5.0 out of 5 stars Great Toy, but Now Everything is a Nail
(function() { P.when('cr-A', 'ready').execute(function(A) { if(typeof A.toggleExpanderAriaLabel === 'function') { A.toggleExpanderAriaLabel('review_text_read_more', 'Read more of this review', 'Read less of this review'); } }); })(); .review-text-read-more-expander:focus-visible { outline: 2px solid #2162a1; outline-offset: 2px; border-radius: 5px; } Melissa and Doug nailed it again (pun intended) with this classic workbench toy. The quality is exactly what you’d expect from the brand—sturdy, well-designed, and built to withstand toddler enthusiasm.That said, owning this toy has introduced a new household game: “What Can I Bang On Today?” We now have regular conversations that go something like, “The hammer is for banging on the workbench, the hammer is for banging on nails, the hammer is not for banging on the walls.” (Pro tip: Check out the Best Behavior book series for tools to handle those fun chats—especially Hands Are Not for Hitting.)The screws are still a little challenging for my toddler, but he’s just under the recommended age, so I’m confident he’ll get there. In the meantime, I love how this toy encourages independent and creative play, all without requiring batteries or screens. It’s also a win for our goal to stick with less plastic in our toy collection.All in all, this is a fantastic, reasonably priced toy that keeps little hands busy (even if it means a few extra "hammer talks" along the way). Highly recommend for budding builders!
5.0 out of 5 stars Quality Craftsmanship and Endless Play with Melissa & Doug Toolbox"
I recently purchased the Melissa & Doug Toolbox for my little one, and it has quickly become a favorite in our household.The craftsmanship of the toolbox is outstanding – sturdy wooden construction and attention to detail showcase the brand's commitment to quality. The realistic design adds an extra layer of excitement for young ones who love to mimic real-world scenarios.The variety of tools included is impressive, providing a well-rounded play experience. From a functional screwdriver to colorful nuts and bolts, it sparks creativity and imaginative play.What stands out the most is the educational aspect – my child is not only having fun but also developing essential fine motor skills and problem-solving abilities.Melissa & Doug Toolbox is not just a toy; it's a tool for learning and exploration. I appreciate the durability and the educational value it brings to playtime.Highly recommended for parents seeking a well-made, engaging, and educational toy that fosters creativity and skill development. A fantastic addition to any child's playroom!
5.0 out of 5 stars Great fun for my little builder!
My LO is 20mnths and he really likes this toy. The hammer is his favorite piece! I expect he'll like it for a long time since he it will remain a challenge for a long time. It can be used in a variety of ways: hammering the nails to the box, screwing pieces together, screwing pieces to the box, removing nails with prying end of hammer, twisting washers by hand or with wrench/driver.Pros:1. Educational a) improves dexterity b) requires problem solving c) encourages imagination2. Fun esp. since they can mimic mom and dad using tools3. Bold primary (unisex) colors.4. Made of durable wood.5. Easy to take with you since everything fits in the tool box6. Great price for the qualityCons:1. Does not have any other sets you can purchase to enhance this set2. Grooves in screws extend for edge to edge, so it is tricky to keep screwdriver in place esp. when using in combination with wrench3. Made in China even though it is an American owned company.In response to common complaints from other critics.1. Nails are hard to get out once hammered in. True, but my guy can do it by himself using the prying part of the hammer.2. Chemical paint smell. Not true at all in the set we got and I am very sensitive to chemical smells.3. Paint chipping. You do get paint transfer on the hammer if you hammer the painted parts (nails are not painted). But otherwise no chipping.4. Splinters. My dog chewed on a couple of pieces and they splintered. However, my LO doesn't chew on them, and I doubt they would splinter if he did. They do not splinter when used in normal play.5. Not realistic looking. The hammer is thick like a mallet but that is good for toddlers. They look as pictured. I would recommend real tools if your child has the dexterity, but for toddlers/preschoolers this set works.
5.0 out of 5 stars Awesome Quality Wooden Tool Kit
WOW! I can't say enough great things about this Wooden Tool Kit! I opened the plastic packaging it came in to place it in a gift-bag and send it to my Godson whom will be turning 2 later this month!Boy was I impressed with the colors, the feel, and the overall quality of the Tool Kit and all the parts inside! It comes with a hammer, wrench, and screwdriver. As well as lot's of screws and wooden plates. There are actually holes everywhere on the plates and the tool box itself so there is much fun and creativity to be had!I love the thought and giving the gift of quality wooden toys in a world of plastic everything now-a-days. This toy hit the mark and I will be purchasing other products from Melissa & Doug in the future! I can't wait to see my Godson play with these awesome toys!
4.0 out of 5 stars Pretty good tool set
Got this tool set, on sale, primarily for the hammer and tool box. 2 y.o. Grandson is a bit young to actually use the tools for construction, but loves using the hammer to bang golf tees into styrofoam blocks. Also enjoys counting and sorting the colorful nails, screws and wood pieces that come with it. I’m sure he will be able to use the tools for more complex tasks as he grows. Only negative is the finish on the wood which is rough and not well sanded in some spots leading to a couple of pokes and potential splinters.
Excellent quality

Was exactly same as shown in website and its very intriguing for young minds. Although my daughter is only 18 mnths bt still she ws excited to see the packing , hammer and yes the most favourite screw driver which she just cant let go off.
Was as expected and My toddler loves it
Well, my little one likes to hammer down those wedges :). The tools look durable and of good quality. Didn't observe anything negative about it.
My grand daughter loves this product. She is 2.5
Great product and price!
Well made wood toolbox.
The product is well made, good quality, bright colors. It has all necessary stuff to assembly, start to develop basic technical skills, improve imagination and keeps my son busy for 10-15 minutes :)Great quality aducational wood toy, highly recommended for 3-4 years old.
Fabulous but, hide the hammer 😂
My grandson loves this - especially the hammer😂! I've had to hide it to save the doors and glass in my kitchen door!! He now plays with the hammer under supervision.This is a great toy, not only for the younger ones but as they grow they can make shapes and structures learning how to use tools as they go. I can see this being used for many years to come.A little pricy but worth it for the quality of the product. Vibrant colours that attract their attention and the colour does not come off or fade. Would recommend.
