About this item

The John Deere Build-A-Buddy Skid Steer features two great ways to play! This 13-piece construction toy includes a sturdy ratchet tool that lets kids take it apart and put it back together again. This activity is great for encouraging problem-solving skills, spatial awareness, and early mechanical understanding. Made of chunky parts, it's easy for little hands to assemble the parts and maneuver them into place without frustration or assistance. But the fun doesn't stop there! After it is put together, the skid steer is a great push-along toy for lots of on-the-floor fun during construction site imaginative play. It also features a working scoop that lets kids raise and lower it for plenty of playtime action, teaching mechanical concepts and cause-and-effect. The kid-friendly ratchet is compatible with other Build-A-Buddy toys for expanded play possibilities. The Build-A-Buddy line has received both STEAM Accreditation by the Toy Association and a Good Toy Guide Recommendation. Suitable
