FELCO’s Kids range of functional tools for young hands
GTN Xtra Promotion

 

Introducing children to gardening is a meaningful way to encourage curiosity, confidence, and a lifelong connection to the natural world.

 

FELCO’s Kids range is thoughtfully designed to support that journey with real, functional tools adapted for young hands.

 

The FELCO 14 KIDS pruning shears provide an early introduction to pruning traditions.

 

As well as ergonomic comfort, its safety features include rounded blades, and a 2-position thumb catch allowing for a smaller, halfway opening option, making it easier for children’s hands – suitable for ages eight and up.

 

For younger gardeners, the FELCO 470 KIDS trowel and fork set offers a sturdy steel-and‑ash‑wood pairing ideal for planting seeds and bulbs while encouraging shared moments outdoors.

 

The range expands further with the FELCO 720 KIDS gloves, made from sheepskin leather with a breathable Spandex back.

 

Designed for ages four to ten, they offer dexterity, comfort, and Category‑1 protection against minor scratches, perfect for hands‑on exploration.

 

The FELCO 490 KIDS apron complements this, crafted from durable, water‑resistant cotton canvas with reinforced leather pockets, giving children a protective and practical layer for all kinds of outdoor tasks.

 

Central to the collection is the Little Green Fingers activity book, to compliment the FELCO’s kids’ range of garden tools.

 

It presents twelve monthly chapters filled with creative and practical gardening projects, such as seed‑bomb making, insect‑hotel building, and seasonal planting, developed with gardening and education specialists.

 

Together, these tools and activities make gardening engaging, safe, and rewarding.

 

By giving children the right equipment and guidance, FELCO helps nurture patience, environmental awareness, and the satisfaction of caring for something that grows.

 

Burton McCall Ltd distribute FELCO within the UK.
