My 18mnth old daughter's hand carved elephant rocker

I got this and the feet were coming apart and was very wobbly.so we took it apart separated the pieces,drilled holes in it,added glue and dowel rods and then clamped it all back together. So then we decided to sand it down and put a sealer/stain on it to hopefully make it last her lifetime and her childrens. It is hand done and they did a really really nice job.
