Baby Dinos Kids' Dinosaur Tin Case with Handle & Catch

This kids' dinosaur tin case carries the Baby Dinos print: nine bright, friendly dinosaurs in red, orange, blue, green, pink and yellow, set out in three neat rows on a pale cream face scattered with soft white fern and leaf shapes. Among them are a long-necked pink dinosaur, a blue one with a crest of red plates, a striped sail-backed creature and a little red one showing its teeth. The case itself is tinplate, finished in a fresh turquoise around the sides, with a bright yellow plastic carry handle across the top and a silver catch beside it. It measures about 19cm long, 8cm wide and 13.5cm tall, not counting the handle.

It sits happily on a bedroom shelf, a desk or a playroom windowsill, and the handle makes it easy for small hands to carry from room to room or take along on a visit. Inside there is room for crayons, pencils, stickers, hair clips, little figures and all the small bits and pieces that otherwise end up scattered across the floor. For a child who loves dinosaurs it makes a cheerful present, and it gives them a box of treasures all of their own to look after.

The lid opens on a hinge so the whole case lifts wide, and the catch fastens to keep the lid secure while it is carried. The inside is plain silver metal, easy to see into and easy to tip out at tidy-up time. At 0.22KG it is light to carry and tucks neatly onto a shelf between uses. To keep it bright, wipe the outside with a soft damp cloth and dry it straight away, as tinplate is best kept dry rather than soaked. Fill it with a fresh set of colouring pencils and a little sketchbook and you have a ready-made present that stays useful long after the pencils wear down.
