I own and operate a family daycare. I purchased this item among others. I let the children discover these "nuts and bolts" on their own. I was facinated because they all called them "people". One 3 year old called them "papa and grandma". They love the way that they can screw and unscrew the different parts. I like them because they are a great tool for fine motor skill development and because they are made of wood.
Great in theory

Good quality and actually fun. My 7 yr old had more fun playing with it though than my 2 yr old. It is great in theory, as my son especially likes to take things apart and put them back together, but he gets frustrated because the pieces that are screwed all the way down to the bottom take a lot of twisting to get off and he feels like he isn't getting anywhere with it. He is good with just playing with one piece and taking it on and off, like putting a lid on a pop bottle. Eventually I think he will get it more, as he has only played with it for one day. But again a great way for them to exercise important skills, in theory, expeciallly if your child is really into using his fine moter skills and has good dexterity like my little one. We are not giving up on this one!!

My 18 month old son loves these! They are perfect to take to restaurants to keep him busy without having a zillion little pieces!

My daughter loves to screw and unscrew containers, so i bought this for her. Although they do not keep her interest, I think it is a great quality toy and would recomend them for others. The colors are nice and bright and the edges aren't sharp.
Great toy!!!!

My daughter loves this toy. She loves taking off and putting back on the parts. It's well made and the colors are great. She never "latches on" to specific toys, but this one she had to take with her everywhere...the car, naps, etc.! A real winner!
