We purchased this for our autistic three year old to use in his sensory bean bin. It has become one of his favorite toys and is excellent practice for dexterity and problem solving. The yellow piece specifically was an interesting tool. You push the handles to open the cups. It took him a bit to figure out how it worked, but he was interested enough to focus on the task. The scissors portion of the pack has done well on teaching him hand placement although I think it would not have worked as well if he was left handed. The tweezers were quickly lost as they didn't work well with the beans we were using it for, but they did work well with picking up paper. The eye dropper is probably his favorite out of the lot. It goes in the tub with him, when he washes his hands, and when he's at his water table. It does not seal, so the water drips out the tip after its sucked in, so there is no walking about with water in it, but there were no issues with the bulb portion. These were all very durable plastic and have held up to months of usage. The colors are bright and interesting. It has made a great addition to our therapy training.

They are cute and good for teaching children fine motor skills. They are sturdy, and came in a variety of colors. Great product.

We’ve been using these for about four months and they’ve been a big hit. We use them for scooping rice and in sensory bins, and they’ve held up really well. They’re very fun and engaging, and my daughter loves using them. Such a great way to work on fine motor skills while playing. Definitely worth it!

This little set is wonderful for helping kids with their fine motor skills, but there are a couple things I dont love... The alligator tweezers are VERY hard to squeeze together. With most of these types of tweezers I have encountered, they are usually too flimsy- so its nice they are sturdy, but my 3 year old son cant use them... which defeats the purpose. Even for me they are difficult to use because they are very blunt on the end on top of the difficulty with squeezing them so they are not practical for picking up really anything in the sensory bins except maybe very large pom poms or something.... also the scissor hold tongs with the ball on the end (sorry I have no idea what it is called) is made so that the half circles pop off the handle when my son pulls on them. They snap right back in place and work just like they did before, so that is great- but he likes to pull them off and then they can become a choking hazard for the baby or get lost if I am not paying close enough attention. Other wise, they are very sturdy and my son loves them. The yellow pinchers and the dropper are his favorite and work entirely as intended. This is a fun set for sensory bins and bath time. I would definitely recommend it. I do wish they would at least re-think the alligator tweezers and make them more child friendly though....

These tools were perfect for our daughter’s sensory box. She enjoys using the water bulb and scoopers. Fun for an almost two year old.

Our OT suggested we buy this to help our son with scissor skills.

My son has some trouble with his fine motor skills and he was thrilled to play with this set as well as his 8 year old brother and 2 year old sister. The only thing my 2 year old couldn't handle was the yellow squeeze tool because in order to open it you squeeze and scoop, then let go to close because it's pressured shut. She could open it but can't understand she has to let go to "capture" the rice inside it. She still had fun playing with it however. The tweezers were not hard to squeeze as one review I read said. The scissor grip tool is slightly less durable than the other tools so if your kids rough house with them then they might break but my kids are hard on things and it hasn't broken yet. These are fun for them to use with their sensory bins/experiments and offers a nice variety of tools for children to use with various activities to strengthen their fine motor skills.

My son is OBSESSED with these. I let him play with them with Kinetic sand. Naturally the syringe doesn’t work with sand, so we save that for water play. However he did play with it with sand once and it was nearly impossible to clean. Lots of time spend flushing it with water. The alligator tweezers work really well and seem really sturdy and well made. Same with the ball scissors/graspers. However, the yellow little ball reverse grasp is terrible. Within a week one side of the ball broke off. Maybe my son is just rough? But it was frustrating none the less. Maybe don’t give that one to your kid until you know he/she can be more gentle with it.

Stupende... le tenevo d'occhio da molto tempo e finalmente con l'offerta prime mi sono decisa! Mio figlio e io le adoriamo per i travasi e i giochi in acqua. Allenano la motricità fine e sono ideali da usare anche al mare.

Dosyć delikatne raczej trzeba uważać żeby dziecko nie połamało bo może się skaleczyć.

Not only do these tools look attractive, they are of absolutely great quality and my 2 year old loves using these.

Very nice and useful toy

Very good set, my toddler is almost 3 and loves it. It’s great for motor skills and perfect for sensory play. One downside is I have a chewer and he chewed the end of the dropper which did not hold up. So if you have a chewer I’d only use that piece under supervision.
