Description
This kids' push-up umbrella spreads a pale cream canopy covered in the bright animals of the Wild Wonders design. Sleepy orange lions, red and black toucans, turquoise elephants, green snakes dotted with yellow, spotted yellow big cats, little parrots and butterflies tumble among pink, green and blue leaves, so there is something to spot on every panel. The handle is a chunky turquoise crook, and every rib ends in a rounded turquoise tip, with one more at the very top. It measures 70cm across, 70cm long and 53cm high, and weighs just 202g.
A push-up umbrella opens by hand: push the canopy up the shaft until it sits open, then fold it back down when the shower passes. That makes it a handy companion for the walk to school, puddle hunts in the park and drizzly days out, and at 202g it is light enough for a child to carry along. The crook handle is easy to grip in a small hand and hooks neatly over an arm, a pram handle or a peg by the front door, so it is ready whenever the clouds roll in. We think it suits any child who loves animals, and it turns a grey morning into something far more cheerful.
It is made from nylon, metal and polypropylene plastic, with a slim metal shaft running from the crook to the canopy. After a wet walk, give it a gentle shake and leave it open somewhere airy to dry before folding it away, and wipe the handle with a damp cloth when it needs it. Closed, it folds down slim enough to tuck beside a school bag. As a present, it brings a little colour to the rainiest days, and the bold print is easy to pick out on a row of coat pegs.
