Children’s Flathead Rake

The handle is short enough that my four-year-old can actually hold it with two hands, and the flathead tines pick up grass clippings without him getting frustrated. He's been dragging it around the yard for an hour now.

My daughter actually asks to help rake the leaves now, which I never expected. The flathead really does scoop up grass clippings without them just sliding off like our old plastic one, and the small size means she can manage it herself.

The handle is short enough that my five-year-old can actually grip it, which is why I bought it. The tines are pretty flimsy though, and they bend a bit when he rakes wet leaves, so it's really only good for light stuff.
