Educational Insights Design and Drill Activity Center

This play set is wonderful!It is easy to use and entertaining for preschool to early school age children.While kids are having fun playing, they are improving their fine motor skills and patterning.They can be creative with their own designs or learn to follow one of the included pattern cards.The set includes 3 bits for use with the drill or screwdriver handle and 5 different colored large screws.The drill has forward, off, and reverse settings and makes drill sounds at a reasonable volume.Overall a great buy.

Love this toy, probably the best of the year.It is well made and sturdy.The drill fascinates my 4 year old, and even the 8 yr old and 11 yr old enjoy matching the pattern cards (and they are all girls...).A toy my children will play with for at least 30 mins straight(quite a feat in the video age!!!)If you are considering it, try it...I would bet that you will be impressed.

I bought this toy for my 5-year-old.He has autism and loves tool type of toys.As soon as we opened this he got a HUGE grin on his face.Totally a hit with him!

My 3-year-old daughter was DYING for a turn, and she loves to use it as well.Surprisingly, even my 19-month-old daughter can join in with her older siblings...she puts the pegs into the holes for them.

It's great for their fine motor skills...getting the drill bit in the right spot is a little tricky for small hands.There are also hand tools which are good practice for the little ones, too.I also use it to practice turn-taking with the 3 and 5 year olds...each gets to drill a certain number of pegs and then has to trade the drill with their sibling.

And it is FUN!My kids like just filling up the whole board, but I think after we've had it for awhile (it's only been 2 weeks) we can start using some of the patterns.Great idea to extend the life of the toy.

This toy seems really durable, has lots of play options (pattern or freestyle, different drill bits, power tool or hand tool), is educational AND fun.And rarely do I find a toy that all three of my kids can sit around at the same time and play with...but they do with this one!Highly recommended!

UPDATE 9/11:

We have had this toy for three years and it is STILL one of the most popular toys in our house.My kids are now 7, 6, and 4, and all will still play with this one.I do rotate it so they don't see it for a couple months and then when it comes back out they are all fighting over who gets it next.One thing I find interesting is that none of them have ever been interested in making the pictures...they just love to use the drill and get those pegs in!

We bought the design and drill activity center for my son's 3rd birthday.We also bought a Take-A-Part Airplane.The drills with the attachments can work on either toy, so we now have 2 drills for the design and drill center.Since we have 2 drills, we bring this out for playdates and it is always a hit. Boys and girls ages 2-6 have enjoyed it.I find that the kids like to drill in a lot more than they like to remove screws, so I end up having to remove them myself so that the toy gets played with, but that's a small price to pay for the 20 minutes or so of concentration this provides.

So far, no one has wanted to replicate the pictures they just make up their own patterns.
