How do you clean and care for wooden toys?
Wooden toys and puzzles can be great for kids, but I’ve noticed that cleaning them is a little different from cleaning plastic toys.
For everyday cleaning, a few simple things can help:
- Wipe the toy with a soft, slightly damp cloth
- Avoid soaking wooden toys in water
- If needed, use a small amount of mild soap
- Wipe away any residue and dry immediately
- Keep wooden toys away from excess moisture and prolonged direct sunlight
- Store them somewhere clean and dry
