One of the great joys of childhood is to ‘help’ with adult activities, like cooking, gardening or washing the car.
To help your little ones make the most of the only time in their lives when chores are legit fun and games, Dyson has released a miniature version of their popular ball vacuum.
It’s a toy, but it actually works, and it only costs $30 to boot.
The Dyson Toy Ball Vacuum reaches just 25 inches and features a mini cyclone spinner with visible foam balls, suction action, and genuine vacuum sounds.
The minimum age is three years old, and reviewers are raving about gifting the realistic machine to little ones who love helping around the house.
“My son LOVES this thing. He follows me around the entire house with it and just has a blast,” wrote one reviewer on Amazon.
“If it broke tomorrow it would have been worth it and I would buy another,” said another.
“Our son is OBSESSED with vacuums and carpet cleaners. We got him this for Christmas, and it was the only gift he cared about. He has been ‘vacuuming’ for 4 days straight,” one customer wrote
Catch up on the latest Fitzy & Wippa podcast:
It has control buttons which allow you to turn the suction function on or off, which is great if your bub’s scared of loud noises.
It also has a detachable dustbin on the back that can be emptied and runs on four C batteries.
Us and our bank accounts wish the toy was a substitute for the real thing, but while the vacuum can suck up crumbs and bits of paper, it probably wouldn’t clean a whole room.
Good training for their teenage years though.
