Shovel 18 cm (assorted colours)
A classic shovel in fun, vibrant colours. No bells and whistles - just a classic toy perfect for big and small digging adventures. You’ll be amazed how fast your child can dig all the sand out of the sandbox and then shovel it (well, most of it) back in again.
Your child can also use their curiosity and imagination to dig for treasures or go on an exciting bug hunt. Maybe you'll decide to build a sandcastle together, with a super cool moat around it, of course.
It’s always a fun surprise whether the shovel arrives in blue, red, or yellow.
The shovel is Nordic Swan Ecolabelled, food safe, and dishwasher safe.
Part of the Classic collection.
What makes this product special
Toys for learning through play
Play is essential for children’s learning, well-being, and development. Through play, children learn about themselves and the world around them.
Play helps children:
• stay curious
• focus and become absorbed in what they're doing
• take on age-appropriate challenges
• build confidence
We believe children learn best by doing things for themselves:
• by making mistakes
• by getting messy
• by falling down and getting back up again
Resilience, confidence, and courage grow through experience, one small step at a time.
That's why we carefully choose toys that encourage independence, imagination, movement, and social skills — offering just the right balance of support, freedom, and opportunities to grow.
Carefully selected toys
We carefully handpick every toy from the vast world of toys available today. The only toys that make it into our range are ones we'd be happy to give our own children.
Every toy at ToyAcademy should:
• support learning through play
• be made from durable, high-quality materials
• be safe and enjoyable for children to play with
