Wooden toys are durable and when properly cared for can last through generations. These simple steps will help you keep your child's wooden toys clean, antiseptic and in good condition. We propose that you clean all of your child's wooden items commonly and thoroughly to help prevent the spread of germs. Because our wooden toys are made of natural materials, it is important to understand the difference in the middle of unfinished and closed wooden items. Some of our wooden toys are unfinished. These toys have not been dyed or painted in any way; rather they have been left in their natural state. Our closed wooden items are treated with non-toxic dyes and natural paint finishes.

Finished toys can be gently cleaned with a natural, unabrasisve soap and exiguous water. Once cleaned, the moisture should be wiped away with a dry cloth and the items should be allowed to dry thoroughly before use. A rinse of water and vinegar can be used in closed items to take off crayon marks and oil based discoloration. Regardless of whether finish, soaking in water is never recommended as this can cause swelling.

Fighting Spinning Top - Japanese Kenkagoma Koma

Fighting Spinning Top - Japanese Kenkagoma Koma Video Clips. Duration : 1.88 Mins.

When I showed this video to my Japanese father-in-law (mid 70s) his face lit up as he began telling me how as a boy he and his friends would stage exciting fighting top competitions on the street in front of their home (rural farming community without much car traffic). Fighting tops are a special variety of spinning top (tops in general are called koma) made of solid metal or wood with a steel ring around the outer edge. The tops are "thrown" after a long string is wound around the body; and some skill is necessary to give a top a proper spin and to cause it to land within range of an opponent's top. Once engaged, a pair of fighting tops will crash and bang into one another until a victor is declared when either one top stops moving or has been pushed outside the designated game area. This video was filmed outside an old fashioned candy store near my home in Shizuoka Japan. A tip from grandpa Suzuki: My wife's father points out that a kenkagoma's steel ring may sometimes come loose from the wooden body. He notes that when he was a boy and this happened he and his friends would place the top in water for a short while in order to cause the wooden body to swell and thus reseat the ring. directorzone.cyberlink.com
