Okay, first of all the tool bag is amazing!! Like, you could use it for real tools amazing! It is very good quality and very roomy. I was initially not that impressed by the tools or the “wood” because they looked cheap and fake, but they actually work really well with the screws, nails, and wood. They pound in just like real nails and screw in like real screws. Perfect for my three year old. It ended up being a good thing that the tools were lightweight because he of course hit his thumbs few times. He had the time of his life nailing these together! I wish they had real instructions for things to build. They included some basic drawings but we tried to follow them and it was super hard to follow and didn’t work that well. That is the only thing I’d improve though (well and maybe coloring the wood to look more real) but overall very impressed. I would buy this again in a heartbeat.

I got this set for my son's 8th birthday. The tools are all plastic but do the job. The "wood" is a really cool addition to the set. My son really likes to just hammer in the nails and screw in the screws rather than make the models but eventually we will get there. It is also a really good Occupational Therapy session to work on that fine motor movement. My son has Trisomy 21 so anyway that I can make him think he is playing when he really is doing therapy is as score for me. THe customer service of this company is also 5 stars!!! One of the tools broke the first day my kids were playing with it and I contacted the company via email to get a replacement. They responded within the hour-replaced the tool no charge-and also sent extra "wood" that i requested at no shipping cost to me! They had great followup to see that i recieved the replacements and were great to work with! Highly recommend this tool set!!

Normally, I'll wait for awhile to write the review in order to provide better perspective. For this, I'll go back an adjust the rating as needed. However, I have time now (dont we all) and this had quite an impression on me."Let Daddy figure out how to make something""I'm going to make a house Daddy. Look I have 5 roofs" (He's 3. He had 5 pieces of foam, laying on floor, unattached)That went on for awhile, as I kept mumbling "Why did I get this - these projects are ridiculous. Whose going to try to cut all those angles for the Tank.", and similar gripes."Let me help you Daddy. I love making pencil holders""No, I need to just figure this out first, please. Not now""Can I help?" By now I had put in my first screw.. Long story short. He helped and although it called for screws (well, I'm not sure because the diagram is non-specific on the parts used), my son drove his first nail. Sometime in the anxious moments of criticizing myself for this "lousy" choice, it was occurring to me that for this 3 year old - who rattled off a dozen things he was building - it was pretty awesome. Next time we play, Dad is going to grow up and realize this is his gift, not mine.

I'll start by saying I'm sure this kit is good for someone out there. My son found this himself and I should've scrutinized the info more. My 5 year old wanted "real tools" and specified NOT plastic. He was pretty disappointed. "Wood" is foam. Bag is nice.

My grandson is delighted with this Christmas gift. He made a number of the toys right away. Luckily I bought and received the extra box of materials with my original order. Currently the extras are unavailable due to popular demand. This is a creative scientific gift with good plastic tools, nails, nuts, and bolts and foamboard for the "wood". I recommend it. I'll be sending my grandson refills for the materials ASAP.

This was exactly what I was looking for. My 5-year-old daughter always wants to build things, based on her own ideas. So we needed an open-ended play set. This is perfect - the tools are just right (not too babyish, but not adult tools), I don't have to worry about her accidentally hurting or cutting herself, and they work great on the foam "wood". The tool bag is such a nice bonus, it's great quality and keeps everything together. It's also great for her to learn about nails vs screws, and how hinges work. I'm sure we'll be getting the foam refill set. However, we can also easily take apart her creations (if she wants) and reuse foam pieces/nails/screws etc. It was fun to do together, from drawing out a "plan" of what we were going to build, then showing her the basics of measuring things, or making sure all 4 "wheels" were the same thickness, etc... lots to learn here while having fun. Great gift for the little builder in your life!

The only thing good about this purchase was the tool bag it came with.The plastic toys are very poorly made. Dollar store quality.The measuring tape broke with its first use and the pliers came broken.For the money it cost to purchase this I am very unhappy.I really like the idea of this and my daughter enjoyed building with the styrofoam and plastic nails but it isn’t worth $40.

Great gift just gave it to my son as well as one of his friends both who just turned three. The other mom already made a comment and I will tell you my son loves this thing the only thing I would suggest to the company is to make the bag a different color or make the tools not black and red but a significantly different color because it’s hard to see the nails and stuff in a black bag

Good
