Look on the can, there should be a consumer hotline number, call them and they should be able to tell you. You should also confirm that the producet is safe for use around children. If you used any type of sanding sealer, or stane you should do the same thing.

Good luck

The polyurethane usually is already dry in 1 week. So if it is already stay for twoo week, it should be dry enough for your daughter.

good luck
