What type of coloring is used on the toys?
Many of the products do not contain paints, but on our products that do the maker uses non-toxic, water-based watercolor stain. This is slightly different from paint in that it soaks into the wood instead of it being applied on top. They do not use any wood stains on their products. Specifically, we are talking about the Color Balls Cylinder and the Wooden Colors Book. The colored balls are dyed with food-safe dye in-house and sealed with a water-based sealant to prevent color leakage. The book is printed with CPSC-certified UV inks.
How to care for the wooden toys?
NEVER submerge or rinse these toys in water. Doing so will raise the grain of the wood and roughen it. It will also remove the water-based sealant on the colored balls, causing the color to leak. Instead, wipe with a slightly damp cloth to clean.
Note: some toys are all polished with a blend of beeswax and flaxseed oil. Over time with mouthing, this will wear off and may look splotchy as the saliva dries on the toys. It is easily fixed by re-oiling the toys.
