Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup: The Kent & Stowe Kids Spade & Fork Set requires no assembly. It is ready for immediate use upon unboxing.
Compatibility: These tools are designed for use by children aged 4 years and above. They are suitable for use in most garden environments, including soil, sandboxes, and designated children's gardening areas. Always ensure the child is supervised by an adult.
Care: To maintain the quality of the tools:
- Cleaning: After each use, wipe the stainless-steel heads clean with a damp cloth to remove soil and debris. Avoid abrasive cleaners.
- Drying: Ensure both the metal heads and wooden handles are dried thoroughly with a soft cloth to prevent rust and wood damage.
- Storage: Store the tools in a dry place, away from direct moisture or extreme temperatures. Hanging them up is an ideal storage method.
- Wood Treatment: Periodically, you can apply a natural oil (like linseed oil) to the wooden handles to preserve the wood and prevent cracking, especially if stored for long periods.
