Gardening Reviews

My daughter, who's now 8 and I have made these using her hand print for every Grandma, Grandpa, aunt, uncle and of course, Mom and Dad, too. They are great gifts. Inexpensive, but priceless to those lucky enough to get them. My Daughter with the help of my Mom made one for me for Christmas one year. I can't tell you how much I LOVE my stepping stone with her little handprint in it. You can also take a toothpick or something and write the child's name, "I love you" or whatever to make it even more personal. None of the stones we've made have broken either and by last count, we've made 8. Oh, one other thing that we tried with the last two we made was painting them with some outdoor paint and that turned out real cute too. Give these as gifts and you can't go wrong!

I have used this with my 3 year old on 3 separate occasions and she absolutely loves it! It takes a lot of parental involvement and help with the actual mixing process (adding the ingredients), but she was able to stir it herself and LOVED putting the stones in. I supplemented with marbles, floral stones, and some stones specific to mosaics that I found at a craft store. All in all - a wonderful project that provides years of creative options and play, as well as great parental involvement. I gave a high educational value since creativity is one of the key foundations of education for preschoolers.

My housemates and I had fun making tiles for our garden! This kit is great. So is the other Mosaic Tile one. I know it's for kids, but it really adds something special to my little garden!

What a fantastic toy from Step 2. My daughter is having a blast with this toy! She is an outdoor type of girl and insists on being outside Morning, Noon and Night. With this fun Wheelbarrow she can haul the rocks she finds in the backyard, dirt, leaves, even her wienner dog too! Lots of fun for any child - mines almost 2. A great product with lots of fun in it. It also has two open holders so that she can put her tools in it. Thank you Step 2 for a wonderful product that will be used now and in the years to come!!!!

My daughter, Saffron, absolutely loves this toy! Not only does it teach her about green-thumbing, it also encourages a HUGE amount of outdoor activity! And, as any modern parent can attest, getting the ankle-biters outside once in a while can be really hard. I blame TV. TV and all those sedatives they keep giving out at school. What's up with that? When I was in elementary school the only thing the nurse did was check for lice and call your mom when you wet your pants. It's a different age, I guess. We like our cars trucks and our kids barely conscious.

Anyway, the only word of advice I would give is: check your plant for spiders before your little darling takes a running leap into his or her new shrub. We've had one bad day of spider wounds, but everything else has been wound-free! And isn't that the most you can hope for? And dads, don't worry, it comes with the guarantee that your sons won't 'turn sissy' from horticulture.

Enjoy!

I bought three of these for my 2 year old triplets. They LOVE blues clues! They played with the bubble feature all day on their birthday. Devin even slept with sand clawing tool that night because he was convinced "blue" gave him that present. I took it to the beach with them and another kid there tried to take them away cause he wanted a "bues cues" too. The face did wash off, which was frustrating, but I took my paints and painted a face back on. My kids don't know the difference, and I don't have to keep returning the product.

My 2-year-old daughter loves this toy. She plays with it in the tub, in her sandbox, and on the beach. However, the pail's face and Blue's colored nose rubbed off after taking it to the beach for a day. We contacted the company that made this product, and they are sending us a new one. My little girl won't go anywhere without it, so I would still highly recommend this toy!

I think that this toy allows fun and education into children. It gives them a craft to play with when they are bored, and is fun for anyone to play with. I defenitely recommend this one of a kind "Wee Enchanted Garden Kit." My child Jessica who is 10, just loves crafts! I also teach in a school and bring crafts for them to do all the time! They seem to really enjoy it a bunch! this is totally a five star kit!

It was so cool!I loved it!I could design it anyway I wanted to.Thanks!

MY DAUGHTER LOVES FAIRIES SO I HAD TO ORDER THIS. IN 3 DAYS WE HAD 6 INCHES OF GRASS AND A FEW BEAN SPROUT TREES!!!! SHE LOVES TAKING CARE OF HER FAIRIES!!!!

This is so much better than the plastic wheelbarrows. My son has it all - toy blowers, weadeaters, mowers, etc. and this is his favorite because it actually looks just like daddy's! He hauls dirt, flowers, and of course, toys everywhere. We have had this since Christmas and it has lasted well.

When I gave this to my 4 1/2 year old nephew the first thing he did was pile his toys in it and give them a ride. I don't agree with the reviewers who think this is small. It looks like my nephew has alot of growing to do before anyone could suggest it was too small for him. My only problem was putting it together which is surprisingly difficult. That is more of a two person job.

This wheelbarrow is just like the ones adults use, but sized for 2 to 5 year olds. It is manufactured really well (not at all like the flimsy plastic ones you'll see at your local toystore) and is easy to assemble. Our children have used theirs to haul snow, sand, rocks, sticks, leaves, water, dolls, blocks, and eachother. Watch their self-esteem and self-confidence grow as they really contribute to outdoor chores by hauling their own load in their own wheelbarrow! This toy is durable and will be around long after my children have outgrown it. (Note - in case this is a gift, be careful where you have it shipped to because our wheelbarrows arrived in the original boxes you'd see in the toystore, with big pictures of the wheelbarrow on the side.) We couldn't be happier with this purchase of a quality Radio Flyer product.

This rake is great! It's not plastic and cheap, it's metal and strong and works just like a "grown-up" rake. It really works. Both my kids love it and I actually get them to help!!

This is a nice garden set that my 3 year old carries around with ease. The pieces are easy to handle for his little hands when he is helping daddy around the yard. The set is more for pretend than for actual digging. The pieces fit nicely in the tote that is similar to my garden set.

I cannot believe I paid [money] for an item that is falsely advertised. This pouch looks to be pretty large, even the picture of the little girl you use makes it look bigger...all in all this item was the size of my two fists put together, what a waste of time AND money! Now I have to go out and buy something for Easter regardless as I am returning this waste of time to you. Even the tool that are included are so small I am not sure WHO would enjoy this product. All in ALL I am VERY dissapointed in this product...I will not recommmend this to ANYONE EVER.

This is a great little present for the spring time....but it says 3 and up - it should be under 3! It's quite babyish!
