You’ve got a big, dirty job ahead of you, but those are the best kind with the grinding gravel yard set.

This was given to my son for a 3rd birthday gift. It proved a little difficult to crank at first, but once he was shown how to hold with one hand and turn the wheel with the other, he was off and running. LOVES playing with it now. Normally sets that use press forms like this spit out strings of material, but this one has 4 shapes it's spitting out, and it cuts them as it creates. This generates what looks like a pile of little chunks in the dump truck, an extra little bit of realism.

It also comes with a mat, which makes cleanup a little easier as well. Overall I'd say it was well worth the low cost.

My grandson loves dirt. This occupied him for over an hour at a time "making" dirt and trucking it around the mat. My oldest son loved it too!!

By Kristina

Fun little toy, delivered fast. the Little Chuck truck fits underneath to receive loads of gravel. Not only does the gravel yard make gravel... it is a great way to "refresh" play-doh that is drying up. Run it through the gravel mill and sprinkle with water, especially if you set it overnight back in a container to absorb. My little man loves play-doh and loves construction so this was an obvious choice for Christmas. Would recommend to others.

By A. Swain

My 4 yo is into all things construction. This tiny fold out mat and mini-tubes of black and gold play-doh make the perfect little play area on our kitchen table. Using the tiny match box size construction cars along with the little Chuck that came w/ this set, we make lots of gravel and bricks and pretend to make roads. Love that the coating on the mat allows for easy play-doh clean up. Of course, when the weather is warmer, we'll be digging in real dirt, but this small pleasure was worth the money.

By Kelli T.

I love this Playdoh set... and my son does, too. Unlike other sets we have owned, the playdoh never gets stuck in the grinder, which is one of my biggest frustrations with these toys. My son loves to load up the back of the little truck with bricks or gravel and then dump out the entire load on the playmat. Lots of fun for a pretty low price!

Pros:

1)The playdoh does not get stuck in the grinder - so that makes cleanup easy!

2) t's great for imaginative play and it doesn't take up a lot of space.

3) The grinder has small molds on the side, allowing you to make bricks and tires.

4) Inexpensive

Cons:

1) At 2 1/2, my son can't work the grinder on his own. I have to do it with him.
