or dab cloth onto the wooden toy (never soak or fully
immerse toy in water as this will cause swelling and cracks/
damage.
• Wipe toy down gently with cloth or sponge.
• Place toy outside in a safe place and allow to dry (Avoid
direct sunlight)
