This Sandbox Tool is a Digging Toy That Teaches Hand-Eye Coordination
Laura McQuarrie — August 6, 2013 — Life-Stages
This sandbox tool is a step up from the tiny kids spades and shovels that you might normally find on the playground. The 'Commercial Sandbox Digger' is a serious-looking toy that will certainly fuel kids' dreams of digging to China or creating an underground city. Beyond this, this toy is a powerful tool to help kids learn hand-eye coordination. In addition to this, the toy requires movement of the full body, keeping kids active as well.
The shovel has a sturdy steel body and swivelling joints that is durable enough to burrow through the earth and even tougher for being handled by kids on the playground.
As well, this toy can be used across many seasons, even in the winter, although mobility might be a little more challenging when kids are bundled up tightly in their snowsuits.
