Why it works

Three construction machines for the price of a small gift, big enough for 3-year-old hands. Each one moves something, the arm, the bucket or the dumper body, which is what turns a toy vehicle into a game of loading and unloading. They work on the rug and, if you do not mind washing them, in the sandpit.

Our verdict

It works well as a small gift for ages 3 to 5 with digger fever. For something that lasts more years, look at the Playmobil patrol car.

They will like it if

  • they stop in front of every building site
  • they play at loading and unloading

Bear in mind

  • no motor, lights or sound: the child playing supplies it all
  • from the age of 6 they seem dull

What's in the box

  • 3 vehicles of 16 cm
  • Official Volvo licence
  • One moving part on each vehicle
  • Rotating wheels
  • Can be used alone
