The ‘Get Me Gardening’ children’s garden tools and accessories have been designed in collaboration with the National Trust, Europe’s largest conservation charity. Created to bring the garden to life for youngsters, these high-quality children’s gardening tools are fun and are made to last, too.

Designed in high-carbon steel and colourfully painted FSC®-certified ash wood, this child’s garden spade will stand up to energetic gardening, as well as play. It has a T-shaped handle, useful if little hands want to use a double-handed grip for serious digging! A tough powder coating protects the steel head from corrosion. An embossed metal badge bearing the National Trust and Burgon & Ball maker’s mark adds the final touch of distinction.

With a five-year guarantee, this hardwearing child’s digging spade will stay the course, until the young gardener is ready to move on to grown-up tools. Like all the items in the ‘Get Me Gardening’ children’s gardening range, this child’s spade carries CE certification, demonstrating that it meets EU standards for health, safety, and environmental protection.

Burgon & Ball tools are the only garden tools to be endorsed by the Royal Horticultural Society, one of the world’s foremost horticultural organisations and the UK's leading gardening charity. All our RHS-endorsed tools carry a ten year guarantee (for cutting tools) or a lifetime guarantee (for stainless steel tools) against manufacturing defects.


Burgon and Ball have been making tools since 1730, and our expertise with steel is packed into this collection. These tools combine high quality materials with ergonomic design, taking the hard work out of gardening and making them a pleasure to use, for many years to come.
