Great toy!
My child received the space ship as a 3rd birthday present. She was so enamored that she wanted to spend a gift card on the car. She was able to put it together herself with the large schematic in the box. The drill is obviously the coolest part;)

Cute race car to work on on construction & fine motor skills
This is such an adorable set! We love design & drill sets especially the bolt buddies and we already own the truck and rocket ship. My kids (ages 4 & 5.5) had so much fun putting this race car together! I love that they are working on their fine motor skills and also learning how to do simple construction and engineering. The little driver and monkey is absolutely adorable and I love how the monkey is also a wrench. This would be a cute gift for any preschooler or kindergartener. It is definitely a fun way for kids to have fun playing while learning as well.

Love it
My little dude loves his Bolt Buddy. After going through it once together, he insisted on doing it himself for round 2 and actually picked it up pretty quickly. He loves tightening the bolts on his "rocket ship", and his concentration face is adorable you guys. It's been a good way during our endless hours of quality family time to get him away from the iPad and learn something valuable. He's my new helper around the house when the tools come out.

Challenging and Fun
This is a really cool toy! My daughter was SO proud of herself for putting this race car together, and really enjoyed playing with what she made after. She is 3 1/2 and for her this toy was challenging without being too difficult. She was getting a little frustrated over the drill bit continually falling out. If this piece fit better I would have given 5 stars!

Fun Idea! Too complex for my little tyke
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] It is a really cool concept that I really wanted to enjoy. Unfortunately the pieces were hard for my little one to keep track of. She's four(almost five) and struggled with some of her fine motor skills. This just wasn't a good fit for her. Super cute though.

Great toy!
My kids loves the design and drill toy! Now that we are home all the time this toy came at the perfect time. You can build and unbuild again. My kids love the kid friendly power drill and make sure you have 3 triple A batteries. I would highly recommend this for ages 3-6!

My five year old loves this! The home is his racetrack!
My five year old son loves fixing up the car. There are so many parts to play with which has kept him entertained for hours. First, he plays mechanic, drilling in the wheels. Then spends time with the figurines and finally starts racing all over the house. Very cute that the box it comes in doubles as a race track and crowd.

Great educational toy for kids
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This product is well made and easy to use. I bought this for my son to teach him the basics of putting things together. My son loved it and has a great time playing with the toy after he assembles it.
