My almost 2 year old loves this. He's very into putting things together. However, he does need help screwing the screws in. But once started he can usually finish them.

She started unscrewing the bolts right away. She also enjoyed pulling out the screwdriver. Her occupational therapist thought it was a wonderful toy for kids with delayed fine motor.

My little one love twisting lids on and off. The bolt block has given her a new outlet for this interest. She really enjoys the product. It is well constucted and durable.

I ordered this when I noticed my son had a big interest in both tools and in unscrewing lids, etc. He was very interested in it as soon as we opened the box, and now he likes picking it up from time to time to play with it. It is a well-made, satisfying little toy.

The screwdriver works very well and it seems like a sturdy product, great for my toddler class. Because there are bolts on all sides it can be hard for a toddler to get the thing to stay still, but I think they'll figure it out over time.

Bolt Block was instantly appealing to my 2-1/2 year old grandson and 5-year-old granddaughter. No instructions needed!

It takes a few times for the screws to loosen up and go in and out smoothly, but after that it's fine. The screwdriver is chunky enough for small hands to grip and it doesn't take that many turns to get the bolts screwed in. It is so versatile. It encourages fine motor skills, hand eye coordination, color matching, and dexterity. For my 3 year old, this is a great car toy. Keep his hands and mind occupied for quick car trips.
