Can anyone recommend a wheelbarrow for a 15 month old - but big and growing
fast - it`s got to be sturdy enough to do little jobs, I am not a bully but
some children are very serious about picking up stuff and putting it into
their own wheelbarrow :-) There is one on the Early Learning website but is
there a better one out there I ask ?

If the ELC one had been the same as the metal one they used to sell I'd have
recommended it (ours is still out in the garden and the original user has
just gone up to uni).

Not so sure about plastic ones though.

If you google for metal child's wheelbarrow there seem to be one at about
£25, but with a recommended age of 3 years, it may not be stable enough for
a younger child.

your metal one sound excellent but you are right in thinking that a metal
one would be too much for a toddler, she is a big lass and a bonny lass -
Granny bursting into song :-) but I will continue looking, there do seem to
be a fair few to choose from I was just looking for a recommendation
thanks anyway

The Bosch one looks good we could jolly it up a bit with bright stickers or
she could paint it herself :-) We bought my grandson a set of gardening
tools - cannot remember what the make was -they were a good and strong
version of grown up ones, two years later he is still using them, start them
off young I say :-)

Our oldest grand daughter often helps with potting things up in the Nursery
and loves choosing plants for her mother's garden etc. It's been part of
her life always, so I hope she grows up to think of it as a joy and never a
chore.

That is a very good idea Derek, plenty of room for mud worms and toys,
there is also space for a wee girl when she is tired out and Granny can pull
it, thank you :-)
