Mini Builder's Buckets - Pack of 4

Strong, sturdy, and ready for action, this pack of 4 Mini Builder’s Buckets is ideal for transporting anything from play sand and water to imaginary cement. At 15cm tall, they’re the perfect size for EYFS and primary role play, without compromising on strength—these are made from the same tough material as full-size builder’s buckets, just scaled down for smaller hands and bigger imaginations.

Each bucket features an easy-pour spout, making them ideal for filling and emptying in a sand and water table or mud kitchen. With a variety of bright colours, they bring extra excitement to outdoor water play, construction-themed role play, and sensory setups.

Perfect for use in our Wooden Sheltered Sandpit - (W)1.6m, Sand & Water Tray And Stand, or as part of a , these mini buckets support fine and gross motor development, early maths skills like volume and capacity, and encourage collaboration and communication during play.

Built to withstand serious scooping and pouring, they’re equally at home in a Large Builder’s Yard - (W)180cm x (L)180cm. Just don’t be surprised if someone insists on being the site manager… hard hat optional.
