Dino Construction Co.™ -Brachiosaurus Backhoe

Noah was sent a very different kind of digger from Learning Resources, a Dino Construction Brachiosaurus Backhoe. I have never seen anything like this before and Noah absolutely loved it. Not only is it a digger, its a dinosaur and more importantly it’s a hiding place for Noah’s trains (from Isla).

I am really impressed with how sturdy the toy is, the wheels are like “proper” diggers with the threads that move around and it teaches Noah about the different types of vehicles. I love all the little details about the digger, like the dinosaur tracks on the threads. Great idea and I am looking forward to setting up the sand pit to see the impression that digger makes.

The Dino Construction Brachiosaurus Backhoe has a lot of great features:

Telescopic neck
Movable jaws
Digger arm with scoop
360° rotating cab
Dino track threads

But I think Noah’s favourite feature is the mouth with the moveable jaws, he loves putting things in the jaws and closing them – hiding them from Isla. He thinks it’s brilliant and I will spend hours hunting the playroom to find all the toys, to put them neatly away for the next day and it takes me a long time to hunt them all out of Noah’s little hiding spaces. I obviously check their first now!
