Educational Insights Design & Drill SparkleWorks - Light Up Drill Toy, STEM Learning with Toy Drill

I got this on Amazon prime day for twenty dollars and my kids like it a lot, their father is a mechanic so they love to pretend they are one too. They love to use the drill to pretend they are working on cars or building houses. We have had it for around a month and so far the screwdriver has not broken like other reviewers said. I wish it came with an extra screwdriver or there was an option to buy an extra one because it's big enough for my three and four year old to play with together. It came with a booklet filled with nice detailed pictures of designs that can be made I accidently lost it. After I called the company they put the instruction booklet on their website and they emailed me a copy of it. They were very helpful. My kids also love putting the screws in and unscrewing it with just their fingers. Sometimes the screwdriver is unable to unscrew if the nails are too tight. The sound feature is really nice my kids love playing different music to see how the box lights up. They love to take it outside when they go camping it looks pretty at night. They call it their fairy laser light show toy. Their favorite design to make is a butterfly that looks like a fairy. The screws are not really small like the lite bright pieces so they don't get lost that easily. This seems like a sturdy toy but we don't have carpet and if they drop it it might break so I have not let them play unsupervised with it yet. The toy is a great way to teach kids about reverse action because Depending on how you turn the screw driver the nails either go in or come out. So far my kids are happy I'll update if anything changes.

As an Educational Insights Insider, we received this toy for review in our State-of-the-Art Toy Testing Facility here at Rock Father HQ (our house). We have a lot of Design & Drill items in our collection, and they've always tapped into that natural desire for kids to want to build and create. At the most basic level, they love to "put things together like mommy and daddy," but with the colored drill bits and bolts, here they can make fancy patterns or just do some freestyle art. Out of all of our sets, this one became a fast favorite, with the light-up function in some ways recalling Lite-Brite style play, and the new light-up drill moving faster (and brighter) than our other Design & Drill tools. The big bonus here is the sound-activated flashing lights, which have the ability to create an instant dance party. It's like having Saturday Night Fever on the art desk, and that's something I can get behind! Some great STEM action in this set for little makers!

The screw drive does not fit well with other part. Just gave it to my granddaughter. I wish I had opened it sooner. Also I do not hear,any music. Gems are re hard to start turning. It is definitely not what I was buying. Also over priced for what it does. Disappointing.

Great product but the drill stopped working. Got a replacement and it still wasn't working well enough consistently. We ended up returning the product.

The toy itself is pretty neat but I am very disappointed with the drill. Yes you can use it without the drill but the kids do like the drill. I contacted the manufacturer because the drill wouldn't work. They said I needed Energizer batteries. I purchased them special and it worked. I put it away for a month until I needed it in the switch off position and the drill wouldn't work. Dead batteries while resting? Very disappointing.

I had something like this when I was younger! I found this one while trying to find Chrostmas ideas for my 3 year old. She loves it, and likes being like daddy!

What a great toy! The motorized screwdriver screws bolts in and removes them (easy for my 4 year old, challenging but doable for my 2 year old). The screws are different colors and shapes, helping my 2 year old learn. The lights are pretty cool too, and the fact that they respond to sound provides great fun for both kids. I'll be giving this as a gift to others.

I highly recommend this toy. It enhances many developmental areas. It provides great hand-eye coordination practice and is a motivating way to strengthen small muscles. Following patterns and creating designs make it a hit. My four year old granddaughter loves it. It keeps her busy and it sparkles.

Mi hija (3 años recién cumplidos) lo ha usado una mañana. Habrá hecho dos o tres dibujos. La verdad que le ha encantado, pensábamos que habíamos acertado con el regalo. Pero de repente el atornillador ha perdido la fuerza y no hace girar las piezas. Pensaba que eran las pilas, le he puesto unas nuevas y nada. La verdad que como es transparente he visto que las ruedas dentadas no estaban trabajando bien. Total, he pedido un reemplazo, pero me temo que con ruedas dentadas de plástico, poco va a durar. El que me ha llegado de reemplazo con la misma historia. Después de un rato deja de funcionar. El problema parece que está en los engranajes, que al ser de plásticos se deterioran. Mucho “diseñado en California, fabricado en China” pero este cacharro dudo que tenga un mínimo de control de calidad. No lo recomiendo. ¿Ahora que le regalo a mi hija? Le gustaba mucho este juego.

I bought this as a gift for my niece a few months back. I finally gifted it to her on her bday. One use and the drill has stopped working properly. Its quite dissapointing as I was so sure she would enjoy this toy.

This product is adorable, my 3 yr old and 7 yr old both get separate enjoyment out of it. You'll need 6 batteries to make the drill and box light up. The response to audio is probably their favorite thing to play with!

Lo pedí para un regalo y no me gusto que en lugar de mandarlo dentro de una caja protegido, le pegaron directamente la guía al paquete y se dañó la caja. El Juguete es muy lindo ya lo había comprado anteriormente pero deberían tener cuidado al momento de empacarlo para el envío

Absolutely raging this was a present from Santa and the drill has broken after a couple of uses. Very disappointed with this as my son was loving it.
