bryn76's Full Review: Melissa and Doug Melissa Doug Take Along Tool Kit
When I saw this Melissa and Doug Take Along Tool Kit in the store, I knew it would be perfect for my 3 year old daughter. My husband frequently does construction jobs and packs around his own toolbox, and our daughter is always trying to be more like daddy. So I knew she'd love it...I just didn't realize how much! Since receiving this tool kit last Christmas, she's taken the tool kit to bed regularly, brings it with us in the car when we go out, packs it around the house constantly, takes it on trips with us...the tool kit is pretty much a part of the family.
The kit includes 24 painted wooden pieces, including a hammer and nails, a screw driver and screws, nuts and bolts, and a wrench, along with a few pieces of wood with holes in them to accommodate screws and nails. The pieces are brightly colored and have been very easy to spot around the house, making this one of the few toys sets we own that is easy to keep track of all the pieces of. Because they're all wooden pieces, they are sturdy and of good quality- something my husband and I require for toys. And the little toolbox is very handy for both tool storage and play. There are holes in the sides and the end to put nails or screws through.
This is a fantastic toy. It's great for building those fine motor skills and encouraging creativity.
