Great excavator - a little stiff for the little hands

I have my 2 year old son paid the excavator before the holiday and had the vision of a child who sits constantly in the sand and dredged with his excavator :-). The car is very beautiful, sturdy but unfortunately something schwergänging to handle. For straight 2-year-old, he is perhaps not quite the right thing, but I vemute that the excavator will not be an integral part in a few months from the daily game. It is recommended in any case.
