Hi, so the other day I got some sycamore logs of someone who just had there tree cut down to make some toys out of. I washed, scrubbed and cooked them in the oven to sanitise them before hand.
So here is what I made...What do you think?

Thanks Try looking on freecycle sometimes people give away logs from cut down trees on there, which you might be able to get if its a safe wood

That is so great! First, they're going to love stripping off the bark and shredding it. Then they're going to start whittling down the wood pieces. Great toy that will last a very long time.
