My son reallyl ikes it (3 yrs) but his 4 and 5 year old friends like it even more, so it gives him time to grow into it.
Author: Alice Brandfonbrener Rating: 5 out of 5 stars

Engaging and fun for 3 y old boy, stretched his small motor coordination in fun way using both hand and 'motor' tools. 5 y old sister more into design aspects but excellent for both, without a tussle!

I sent this to my grandson in California, I live in Minnesota, my daughter said that he really likes it and she is working with him on colors and shapes. I think it will be a good tool for him to learn these things.

This toy is the best - it may even be my favorite toy in the toy box. It is so much fun, the kids don't realize it's educational. Highly recommended!

I sent this as a gift to my little nephew. His dad reports that the toy drill is a huge success. I don't know much else about it, but haven't heard any complaints.

The Design & Drill Activity was a huge hit with my 3 year old grandson. Not only does he love it, his 5 yr old and 8 yr old sisters are having just as much fun! I had to buy a second one for my other grandson. Thanks Mindware!

We purchased this for our son's 5th birthday. He has enjoyed playing with it some, however, it is his 3 yo and 6 yo brothers who have played with it the most. My 3 yo has not really been able to follow the pattern pages provided, but made his own patterns and designs that we are supposed to 'guess' what he made. My 6 yo has had tons of fun making the designs from the cards. He has also enjoyed using the other tools besides the drill. The age ranges on this product are ideal.

Very time consuming and productive. loves the tools even if he is not playing with all the pieces together.

Great toy. Keeps the four year old grandson occupied for more than two minutes. He loves it and therefore so do the adults.
Author: Mandie Rating: 5 out of 5 stars

This wonderful for my 3 year old son who is working on his colors. My 5 year old daughter loves putting together the patterns with her dad.
Author: Beth Bianchi Rating: 5 out of 5 stars

Big hit! My 3 year-old grandson spent all Christmas day 'dwilling.' Perfect for the age, and the pattern sheets gives him room to grow.
Author: Donna Sharp Rating: 5 out of 5 stars

My granddaughter absolutely love the drill. She opened up the package and yelled OH just what I wanted.

My four year old son loves this 'building game' It kept him busy for a long time. Great Product!
Author: Jennifer Rating: 5 out of 5 stars

I bought this for my 2-yr. old and he is having a blast with it. It is well constructed and durable, and the pieces are not too small for him. His big sisters use the pattern cards to make designs, but for him - he LOVES the battery powered drill and it entertains him for hours.

My grandson loved this gift-so did my granddaughter (ages 6 and 4 respectively).

My 3 year old absolutely loves this drill and mini workshop. She is becoming an expert at the patterns and loves just using the drill for the fun of it! I am recommending it to all her friends and her preschool!
Author: Cari Rating: 5 out of 5 stars

My 5year old loves this! It's great for following patterns and also for creativity. I would say that it's not appropriate for a 3-year old...my other son will be 3 in six weeks and it's definetly not something that he could handle. The age range probably should be 4-6.
Author: Noelle Rating: 5 out of 5 stars

My two and a half year old got this from Santa and it is his favorite thing. He can work it with no trouble, and does n't seem to get bored at all.

The Design and Drill Activity kit was a great gift for my grandson. It kept his attention for hours.
Author: Ann Rating: 5 out of 5 stars

I bought 3 of these for 6yr. old girl, and boys 5 and 4. They all enjoyed them. Sometimes they used the patterns and sometimes made their own. Drill seems like it will hold up for a long time as long as that little screw doesn't strip! Can't go wrong with this one.
Author: Larissa Rating: 5 out of 5 stars

Excellent toy! My boys love this toy. They will sit for 30 minutes playing with this. I love that there are so many different teaching possibilities; ie... colors, counting, shapes, forward, backwards, in verses out...... Every day we focus on something different so it's new and exciting each time we play. This is one of the favorite toys in our home.

my future engineer is really working hard at organizing his bolts and loves the drill! As always you have the best toys.
Author: Michele Stellone Rating: 5 out of 5 stars

I purchased this for my son,age 2. It was his favorite xmas present. He can easily use the battery powered drill and and loves that it really works (isn't just pretend like other tool kits). Right now he doesn't understand the color/design cards or the wrench, but it gives more ways to play with it as he gets older.
Author: Heather Daines Rating: 5 out of 5 stars

My 3 year old son is in love with this. He plays with this for hours at a time. His friends and cousins have also loved using it when they come to play. GREAT ACTIVITY!

Author: LaDawn LeGrande Rating: 5 out of 5 stars

I bought this for my 3 year old grandson but his 8 year old brother loves it too! They both stayed busy for hours drilling in bolts and taking them out again. I also like the fact that it has manual tools so that if the drill ever breaks, they can still play with it.

This drill was purchased as a birthday gift for a 4 yr. old boy. His 3 year old sister wanted to play too, then came along the nine year old boy. They all played with it differently. Enjoying putting screws in and then unscrewing them. Good for small finger dexterity, making designs. Learning righty tighty, lefty lucy. A big hit!
Author: Adrienne Kaufmann Rating: 5 out of 5 stars

I am a pre-k teacher and have used this toy in my classroom for the past 5 years. This toy can be enjoyed on many differendt levels. It is wonderful for developing fine motor skills and of course the drill is very popular! I have seen children follow the colorful pattern cards and some children create designs of their own!
Author: Linda Pannell Rating: 5 out of 5 stars

My four-year-old grandson was intrigued with this toy. He worked on it for an hour in the midst of all the Christmas Day commotion. I recommended this toy to a friend for her grandson and ordered an additional one for her. It is nice to find a toy that spurs a child's creativity.
Author: Judy R Rating: 5 out of 5 stars

Author: Helen Arnold Rating: 5 out of 5 stars

Our 4 year old loves this, although he tends to just make up his own patterns rather then follow the design cards. His 6 year old brother enjoys it too and he does follow the suggested patterns. It keeps them busy and happy for a long time!

My 4 year old received this for Christmas last year. He loves it and so do his older brother and sister. It is well built and a lot of fun!

It seems a bit pricy but it is well worth the money. Our 5 year old's engineering
ability is encouraged. Our 3 year old is entertained but I can see him exploring ideas with color & patterns. Be sure to have batteries ready.

Author: Lisa Shephard Rating: 5 out of 5 stars

I have a 2 1/2 year old boy who loves this. He's not quite interested in the designs yet but he really thinks he's manly with the tools and the drill especially. It's a wonderful toy!
Author: Patrick Rating: 5 out of 5 stars

I bought the Design and Drill for my three year old since he enjoys tools. He loves using the screws and changes the drill bits. He needs help using the cards, which we call 'plans' but the toy is still new. The plans teach colors, patterns and counting.

Author: Elaine Paul Rating: 3 out of 5 stars

The concept is excellent for applying eye/hand coordination; however, the drill construction was of poor quality. It was hard to open drill to put battery inside and material quality was poor.
Author: Susan Rating: 5 out of 5 stars

This product was purchased as a Christmas present for my four year old grandson. As a teacher of young children, I was delighted to see all the positive learning that accompanied the 'play'. He was reinforcing color, numbers, patterns, counting, spatial awareness, and just plain fun. He worked at it with great enthusiasm and even had help from his seven year old brother, who participated eagerly. Great fun and lots of learning as well.

Author: Jennifer Weston Rating: 5 out of 5 stars

My 3 year old played with this toy more than any other on Christmas morning. He has spent over 30 minutes on numerous occasions drilling and filling the entire board with screws. Any toy that can keep the attention of a 3 year old for over 30 minutes is a winner with me! Thanks for having such great products.

Author: Sondra White Rating: 5 out of 5 stars

My 11-year-old son has Down syndrome. Usually with toys like this he might play with it once and then decides to throw small parts around his room. Not this one. It's a hit! He learned to follow the patterns on the cards by himself and spends HOURS with is. AMAZING. Thank you. He LOVES tools so I hit the jackpot on this one.
Author: Jill Rating: 5 out of 5 stars

This toy was the hit of Christmas. When my 2.5 year old daughter opened it, we had a pause in the presents for about 30 minutes so she could play with it. All of our holiday company was interested too! Very well made toy. Worth the money.

Bought this for my 6 year old son. He is enjoying the toy very much. He likes using the tools (especially the electric drill) to attach the plastic bolts to the board. Creating the various designs however remains secondary to him compared to the pure pleasure he gets from using the tools. I highly recommend this toy for both boys and girls.

Author: Erin Rating: 5 out of 5 stars

I purchased the activity center for my 4-year old daughter who has a short attention span. The toy is a very cool concept and well made; however, I have to stay with her so that she sticks with it. After making a picture, I recommend taking the pegs out of the board before putting it up. Otherwise the child's enthusiasm to use the toy will be spent on taking the pegs out instead of making a picture.
