Scrambling with Bob the builder

Advantages: good toy
Disadvantages: none

...Scrambler This born to play toy a replica of the one Bob the builder has gives great fun to children who love Bob the builder TV programme and books. Scrambler as you might guess from the name is a vehicle that can scramble around on rough ground, on building sites (or the gravel/sand play pits) . This toy often comes with a little trailer and a jointed Bob the builder figure. This is a blue vehicle with seating for one toy person. It has handle bars not a steering wheel for turning. When this toy is rolled along the ground the googly eyes on the front jiggle up and down. This is a friction vehicle and can be made to zoom pretty fast across a solid floor. This toy as the other Bob the builder toys is plastic its well made should last many play hours. Ideal for both home and play settings. Children really do love this...

Can Dodger help Bob ?

Advantages: A good vehicle
Disadvantages: none

...Can Dodger help Bob fix it? Yes he can. Vroom Dodgers wheels and the friction will make him speed along the hard floor to the next building job. Dodger moves ok on the carpet but not so fast. Wendy can open Dodgers doors. Bob can open the engines bonnet as he thinks there might be a problem there. Dodger is a two seater truck it?s quite new. This truck is useful . There is a rotating crane fixed in the trailer this can be used to pick up those bricks with the hook at the end of the attached string. Careful try and lift the bricks into the trailer bit difficult find something with a loop on it to lift. Before I get carried away in a world of make believe building with Dodger let me describe him. Dodger is a blue and white tow truck on Bob the Builders team. He is a friction vehicle. Size 18(l) x 10(w) x 11(h) cm. There is...

Bristle , Bobs mate

Advantages: Bob fans love him
Disadvantages: None really

...can then be removed by opening the door on the waste unit . The waste unit will tilt. Bristle is a good size he is 9/5 x 15 x 8cm. We use bristle on the floor , on a table or on the road mat. I find he will, [pick up small items that we scatter to represent rubbish as well as those balls. I like this Bob the builder toy. It encourages imaginary play from the children. Also is good for their gross and fine motor skills. Sometimes I try to encourage a child to push the vehicle to me , this is sometimes difficult for my children, letting go of the toy and pushing in the right direction. This action also is encouraging them to relate to others and interact with them. Yes if you have a Bob mad child I would recommend this toy its suitable for children aged 3 and over . Bristle will cost you £6.75 from http...

Bob the Builder

Advantages: keeps children happy
Disadvantages: none

...My 2-year-old baby is totally loves Bob the Builder, you know the little builder who asks, and ?can we fix it?? So for her birthday I brought her the Singing Bob the Builder. Bob is in a sitting down position and is dressed in his normal outfit of a pair of denim dungarees, his yellow and orange shirt, soft brown boots and a yellow soft hard hat (as he is a builder). His body is made soft and is squeezable and easy for little hands to hold on to and cuddle. He also has a tool belt around his belly that has a screwdriver, hammer and a little spanner in it and is also soft. She loves her Bob the Builder. Everywhere she goes Bob goes. She will sit there for hours playing and talking with him, and when he starts to sing she joins in. Some toys children can get bored of really easy but this Bob the Builder keeps her busy for hours. She...

Scrambling Around With Bob

Advantages: Really cool looking Bob toy
Disadvantages: None

...***Background*** Who out there isn't familiar with the character Bob The Builder? There can't be many hands going up, but if you haven't heard of this character from the series that appears on Cbeebies, here's some information about him. A while ago, Bob was given the job of helping to create Sunflower Valley, where everything is as green as it can be. He got this job when his designs were specially picked in a competition, although to be fair I had never heard of any other builders in Bobsville at the time so it couldn't have been a big shock to him. Anyway - I digress, for he not only got the contract, but won Scrambler too. This four-wheeler, all-terrrain vehicle is always very energetic and loves nothing better than a race across any type of country. He speaks in a very high and squeaky voice and loves to shout out...

Off Roading with Bob and Friends

Advantages: Sturdy, friction action, can get with accessories if you keep an eye out
Disadvantages: Children who abuse toys when playing may damage parts

...It's probably not that surprising that with a five year old boy in the house, that we have a toy box with Bob the Builder toys taking residence. Our little boy has been a Bob fan ever since he could focus his eyes on the TV, thanks to having a slightly older sister who adored Cbeebies and Nick Jr. Once he got to be 3, he began to show a big interest in toy cars and trucks as well, so his eye was delightedly caught in the shops when he saw Bob's beloved vehicles available as toys. Ever since then, for birthdays and Christmas, we have added to his Bob collection with at least one vehicle. Scrambler is a four wheeled ATV vehicle who just loves to go offroading, which during the course of various Bob the Builder episodes, leads to various scenarios of him getting in trouble OR saving the day, or both. He is a peripheral character who...

Pack O' Rum, Bob!!!

Advantages: Well made truck from the series.
Disadvantages: None

...***Background*** Some of you might be wondering about the title so let me explain. When my son was being asked what he would like for Christmas, he replied that he would love to get Packer from Bob. Unfortunately the person he was telling had no idea what he was saying and thought he said, Pack O' Rum, Bob. This caused much hilarity and kinda stuck. My son was not given any alcohol for Christmas, lol, but did receive this truck. Packer is another slightly newer character in the Bob the Builder series. This series is of course extremely popular amongst youngsters everywhere and can be regularly seen on the BBC Channels, especially Cbeebies. Of course there is also a lot of merchandising out there to do with Bob, in the form of DVDs, games, clothes and of course friction toys. ***The Toy*** Packer is an American style...
