This is a fun toy that improves dexterity, focus, and imagination. My 2.5 and 3.5 year old granddaughters love playing with it. The only improvement would be to make the power a little stronger.

I got this for my 2.5 year old as she likes toys that use fine motor skills. This was an excellent choice. She doesn’t care much for the templates, but she loves using the power drill and screwing and unscrewing the bolts and cogs by hand. The quality is good as it doesn’t feel super cheap. I really like that it comes in a box where everything can be stored together.

Fun toy for my toddler. The powered screwdriver is a huge hit! The toy is a little advanced for an 18 mo toddler , the rest of the toy will be great as he ages.

My two and a half year old daughter loves this! Keeps her entertained! Good quality! Wish it had a case for all the stuff but you can reuse the box it comes in or put it in a gallon ziplock bag so everything stays together! 10/10 💓

I purchased this item for one of our granddaughter’s Xmas presents. I’m sure some people might think this toy is only for boys but you would be mistaken - she absolutely loved it! I believe it will be a favorite toy for a long time. For an inexpensive gift this toy is highly recommended- for both boys and girls!

This is a great toy for a young child, my 4 year old daughter loves it the colors are great and the patters are adorable. The best part is you can use it over and over again. The drill is very easy for little hands to use and is great for improving fine motor skills. Highly recommend this toy to boys or girls!

I like that our grandson was thrilled to receive this gift for his 5th birthday, but then, I knew he was going to like it because he plays with my set of Design and Drill everytime he comes to our house for a visit. Now he has his very own set, but it's different from mine so he'll still have an interest in the one we have when he comes to stay over. He wanted to play with it immediately but had other gifts to open, but I know he's going to have lots of fun with it because the set we have occupies him for long periods of time. He is just SO into drilling and using that little toy! LOL So, yes I would definitely purchase this Educational Insights Design and Drill Gears Workshop 55 pieces and would recommend it for any child at all. It's just one of those great toys every child should experience! The only problem would be if there is a younger sibling in the house that likes to put things in their mouth because the little pieces would not be good for that and would definitely need to be kept up and watched carefully by an adult if a small child was anywhere about. Just sayin. But we've been able to manage it for about a little over a year now when they were one and three.

As a parent of a curious and active 2-year-old, finding toys that engage and entertain while also promoting learning is always a win. That's why I'm thrilled to share my thoughts on the Plastic Drill and Gears Set.From the moment we introduced this toy, it became an instant favorite in our household. The colorful design immediately caught my child's attention, and the sturdy construction gave me peace of mind knowing it can withstand the inevitable rough play of a toddler.The plastic drill is easy for little hands to grasp, promoting fine motor skills development. The gears provide endless opportunities for exploration and experimentation, teaching cause and effect as my child discovers how they interact with each other.What I appreciate most about this toy is its versatility. While it's marketed as a drill and gears set, my child has found countless creative ways to play with it, from sorting and stacking the gears to using the drill as a pretend tool during imaginative play sessions.Overall, the Plastic Drill and Gears Set has exceeded my expectations. It's not only provided hours of entertainment for my child but also fostered valuable skills that will benefit them as they continue to grow and learn. I highly recommend this toy to any parent looking for a fun and educational addition to their little one's toy collection.

Dieses großartige Learning Resources Design & Drill Zahnradwerkstatt Set habe ich von Amazon zum Testen erhalten und es wurde sofort meiner jüngsten Enkelin übergeben. Und ich muss sagen, sie ist absolut begeistert davon. Hier ist meine Rezension:Die Zahnradwerkstatt bietet eine einzigartige Möglichkeit, Kinder im Vorschulalter in die Welt des Konstruktions- und Konstruktionsdesigns einzuführen. Mit dem kindgerechten, realistisch funktionierenden, batteriebetriebenen Spielzeugbohrer können die Kleinen farbenfrohe Schrauben und Zahnräder gemäß den beiliegenden Aufgabenkarten verwenden, um faszinierende Gebilde zu erschaffen und sie dann in Bewegung zu setzen. Diese Art des kreativen Spielens regt die Vorstellungskraft der Kinder an und fördert ihr räumliches Denken.Was mir besonders gefällt, ist die Möglichkeit für die Kinder, nicht nur die mitgelieferten Muster nachzubauen, sondern auch ihre eigenen Bilder und Designs zu entwerfen. Das bedeutet, dass sie ihrer Kreativität freien Lauf lassen können, während sie gleichzeitig ihre feinmotorischen Fähigkeiten, Auge-Hand-Koordination und Greifkraft entwickeln. Es ist beeindruckend zu sehen, wie meine Enkelin stolz ihre eigenen Konstruktionen zeigt und mir erklärt, wie sie funktionieren.Die Aktivitätstafel mit Zahnrädern ist tragbar und ermöglicht es den Kindern, ihre eigenen Designs und Muster zu gestalten. Die mitgelieferte wiederverwendbare Verpackung mit praktischem Tragegriff sorgt dafür, dass alle Teile sicher aufbewahrt werden können und leicht transportiert werden können.Insgesamt enthält das Set einen realistisch funktionierenden batteriebetriebenen Spielzeugbohrer, die Aktivitätstafel mit praktischem Tragegriff, einen Schraubendreher, 9 Zahnräder in verschiedenen Größen, 32 farbenfrohe Schrauben und 10 doppelseitige Musterkarten. Es ist wirklich beeindruckend, wie dieses Set spielerisches Lernen fördert und gleichzeitig stundenlangen Spaß bietet.Meine Enkelin ist mit dieser Zahnradwerkstatt überglücklich, und ich kann dieses Set wärmstens empfehlen, wenn Sie nach einem pädagogisch wertvollen und unterhaltsamen Spielzeug für Kinder ab 3 Jahren suchen. Es hat definitiv unsere Erwartungen übertroffen und wird noch viele Stunden kreativen Spielspaß bieten.
