Editorial Review

Perhaps the cutest construction vehicles to ever take to the road, the tough oversize trucks from Little Tikes feature well-rounded seams and corners and a rugged plastic build, perfect for the small hands and boisterous attention of enthusiastic young road workers. This 12-inch-long, 9-inch-high, and 9-inch-wide dump truck, cast in bright yellow and black, gets around on fat plastic tires and has a bed that really lifts up to dump its load. The truck's simple design also makes a quick hose-off easy after a long day in the sandbox. --Paul Hughes

Product Description

Toddlers live to move stuff around, and filling a dump truck with sand slips in some nice hand-eye coordination; then pushing the dump truck around the beach pumps up gross-motor development. Don't be surprised if other kids come around to help your small-equipment operator: This constructive beach toy tends to attract workers.

My 2 year old received this for his birthday and out
of all of the toys that he got, this was his favorite.

It is simple, safe, durable and easy for a toddler to use.
The hard plastic is great (he also received a metal version
of this which we have tucked away for him - not safe).

If you buy one dump truck, make this one your purchase.
It's worth it.

5.0 out of 5 stars A solid little dump truck, June 4, 2000

This is a nearly indesructible monster dump truck that performs well outdoors. It has a large dumper that holds lots of sand and dumps well. It's pretty simple, but a lot of fun, particularly outdoors. It is almost completely plastic so it hoses off easily.

This review is from: Little Tikes BIG Dump Truck (Toy)

This is just one fun toy. It doesn't have bunches of buttons or knobs. It is pure creativity, kid driven fun. It dumps and rolls and makes great tracks in the sand. It holds a lot of sand or other items. It is very sturdy and very easy to use.

My one and only complaint is that this is fairly big and doesn't fit anywhere in our house with any ease. But if it were any smaller, it would not be as fun I think.

If you look for toys that inspire creativity, exploration and play, this is a good toy to have. If you want a toy that is fairly quiet, has more than a button you push to make noise, and is easy to play with, this is a good toy to have.

Enjoy.
