Hi Lorraine
I have pebbles in Marly's table. I put them in a sieve and ran hot water over them, then dried them with a clean towel. Hope that helps. Marly loves pebbles

morrisons and £-Stretchers have those shiny flat ones at about £1, I would just give them a rinse under the hot tap too

I love using Milton too for sterilising tort stuff, much safer than bleach!
