Fun, educational and easy to put away!
My 2.5 year old absolutely loves this! The drill was super easy to setup and get her playing. I love that along with fine motor skills, this toy allows her to practice her colors, hand eye coordination and creativity. Her favorite thing is to make letters with the screws. Pro-tip: don't press hard at all while drilling or it won't work as well.

I WOULD NOT BUY THIS AGAIN DUE TO QUALITY
WE BOUGHT THIS FOR OUR 3 YEAR OLD SON AND HE LOVES IT BUT THE DRILL CLICKS A LOT AND YOU HAVE TO HOLD THE DRILL JUST RIGHT TO MAKE IT WORK. I AM DISAPPOINTED BECAUSE HE GETS FRUSTRATED.

Fun toy, short battery life
My son is 3 and enjoys playing with this. Only thing is batteries die quickly.

Don't waste your money
This was a present for my 4 yr old grandson. He loved it for about two hours before the drill quit operating. What a disappointment. The gear mechanism froze and completely stopped. Definitely not the batteries.

Great for independent play
Love this drill & design set! My 4 yr old was able to use it independently to drill and loosen the screws, and my 5 yr old enjoys following the patterns provided in the book. I love that it all fits in the carrying case for easy storage!

Amazing!!
My daughter who is 6 just loves this kit. She loves that they gave designs to make with the bolts and drill. She has played with it over and over again and has also started doing her own art bolt designs

Fixer Upper!
Educational Insights Design & Drill Bolt-It Bucket has been fun for 3 year old daughter!! When it came in the mail she could not wait to play with it!! My 7 year old son also gave it a go, but that didnt last long. My daughter had a great time with this toy the first few days, but then unfortunately grew a little bored of it. Also the "drill bit" constantly falls out an...

This product is great
We bought this product on the first day of the month-long quarantine. We were looking for something that would keep our 3 year old occupied while I worked from home and my old child continued her schooling online. Let me start with my own favorite part of this product which is the carrying case. All pieces of this toy (screws, drill, and drill bit) all store neatly in t...

My child can't put it down
Since receiving this toy my child has not put it down. When we first received it it was a little hard for my daughter to drill the screws but now she's an expert. My older kids also love it.

Cool learning toy!
I received this item for free in exchange for an honest review. I have two girls, ages 5 and 12. The 12 year old was not as interested in it, but did enjoy helping the youngest create patterns and pictures with the colored bolts. I wish it had a little more power to it, because they got bored fast and I wish it had a bigger book of ideas. I think all around it is a cool...

Great toy!
We love this toy! My 2 year old will spend forever playing with it. My older kids love to make designs on top with it. I wish the screw driver had a little more power, it's a little wimpy.

Packaging sold me
Even though this is considered a "boy" toy it didn't stop my girly daughter from playing with it! In fact she loves the drill and putting in the screws and taking it out one by one- esp since it Mimics her dads drill. We actually have an older version that came in a box but over time that box got beaten and it was so hard to store without things falling out so when i sa...

3 year old loves it.
My 3 year old son and 5 year old daughter both love this toy! As soon as we put batteries in they were drilling the screws in and laughing. My 3 year old isn't as into the designs as my daughter, so the combination is really great for both of them. It keeps them busy while working on fine motor skills, colors, and sharing. It's a great interactive toy.

Interactive fun!
This is a great hands-on toy! The kids loved drilling the bolts with the electronic drill. You can remove the bolts with the drill by changing the direction. I think it would be helpful to have the remove and insert labeled on the drill itself, but with some help it was fine. The manual has different images that the kids can create and they liked that there were differe...

Perfect for my kid who loves watching dad work with tools!!
My son already has a tool set at home, but he especially loves the "power drill!" He gets to pretend he's building something like mom or dad. I like the bonus challenge of following design patterns. We can work on numbers, colors, steps, etc. I love that all the bolts just go into the easy open/close bucket for easy and convenient cleanup!! Great for taking outside on a...

Safe & Fun Drill
I have a 4 year old girl and 2 year old boy, who both love to help daddy with home projects, so this is the hot new toy in my home. They drill the screws down. Then they switch the button on the back of the drill and drill them back up. After the first run they have began drilling them down in patterns, or making numbers, the possibilities are really endless with all t...

This is a GREAT toy!
I have a 5-year old, a 3-year old, and a 1-year old and they ALL get something out of this toy! The 5-year old loves to make the pictures from the booklet with the different colored screws, the 3-year old loves to put a screw in every single spot and take them out again with the drill, and the 1-year old loves putting the screws away in the bucket. I love that this toy ...

Interactive, great for entertaining toddlers
It is a very entertaining educational toy that my daughter enjoyed. Not only she learns about colors, she also learned how to figure things out. She had fun playing with it, and i like that its easy to put away when she is not playing with it.

Awesome toy
This is a great little toy. It helps young kids with their motor skills while being fun. The bolt fit in the drill and the drill will go one way to screw it in and then back the other way to unscrew it. It also comes with some patterns to make things with the screws.

Not That Great
We wanted to love this as our kids love having their own tools this toy is self contained and the drill shows the gears moving as it spins. Unfortunately the drill bit is not attached to the drill and ours was not included when the package arrived. The drill cannot be used without the drill bit. We have another toy drill that worked on the bolts (that drill bit didn't f...
