Toy Vacuum that actually works

Does one exist!? Obviously I’m not expecting it to be able to vacuum properly, but I’d like it to actually be able to pick up crumbs / dried play dough, so that my toddler can see it’s working and it’s mildly useful to me… any recommendations gratefully received x

The Henry Hoover one has mild suction. Could manage small crumbs but not play dough I don’t think.

We have the toy Henry, it works ok when the batteries are fresh, but it takes the large round batteries and they don't exactly drain but also don't last ages. I wince when the kids turn it on just for the noise 😅
It's still good fun and worked at getting our kids engaged as we have the same style big Henry.

The Cardon (IIRC) upright Dyson toy also picks up crumbs and small bits of dirt. I'm also not sure if it would do play dough.

Hand held rechargeable car vacuum. Some vacuum and light up. Also convert to mini leaf blower.
