kýblík

Kýblík is a Czech diminutive term referring to a small bucket. The word itself is derived from "kýbl," which is the standard Czech word for a bucket. The diminutive suffix "-ík" is commonly used in Czech to denote smallness, affection, or a younger version of something.

Small buckets are versatile and can be used for a variety of purposes, particularly by children. They are often found in toy sets for beach play, where they are used for carrying sand and water. In gardening, a kýblík might be used for collecting small amounts of soil, weeds, or harvested produce. They can also serve as containers for art supplies or small tools.

The material of a kýblík can vary, but they are frequently made of plastic due to its durability, light weight, and ease of cleaning. Metal versions, while less common for children's toys, might be found for more specific tasks. The size of a kýblík is typically much smaller than a standard household bucket, making it easy to handle and transport. The term emphasizes the miniature nature of the object, distinguishing it from larger, more utilitarian buckets.
