Melissa & Doug Take-Along Tool Kit Wooden Construction and Building Set (24 pcs) Pretend Play Toy for Kids Age 3+

My grandson loves this - especially the hammer😂! I've had to hide it to save the doors and glass in my kitchen door!! He now plays with the hammer under supervision. This is a great toy, not only for the younger ones but as they grow they can make shapes and structures learning how to use tools as they go. I can see this being used for many years to come. A little pricy but worth it for the quality of the product. Vibrant colours that attract their attention and the colour does not come off or fade. Would recommend.

Although there are not many pieces (e.g. only 2 'nails'), we have found that our toddler (19 months when bought it and now nearly 23 months) has played with this EVERY day since we got it for him. He loves the tools and has found different ways of playing with the various components. He couldn't screw the bolts into the 'nuts' to start with but has now mastered the 'turning' involved...he loves the size of the box and that he can load it up and carry it around the house. The tools have not broken even though they have been sorely tested! We will be getting him extra parts when he is old enough to actually try to make something. A good quality toy with good potential for free play. Very pleased.

Very good

A little pricey but much loved by grandson

a nice quality toy

This is wooden role play and dexterity toy is delightful. The wooden toolbox is the perfect storage medium for the rest of the pieces, and the set comes simply shrink-wrapped with a Melissa and Doug paper label. The set is well-made, with robust and safe wooden pieces that have been well-finished. My little nephew loves his wooden toys, and this is a great addition to his collection. The set includes little wooden nuts and bolts that can be connected through the sides of the caddy, as well as tools for tightening, banging, and sawing. I really like that the set features a mix of lightly varnished pieces that retain a real wooden appearance, and child-friendly brightly coloured ones. I picked this up on sale at £7.50 (and regret not picking up another couple to use as presents) but the quality and size of the set does justify the RRP.

Great wooden toy

Very sturdy. Good quality. Colourful. Helps with hand eye coordination with the nuts and bolts in the set. My toddler loves it

Excellent quality, vibrant colors and met my expections. Was exactly same as shown in website and its very intriguing for young minds. Although my daughter is only 18 mnths bt still she ws excited to see the packing , hammer and yes the most favourite screw driver which she just cant let go off.

Well, my little one likes to hammer down those wedges :). The tools look durable and of good quality. Didn't observe anything negative about it.

Çok iyi

3歳の孫にプレゼントです。 凄く喜んでくれて毎日 保育園から帰ってくると遊んでくれてるとのこと 購入して良かったです。

I bought this for my son who is a month shy of 2 and enjoys Bob the Builder and my tools. Even though he is not the recommended age, I thought he might begin investigating it, trying it out if it was around. The more he plays with it, the better he gets at learning to use the tools. He has loads of fun with daddy (or me) while they screw together the plates & hammer in the pegs. My son is thrilled that he has his own tools, so he now leaves mine alone. This is a wooden toy that will swell or shrink with humidity, so there are some days getting the pegs out is just a bit stickier, but in general we have no problem with the set. Because we play with him with this toy, he is supervised, but I can see how a child might get injured. My son goes from toy to toy every 10-15 mins, so I don't expect him to be captivated by anything for very long (kids aren't at this age), but he does play with this a bit longer than others. It challenges him to experiment. I like the old time toolkit design and that all the pieces fit inside. Keep in mind your child's personality, temperment, play style - supervised vs. unsupervised, patient or easily frustrated - and the likes of the child. My son, for the moment, enjoys this toolkit. I have bought a few toys I was certain he'd love, but he hasn't touched them since they day they came home (that doesn't mean the toys are defective, they just don't interest my son) - this one's a keeper. **Update a few years on, he's outgrown the toy but it served us very well indeed. The set held together through 4 years of play and provided much enjoyment and pretend building. He now has an erector set that provides for and encourages both designed objects (car, robot, ferris wheel...) and free form creative designing and building.
