Default Scratch marks on wooden floors

Children's cycles, sharp toys, dropping cutlery - all leave scratch marks on wooden floors. How can I repair these? One or two are quite deep and a few are just scratches.

For light scratches Milly I sand these out around every 2-3 years when I do my regular maintainence work on the floors. They are re wax ed as well to bring the wood back to a good condition. For larger scratches the only long term option is to try a wood filler or perhaps disguise the area with a mat or stand.

Try a wood filler. I know that Minwax, and I'm sure several other stain companies, offer wood fillers in several colors that you may find will match your floor stain. Your other options are a stainable wood filler, but that will be much more work.
