Wooden Ice Pop Stand and Pops

Six wooden ice pops and the stand to display them, which turns a corner of the room into an ice cream cart. Your child sells, you buy, and the colours get sorted and re-sorted while the shop is quiet. The pops slot back into the stand, so it packs away as one thing rather than six.

Materials

Beech wood with a painted finish.

Care

Dust with a soft, dry cloth. For marks, wipe with a cloth wrung out in warm water and a little mild dish soap, then dry straight away. Do not soak the wood, and skip bleach and abrasive cleaners. An occasional rub of food-grade mineral oil or beeswax polish keeps the wood from drying out.

Open the shop.
