We received a childs ‘Funbrella’ umbrella from http://www.fultonumbrellas.com/
It was a clear one with black rim. Unfortunately we have had no rain to properly test this out yet.

The umbrella is very well made with a thick transparent canopy making it brilliant for children to see through when it’s raining. This one had a black rim although there are other colours available.

I particularly liked the fact that the bit you push up to get the umbrella up glides up easily and goes up in place without a catch, like with a pressure fitting. It also comes down slowly just by a pull no fiddly catches saving my daughters hands from being trapped, which makes me cringe with normal umbrellas.

As the umbrella is dome shaped its even better because it means less clothing on her body will get wet as it seems other umbrella keep her head dry and that is about it.

This looks and feels like it will last a long time and less changes that it will blow inside out due to the dome shape.

Definitely well worth the price of £10.00
