PACKAGING
Blocks are packed in a sturdy white cardboard gift-box and nestled tightly with wood shredding's. Each set comes with paper insert identifying nature themed graphics. You may also choose to add a gift message to your recipient.
These blocks were designed were designed collaboration with @ThePlayfulPeacock, graphics provided by @Clark&Bell. Sold exclusively through Maker Mind Toys and The Playful Peacock.
Our blocks are hand-crafted in Winnipeg, Manitoba, Canada. Our wood blocks are milled locally and then brought to our community workshop where they are laser etched, sanded, routed and packaged.
In 2020 we removed all plastic packaging from our offerings.
We also use upcycled paper shredding from local businesses instead of manufactured crinkle paper.
We are continually trying out new materials and packaging solutions to ensure our blocks get to you with minimal waste and impact on the environment.
Wipe with a damp cloth and let air dry. Never soak or immerse wood blocks in water. Our blocks are unfinished and therefor too much exposure to water will lead to wood expanding/cracking/raising of the woodgrain and losing their smooth sanded surface.
If over time edges become less smooth, blocks can be sanded back down to their original smoothness with 220+ grit sandpaper. This can also be used to remove tough stains like blueberry. (It's happend).
Our blocks are made of unfinished laser-etched (burnt) wood and should not be allowed to be chewed or sucked on. At 1.75" our blocks make the perfect baby room decoration until children are past the mouthing phase.
