Keep your children in fear and their toys safe with the Toy Guardian. This toy box, designed by Tzung-Yu Lu, can also be used as a wagon for your child and their toys.
When children play, they usually use each and every toy they have and end up making a huge mess. Nine times out of ten, mom or dad is left to clean said mess, with no child in sight. The Toy Guardian makes picking up toys fun with its menacing yet cute design. The Toy Guardian's wheels also make it perfect for trips to the park or beach. I wish my toys were this safe when I was a child.
