The surface also has natural antimicrobial properties when properly cared for.This set encourages independence, coordination, and confidence through meaningful, screen-free activities—perfect for practicing simple food prep like slicing bananas or strawberries alongside caregivers. Ideal for birthdays and Montessori-style play, the set is eco-friendly, long-lasting, and made in the USA.Care: Wipe with warm, soapy water—do not soak; let dry completely. Smooth rough spots with fine sandpaper if needed and maintain with a light coat of food-grade oil.
