“my almost 5 yr old son carries his shovel about when there's snow on the ground for constant imaginative "work". Well sized, sturdy yet light enough for a child to easily handle. Also good for piling snow to make a snowman, or ramp for sled, or snow fort, or.... Loads of fun.”

“It is a real shovel, not a toy. It works very well. I used it myself to scrape the ice from our playground after the last ice storm. It worked better than my heavy-duty adult size shovel. It is very lightweight and strong and really does the job. Kids LOVE it! My 2 and 3 year old are busy cleaning the snow every day! Keeps them occupied, physically active and promotes the idea of helping the parents. They nap better too:) Couldn't be happier with this purchase. Let it snow! :)”

“We received these only days before a snow storm. My 3 & 5 year olds had a blast "helping" Mommy & Daddy clean up the snow.”
