Chalkboard
Large chalkboard is 2.4 x 1.2 metres and includes-
3 baskets and 2 hooks for fence
Small Chalkboard is 1.2 x 1.2 metres and includes-
2 baskets and 2 hooks for fence
The main chalkboard pictured is the large 2.4 metres chalkboard. Small would be half that size.
These are weather resistant but not weatherproof and require care similar to our kitchens to extend their lifetime.
Chalkboards this size have a shorter life span than a chalkboard being indoors due to direct sun and rain pooling on the fence. By using the provided hooks you will be able to move it and cover it if needed.

Free shipping - To business
This option is great for commercial orders. Please note this option is not suited to businesses that aren't warehouses or factories etc.
When they are shipped, they come almost fully assembled. The only things you need to do is pop the backings on along with shelves, hooks, chalk boards or the tap. For other items, anything that is taller than our benches will also require assembly. These will be pre drilled, marked and come with some easy instructions to help. If for some reason the instructions are a little too confusing then please contact us and we will send a video through on what you may be having difficulty with.
We will notify you when your order is ready and your item should arrive within 3 business days after completion but we take no responsibility for any delays with shipping as we have no control over their time frames.

With this option everything comes fully assembled. Please ensure you have the correct sized trailer to collect your order along with a copy of your receipt. Our Large kitchens, work benches and deluxe kitchen will not fit in any car so will require a trailer. If you plan on trying to fit any other kitchen in your car then we recommend measuring according to your ordered item to make sure it will fit prior to collecting.

PLEASE NOTE IMPROPER CARE CAN VOID YOUR WARRANTY (ALL ITEMS INCLUDE 12 MONTHS WARRANTY)
MUD KITCHENS
- Benchtops need to be coated with marine grade decking oil every 3 months
- When the bench starts to grey use a sander to bring it back then coat with decking oil
- If mildew occurs follow the same instructions as when they grey
- Cracks/splinters may occur from timber drying out and occasionally can happen to benchtops.
- Clear coat is required every 6-12 months on painted kitchen frames
- Raw and stained kitchens must be clear coated every 3 months to ensure they are safe for your little ones as all of our framing timber is treated to prevent rot (spray clear coat is best for this part)
- Cover when not in use. Barbecue covers can be great for this. Leaving under a deck is not considered covering your kitchen.
- Wipe bench tops down after use
- Do not climb on your kitchens
- Oven frames, chalkboard frames and dials are not treated and require clear coat every 3 months
- If your kitchen is left uncovered we do not take responsibility for how it reacts to different weather conditions but we do recommend for you to clear coat more frequently if you aren't covering them (please do cover them)
INDOOR KITCHENS
- These are for indoors or enclosed cubby houses only
- When using the mild water play option please ensure you wipe benchtop thoroughly after use
- Re coat benchtop with a clear coat every 6 months if being used in a cubby house or for water play
- Clear coat oven trim every 3 months if it's being exposed to any elements
CHALKBOARDS
- Chalkboards are to be removed from fence after use to prevent water pooling behind it or alternatively you can use a cover
- Chalkboard paint is not made for outdoors and there will be some fade over time so covering/ storing it will help it's life span but you can recoat when needed
- If you're leaving the chalkboard on the fence uncovered we recommend clear coating the back and frame every 3-6 months. We take no responsibility for how they react to the weather when not properly cared for
- Chalkboard paint may crack over time so reapply every 6 months or as necessary with a paint brush or roller
ZOOS
- Position against a wall using a safety strap
- Frequently check your zoos strings to keep them intact
- Remove all strings if damage occurs
