The F.A.Q. for Little Helper Broom Set (Schylling)

My son likes to "help" when i sweep. By help, i mean grab the broom and put the dirty bristles in his mouth. Having a toddler means i sweep up messes several times a day and it was beginning to become difficult. I ordered this hoping it would entertain my son so i could get some cleaning done. He loved it. As soon as it came he picked it up. He carried it around the house all day. I had to pry it out of his hands at nap time. It is seriously one of his favorite toys. It is also well made. I have not noticed any bristles shedding and the handle and dustpan are made of a durable thick plastic. I would purchase this again and again.

A number of questions have been asked here.

Best little helper broom set (schylling) in review

I like this broom, and it's not for a kid, it's for me. Its small size is perfect to tuck right next to the toilet, in a bathroom with a cat box. It seems about every ten seconds the damn cat is stepping in there and leaving painful (for bare feet) little bits of cat litter all over our tile floor. So instead of having to drag the vacuum from wherever the heck it is in the house to that particular bathroom every eleven seconds, i just grab this handy little broom to sweep the granules of pain off to the side until the next vacuuming. The synthetic bristles have a good stiffness, and they are dense enough to do the job well. And this adult is just fine with the bright primary colors. I have no opinion on the dust bin and little broom that comes with it - going to give that away.

Any time i try to sweep the kitchen floor my toddler insists on using the broom first. I found this little set and the sizing is perfect, it's actually slightly too big for him which is perfect so he can grow into it. He grabbed it and started trying to sweep as soon as i had the broom screwed into the handle! it comes with a broom, brush and dust pan - exactly what we use so he could mimic perfectly.

My 16 month old son loves this set. He kept going in the closet and digging out the normal broom, but the handle is just too long for him. Then i found this set. He has played with it every day for a over week now. It actually sweeps nicely, you can get dirt into the dust pan, the little sweeper fits in the dust pan. Very practical toy and good for teaching life skills. The reason i took off one star is my husband accidentally stepped on it and bent the broom handle fairly easily. He did bend it back slightly but didn't want to go too far since it would have came apart. Now the broom head is at a slight angle but my son doesn't care (and i'm sure he doesn't even notice). I would buy this again.

Bottom line. I recommend this product for real-household use. . Experience. My preschooler has had the responsibility of cleaning the floor after meal times since she could walk. I used to give her a regular-sized hand broom and dust pan to use. While she got the job done, it was obvious that she would be more comfortable and with a downsized version. . Since receiving this product, my child is more confident and loves that she now has a "full-size' broom in addition to the hand broom. The bristles are stiff enough to clean up real messes. She has used these products to not only sweep up food, but to also sweep up messes such as the wood chips she brings in from the playground. . This product is not used as a toy, so it is holding up quite well for our use. My preschooler is just under 40'; i think she still can use this as she continues to grow. I have used it a few times just to test it out; i believe that an adult/child in the height range would be comfortable using this for real-life cleaning.

Have had this for over a year and it has kept up well with regular toddler use! i have even cleaned up many a spill with it when the "real broom" has been a room too far over to get to, ha. Teach 'em to do their chores, starting out as a toy couldn't get any better.

We bought this for our 15 month old son because he likes to get our kitchen broom and carry it around the house. To no surprise, he loves this broom set just as much as the real thing, and has been carrying the broom around non-stop. . The handle on this broom is, of course, kid-sized, making it easier for the little ones to tote it around without bumping the stick into things in the house. Our 15 month-old has no issues carrying it. The small broom and scoop are just as cool as the broom, but honestly, our son just sticks to the big broom mostly. . Pros:. - lightweight, short handle broom for the small kids. - the brooms are actually made quite well, and could really be used to clean up if needed. - handle has a hole to hang it out of the way (with the real brooms) when done playing. . Cons:. - honestly, i can't think of anything. . Overall, this is a great set for little kids, especially if they already show interest in the real brooms in the house. It's amazing how the simple things can entertain kids so well.

For some strange reason, my son loves sweeping. He is about 2 and loves playing with this set. It is well built and hasn't come apart yet so for the price i have no complaints. He often "helps" sweep when we are cleaning the house.

My 6, 4, and 2 year old grandprincesses are loving the set! i actually got two sets - one for my house, one for theirs. My daughter loves them having the set to be able to help clean the kitchen! (ok, to be honest, the two older ones help and the 2 year old . "helps" - but it's good training, right? ) in fact, my daughter uses the broom herself for little jobs (which somehow the 2 yr. Old contributes to more than her share of creating. Go figure. ) once the weather warms up, the grands can't wait to use the tools here on the patio and sidewalk outside, instead of having to settle for just a fir branch. Time will tell if the broom handle has issues such as some other reviewers complain of. I'll update if so.

Thank goodness the minions can finally help with the messes they make! ha! just kidding! honestly! it is the perfect height for both my 18 month old and my 3 year old (my 10 year old daughter would love to think its perfect for her too, but it's a little small for her). It's light weight enough for both toddlers to carry and use, but heavy enough that they have to put some motion into using it. Great shipping, price and happy toddlers. My only complaint is that is dents easily. But oh well! fun is fun and the girls are happy! dent or no dent and really. It's a toy! i will buy them a real one when they are teens that won't dent and then they can seriously help out! although, by then, i'm sure they won't be so eager to help!

M. Williams, Nova Scotia says

My little helper loves her broom set. This set is sturdy enough to be used by an active toddler on a messy kitchen floor. I have even used it myself for a quick clean up of smaller messes and it works well. It is a great way for littles to help out with cleaning!

G. Maria, Basse-Normandie

My sons love to copy me while i clean the house, and they want to "help". . I thought recently that gettin them their own supplies would be adorable. My youngest is 1, and he really really loves getting the broom out. My 3yo likes sweeping it into the dust pan. They had trouble with real ones being too bit to handle though. . I riders this and they already have gone crazy sweeping the entire house for hours! they were so excited! it was adorable. . The broom and everything is also made very sturdy. It isn't cheap plastic at all. It is nice and thick plastic, and won't be easily broken by two crazy boys.

This is a real deal broom set. My 2 year old loves the regular broom and dustpan! he wants to carry it through the house and sweep up everything! cute, but yuck! plus my broom and pan are way too big for him. So, i did what i do best and looked on online store. For $10 bucks, i got a three piece set that is sized for a toddler and has never been used to clean up actual messes. The broom handle screws into the head of broom and the hand broom clips into the dust pan when not in use. The bristles are not as good as a real broom, but darn near close. My son is 36" tall (i'm 5'10". We're a tall family) and i can tell he will not outgrow it for quite a while. Now, he "cleans up" whenever he wants to or he "helps" mama with his broom when i'm sweeping the floor. I don't have to fight him for the actual broom and it's less germy. I also like how it looks like a grown broom and dustpan. Others are too cartoony and fake. My son knows the difference and would not have been receptive to others. It's just like when he was a baby i gave him play phone so he'd stop with my phone. That lasted all of 5 seconds and he immediately went after the real phone. He just knows. So if your son is like mine, you will not be disappointed. This set is essentially just a kid sized broom and dust pan.

Perfect for my 2 year old grandson. When i visited him and his family last summer he wanted to hold the dustpan for me every night when i swept the kitchen and dining area. So when he came to visit us for thanksgiving i had this brightly colored broom set standing against my kitchen wall and as soon as he saw it he was sold. He carried the broom around with him for the whole week and even had to tuck it in for night, night when he went to bed each evening. It's a nice little broom set, all plastic but all sturdy. Makes nonnie happy to make grandson happy!
