My father-in-law has this manual yard edge trimmer. My husband showed the Burritos how to use it when we visited Dad a couple of days ago.
Children's curiosity is a great way to introduce them to things like this one.
I like this kind of trimmer because you do not need to
charge it or put string in it to
cut grass. The next day after my husband showed our kids how to use the trimmer, we saw Dad's neighbor using their manual lawn mower which I found to be very neat and practical to use. I'd love to own manual lawn mower and trimmer because it is
convenient and
cheaper to use. You don't need gas to operate them and it's not as noisy as the electric ones.

I have one of those too! They really are much easier to use than the gas/electric one! Looks like your dog thinks it's a play toy! Enjoy the day.
ReplyDeleteI think it's more fun to show kids how to use one of those than to actually use it!
ReplyDeleteI hope the adorable Burritos are a lot of help when they become teenagers too!!!!!!! Just dropped from Beverly's Pin-Yellow party too!

I would never be able to use this edger. I cannot even use an electric one.
ReplyDeleteI love the flag among the shrubs and and trees.
ReplyDeleteEdge trimmers are such a great invention! So simple, yet so practical.

We have an edge trimmer just like that and the kids always loved playing with it ~ lol!! Great shadows it makes too!
ReplyDeleteYour kids are being trained early! Love the shadow that the trimmer makes!
ReplyDeleteSo cute. I need to send you the picture of Eloise up on the part of our roof that is accessible from the upper deck sweeping the leaves out of the gutter with her daddy. It was so cute. Your pictures always put a smile on my face. genie
ReplyDeleteLooks like you saved money on labour costs as well as juice.
ReplyDeleteNice pic..I like it great day 4U and keep in touch..from INDONESIA with smile.
ReplyDeleteWow, Rose - that edger really did make cool shadows!
ReplyDeleteThat thing also looks like a Medieval torture device, does it not?
Good thing teaching kids weed control, takes a village to keep weeds at bay!
Have a wonderful shadow sunday!
Thanks for visiting!
PS
ReplyDeleteCalling them burritos is about the cutest thing I have ever heard, haha.
I'm too paranoid to allow my girl to use something like that without closed-toe footwear.

Even with your simple tools, you put my attempts at lawn care to shame. Fortunately for my neighbours, I have very little lawn to care for. My story this week is called Culmen ’79.
ReplyDeleteNice way of bonding with children.
ReplyDeleteHello.
ReplyDeleteI have to admit, that trimmer looks like something from eons gone by! LOL
It's fun watching the kids having a go, but I'm smiling at the puppy who seems to think it's play. Nice photos. Thanks for sharing.

My kids complain about 'family bonding' which is just another phrase for helping do Chores ♫♪
