Design & Drill Activity Center powers up their imaginations and builds coordination and creative thinking skills as they drill chunky, child-sized components into a sturdy activity board. Children love following the colorful activity cards to create pictures and patterns - from trains and boats to flowers and fish. Young builders can drill their very own designs. Simply snap any one of the drill bits into the power drill or the screwdriver handle, grab a handful of bolts and turn on the learning fun. Pieces include chunky plastic bolts, a reversible power drill, a screwdriver, three drill bits and a combination wrench for tiny hands. It requires three AA batteries (sold separately). Built child-tough, this durable center is recommended for children ages 3 to 6.

We already own a design & drill set so I knew my kids would love this activity center and I was right! My girls who are 4.5 years old and 2.5 years old loved creating different designs and I loved seeing them take turns using the power drill and screwdriver. This set comes with 20 activity cards so my 4.5 year old enjoyed picking an activity card and creating it on the board. I love this is helping both of them to work on their fine motor skills and it is also teaching them to share, count, practice their colors and be creative! All the pieces are durable and high quality and even when my 2.5 year old is a little rough with it, it still works perfectly! This is the perfect indoor toy and I love that it can be played with by both of my kids in different ways. Also it ...

This is an excellent toy for budding engineer.I was a little skeptical of getting this drill kit for my daughter. But now I can't pry her away from this toy! She is learning her colors and counting with the colored screws. I have not shown her the electric drill, because I wanted her to work with her hands instead. So she has been manually screwing each bolt onto the board. This way, she is practicing her hand-eye coordination too. The screws and screwdriver are big enough in size that she can work with them easily, and not causing her any frustration. Each time she plays with this toy, it occupies her a good hour or so. Her normal attention span with toys is, on average, 5 minutes. So I am very pleased with this product.We have not moved onto copying the pattern ...

I tried to get her to do it, but she is more interested in filling up the board with her choice of screws at this point. The inability to work with the activity cards is due to her impatience, not the card designs. Because the first few cards/designs are quite simple - one row of blue, one blank row, then one row of red, one row of blank, etc. They should be very simple to follow. I can see my daughter learning pattern with this product as well.This is a great product!

I like the outward appearance of the Educational Insights Design and Drill Activity Center. The box that held the pieces seems durable enough to hold the pieces within it. The weight of the box was a little heavier than I anticipated but not bad. I would not feel comfortable letting my child carry the box at this time. My child likes the colors of the bolts and the fact that there were so many to play with. I would have liked for the power drill to be a little bit larger bot my child did not have any trouble handling the drill. I also like the fact that the center came with additional tools. It would have been nice if there were a couple more tools in the box like a hammer and a saw to complete the set. This would have been nice but it was not necessary as the ...

This would have been nice but it was not necessary as the center itself was sufficient. I like the fact that an activity board was included but I believe it would have been a good idea to have multiple boards within the box. Overall my child is enjoying the center and it is currently keeping their attention for a couple of hours thus far.

My 3 year old grandson loves it! Once we got the batteries in the drill he went straight to work. He played with it nonstop for over an hour. There are many holes to put the screws in and so therefore the project can tie them up for quite awhile. Then they get to unscrew and take them out! Plus there are around 20 pattern cards so they can create different designs on the card. My grandson is rarely held captive by a toy for more than 10 minutes at a time and I was so pleasantly surprised to see how much he likes it. His little two year old sister would love to get her hands on it, but he doesn’t want anything to do with sharing this toy yet. He started playing with it right away and really focused on the patterns and how to copy them. It is a time consuming ... MoreMy 3 year old grandson loves it!

He started playing with it right away and really focused on the patterns and how to copy them. It is a time consuming activity. After The Design & Drill was opened, and since then, he carries it around and loves that he can complete different designs and uses the screw driver on his own just like daddy. After I gave my 3 year old Grandson this Drill, he sat and played with it even though he had other presents. He was even reluctant to go open other presents because he wanted to play with this.The pattern cards that are included are an excellent learning tool in my opinion. It is good for hand/eye coordination and following directions.
This toy is for my house when the grandchildren come to play. They found it interesting and played with it for a good while. The kit comes with tons of different colored bolts to screw into a plastic grid with holes. The box is sturdy enough to replace all the parts for storage.However, it does not come with batteries and 3 AAA are needed. Also, you will need a tool to open the drill to install them.The three-year-old had to be shown how to hold the drill upright to make it work properly, so she is learning dexterity. She enjoyed just randomly screwing in bolts and listening to the sound the drill makes!The six-year old is very orderly. She spent a great deal of time duplicating the designs on the supplied cards -- a tree or a flower. She concentrated on it even ... MoreThis toy is for my house when the grandchildren come to play.

I think in the future she will probably attempt her own designs.The kit comes with different "bits" for the drill and a hand-held screw driver. The drill IS REVERSIBLE, so it can be used to take out the bolts and begin again. But this is not as much fun, so mom and dad will probably be doing this a lot!Still, this is good fun for one child (not more) and can be enjoyed even if the drill has no batteries... just not as much.
The Educational Insights Design and Drill Activity Center is great!! There are so many reasons why I love this learning toy for our almost three year old DAUGHTER. Yes, that's right!! Tools are for boys and girls. Our daughter loves this just as much as we hoped she would. Everyday she sits and plays with this toy and hasn't gotten bored with it. It seems to be well made and will hold up well in our household/toyroom. There are so many features that help with teaching and learning. The colors of the pieces are all the primary colors and the drill accessory teaches motor-skills as well. Kids get to take advantage of using eye-to-hand coordination and learning while they just feel like they are playing and having fun. What makes this great is it will grow with our ...

Kids get to take advantage of using eye-to-hand coordination and learning while they just feel like they are playing and having fun. What makes this great is it will grow with our little one. For now, she uses it without the color cards and just practices drilling the colored pieces. But later as she gets better with it, we will introduce the color cards to give her a bit of a challenge. Learning colors, hand-eye coordination, learning how to count pieces, and learning patterns are just some of the features this toy can be used for. I would say this would be great not only for at home but could also be used in preschool, daycare, homeschool, or other learning settings as well. We love it and would definitely recommend it to our family and friends.
This was a complete surprise how much we enjoyed this set. I didn't think much when I picked this item thought it might be boring for my 3 year old. Especially when I looked at the packaging of the box, the box I received only has a little boy on it and I thought oh my little girl is going to think this is just for boys. Luckily she didn't pay much attention to it once I placed the batteries inside the drill. She went directly to the drill board and within 30 minutes had all 100 holes with drills nails in them. Getting a toddler to sit and play with any toy for that long is usually unthinkable but it kept her interested. I thought it was a fluke so we put it away and the next day I pulled it out and the exact same thing happen, and she not only was interested in the ...

Besides the drill it comes with different drill bits that you can interchange with the drill or there is a little hand held tool that can act as a screwdriver and there is also a wrench. This also comes with patterned cards that can be used to help kids use both there motor skills and learn about patterns.
If you want your child to learn, and have fun with, counting, colors, shapes, learning a skill, and using their imagination, the easy to use Design & Drill Power Tool Workshop is the toy you want. Your little one from age 3 and up, can use the power drill, with three bits, a wrench, and screwdriver. They will have so much fun making their own designs, with the large plastic nuts and bolts of bright colors of orange, green, blue and red. There are designs and shapes in those bright colors also. They can make their own design, or do numbers or letters. If they want, there is a book with designs they can follow too. The workshop comes with a plastic pegboard, where they screw in the bolts, designs, and shapes. If your child follows the book designs, which are very easy ...

The workshop comes with a plastic pegboard, where they screw in the bolts, designs, and shapes. If your child follows the book designs, which are very easy to see, it will teach them to follow a design, by counting over to the hole as to where to place the first bolt, design, or shape, with the color specified. They then need to follow the directions until the design is complete. They could even fill in each hole to fill up the whole pegboard. Their imagination can make so many different things. The drill is powered by 3 AAA batteries, that do not come with it, so make sure you purchase some if you don't all ready have them. Everything is made of durable plastic, so the child is safe. There are three different bits that fit the drill. There is a screw driver, and wrench too. Everything fits nicely into a carrying case. If you buy this for your child, I will guarantee you that the adults will play with it also. How I know that, we did, and it was a lot of fun.
I received the Educational Insights Design and Drill Activity Center free for the purpose of a non biased review. When I recieved the Activity Center my first thought was that it was much smaller than I thought it was going to be. It was also heavy. After opening the box, I realized the weight was because there was so MUCH in the box! I am VERY impressed with this toy. It comes with an activity board that is about 12" x 12", a nice size drill, 2 drill bits, a socket, a heavy duty double sided wrench, a handle to turn the drill bits into screwdrivers, 120 bolts in 5 different colors, and 10 double sided activity cards.Every piece is heavy duty. The cards are covered in a shiny plastic that makes for easy clean up if there are any accidental spills or smears.:) ...

The table is very sturdy and has small foam feet to prevent scratches on your tables! I love that there are several bits and a handle to manually turn the bolts. If you run out of batteries, the Center is still usable. The bolts are a great size for small hands.This toy is awesome for any child who loves to help work on things! My 6yo son absolutely loves this toy. It would also be a great activity center in a school setting. Manipulating the pieces, choosing colors, following the cards are all great learning skills. Teaching colors, counting, following directions are all skills that can be learned with this Center.I absolutely recommend the Design and Drill Activity Center!
The Design and Drill Activity Center is marked for children age 3 and up. I would suggest using it under supervision with a child under the age of 4 due to the many smaller pieces it contains. It is a very constructive curve on the Lite Brites many of us had as children as far as the premise of creating designs with multiple colors by using pattern templates. With Design and Drill you receive:-20 activity cards showing patterns to create a boat, dog, flag and fish as well as other colorful shapes and designs. There are even blank cards so you can create your own design like we did in the picture. The cards are very sturdy being made from a heavy cardboard stock paper with a slick coating to resist wear and staining. Cards are re-usable.-120 plastic bolts in ...

The drill has a forward and a reverse setting.-3 Drill bits so they can choose which shape tool they want to work with in each picture. It operates on 3 AA batteries. (batteries are not included)-1 Wrench kids can use to manually tighten the bolts when they choose or should the batteries in the drill go dead.-1 Activity bench. It is a bright colored plastic table with holes that the bolts are screwed into. It is sturdy and easily wipes clean with a wet rag.This toy will be great for many hours of fun. It is great for working with colors, patterns, shapes, following visual instructions, and perfecting tedious eye/hand coordination skills.
