Toy broom and dustpan set Hape Clean Up Broom Set for children, multicolour, ages 3–8

Hape Clean Up Broom Set for children, multicolour, ages 3–8 is a child-sized play cleaning kit designed for preschool and early primary use. The set includes a broom and dustpan scaled for small hands and constructed from child-safe materials to support pretend play and simple tidying tasks. It encourages role-play, development of fine motor skills, and early responsibility through supervised play at home or in group settings.

Advantages

The set is made to match children’s proportions and offers components that are easy to grasp and manipulate. Its colourful, durable design supports repeated use in imaginative cleaning scenarios while providing safe edges and non-toxic finishes appropriate for ages 3–8. By combining play and practical activity, the kit helps children observe cause-and-effect and practice coordination in a low-pressure environment.

Suitable for

• Role-play and pretend cleaning games at home or in preschool
• Developing fine motor control and hand-eye coordination
• Introducing basic household routines and responsibility
• Group play activities that teach sharing and turn-taking

Key specifications

• Intended age range: 3–8 years
• Set contents: child-sized broom and dustpan (multicolour)
• Materials: child-safe, non-toxic painted components (plastic and/or wood components as per manufacturer design)

How to use

Provide the set to a child under appropriate adult supervision. Show how to hold the broom with both hands, sweep debris into the dustpan, and tilt the dustpan to transfer contents to a bin. Encourage short, guided tidying activities and demonstrate safe handling and storage after play. Use gentle cleaning motions and avoid forcing the child to perform tasks beyond their motor abilities.

Usage recommendations

Store the broom and dustpan on a low hook or stand within the child’s reach to promote independent access and tidy storage. Clean surfaces of the set with a damp cloth; do not immerse in water if wooden parts are present. Supervise play and integrate short, positive routines to reinforce good habits.
