ZINC NATURAL BUCKETS (SET OF 4)

Want to add a touch of rustic chic to your outdoor learning area? Our cream-coloured Small Metal Buckets are the perfect companion to your mud kitchen or outdoor play provision. Whether they're being filled with muddy soup, packed with sand, or used to water your precious veg patch, these zinc buckets bring versatility and vintage vibes in equal measure. This set of four includes child-sized buckets, making them the ideal fit for small hands getting stuck into outdoor, messy and imaginative play. From sand and water stations to gardening corners and mud kitchen masterpieces, these buckets are a brilliant multi-use tool for developing fine and gross motor skills, coordination, and early scientific curiosity. With a sturdy metal design, these buckets are suitable for year-round outdoor use, though we do recommend storing them in a shed or shelter to keep them in top condition. They're also a handy addition to role play zones, encouraging language development and social interaction as children collaborate, collect, and carry.
