Wooden Montessori Busy Board for 3 Year Olds – Educational Toys with Lights and Tools
The Wooden Montessori Busy Board is a fun and educational toy for 3 year olds and up. It features 6 light bulbs, 6 screws, and 6 tools that kids can use to learn about cause and effect, problem-solving, and fine motor skills. The board is made of smooth wood and is safe for children to play with. It is also a great travel toy, as it is lightweight and easy to carry.
Here are some of the benefits of the Wooden Montessori Busy Board:
- Develops fine motor skills: The light bulbs, screws, and tools help kids to develop their fine motor skills by practicing grasping, turning, and twisting.
- Improves hand-eye coordination: Kids need to use their hands and eyes together to operate the light bulbs, screws, and tools. This helps to improve their hand-eye coordination.
- Teaches cause and effect: When kids turn the switches, they see the light bulbs light up. This helps them to learn about cause and effect.
- Promotes problem-solving skills: Kids need to figure out how to use the light bulbs, screws, and tools. This helps to promote their problem-solving skills.
- Stimulates the senses: The different colors, shapes, and textures of the light bulbs, screws, and tools stimulate the senses of sight, touch, and hearing.
- Encourages creativity: Kids can use their imaginations to come up with different ways to use the light bulbs, screws, and tools. This encourages creativity.
The Wooden Montessori Busy Board is a great way for kids to learn and grow. It is a safe, educational, and fun toy that kids will love.

Grandson loves it. I only wish it had a bag to store the tools or that it had a drawer.

Great toy for kids who like to make things work
I actually had submitted this as a return but my 3-year-old grandson spied it when he was over and of course I had to let him open it. He loved it. Easily was able to use the screwdriver and key wrench. The buttons are a little harder to push but he has enough strength to do that. Maybe a year ago it would have been harder. Big disappointment was the other wrench 🔧 was too small to fit over the head of the screw so it is not useable. I am hoping his dad can shave off a bit so he can use it. I agree with another reviewer that the noise button is oppressive. Why does he not like other sounds but can press and hold that one for minutes at a time? A question for the ages. The wrenches and screwdriver are very solid as are the screws. All the lights worked. Based on my grandson’s enthusiasm for it, I would recommend this product for any child that loves to make things work.

Screws Look used, bad quality
One of the screws can’t even be used because metal is still in the middle where the screw driver is supposed to go so now if my son loses one, he won’t be able to use the other. One of the others is so scratched up and dirty like it’s been used and returned or something. Not what I was expecting

This product is advertised for boys, but girls should not be excluded.
Goof toy for 3 year-old. Held my granddaughter’s interest reasonably well.

Keeps them busy for hours.
I bought this for my 2 year old grandson. He loved it but my 4 year old granddaughter thought it was wonderful. I’m getting ready to order a second one so they each have one. Very educational and keeps them busy for hours. Very well made!

grandson loves this toy.
My 2 1/2 year old grandson loves this toy. He plays with it for long periods of time and is learning colors. He is learning on and off, numbers by pushing the alarm three times. Well worth the money. If it came with a pouch to store the wooden board and the three tool, it would be even better.

My grandson broke it after two uses
He is 4 yrs old and he Loves the tools that come with it. However, he pushed in one of the colored ball lights with his finger. And the lights are not lighting brightly.

My Dementia Patient loves this!
The gentleman I take care of has dementia and worked in construction his whole life so i thought this would be a great gift. He absolutely loves it! It definitely helps his brain activity! He works hard everyday! The orange light was pressed in when we got it and doesn’t work but all the others are just fine.

Great toy for toddler boy
This meets my expectations. Smaller than I picture but I guess I didn’t read the dimensions! It fits a toddler hand well.He loves the lights and switches. Haven’t tried the little tools yet for the screw pieces as he is too young for that but it’s perfect for when he is.It’d be nice to store the little tools in the toy to keep it altogether. It’s great.

I think it is a good toy for my grandson learning some of his colors
After using for a while the yellow know came off which could cause a choking problem just want you to know

Dont waste your money!!
Prepare to be disappointed when purchasing this!. I purchased this for my son’s birthday as he just turned 3, and half of the board does not work!.1. The red button/light do NOT turn on. (See photo)2. It is MISSING a threaded slot and just has an empty hole. The box and description show that an additional screw should be able to go there. (See photo)3. The little yellow beep/horn button does NOT work.4. The green light flickers intermittently.Save your money and the frustration! Do Not Buy!!

Parts are too small for a 3yr old
The board comes with actual screws that are way to small even for a 3yr old. I should have looked closer. The switches are good for motor skill development.

Cheap!!!! Buy something, anything else!
Looks like a child made it, actually my 10 year old granddaughter could have done better! Wrench is wrong size for bolt and one of the screw holes just spins when bolt is inserted. Very disappointing but she wants to keep it so I’ll try to fix it and get the right wrench

Cheap, small and definitely not worth the money. Plus I was sent the wrong one.

Grandson loved it
My grandson is always on the go and toys don’t seem to entertain him much but he sat with this for a straight hour when he got it . One hour for a 3 year old is amazing !!!

Scalable as they get older. My 1 1/2 year old loves the buttons. Ill add the tools later.
Great toy, my 1 1/2 year old plays with it a lot. The buttons were a little challenging at first but she learned how it worked. The light was a cool way to show a tactile result.

My three- and two-year-olds both love it. They aren’t ready for the tools yet but love all the switches. Just be ready for it to go through batteries pretty quickly

Arrived damaged and obviously previously opened
Was hoping to give this to our grandson for an airplane trip….it arrived with the box unsealed and opened. The product box, not the shipping box. It appeared to have been previously opened and then everything shoved back into the box. The bubble wrap wasn’t even on the item. The blue light is missing and nowhere to be found, so it did not fall off on transit. Very disappointed.

LEDS faded and some stopped working
Cool little toy, but only a couple weeks with a very young and weak baby some of the leds stopped working and there is no way to open it up and fix it.

Tiny & choking hazard
Smaller than it looks in the pics, and comes with 4 metal bolts that are easily swallowed by young kids. It says 3+ but this isn’t for 3 or 4 year olds in my opinion. If the bolts were bigger it would be a good toy for fine motor, but I’ll be throwing away the small, metal bolts. My son is 3 and there’s no doubt these would be in his mouth.

Not all working
I like this product except the blue light is not working. The back is glued on and I font feel like trying to pry it off to make sure it works. Definitely not worth the price if it doesn’t all work. :/

Great until you need to change the batteries
I bought this for a Christmas gift for my son, he loved pushing the colorful buttons and watching them light up along with the morris code sounds button.However it came time to replace the batteries for the first time and the the battery compartment broke rendering it useless now. My son only got to play with it for less than 2 months.As far as the durability of the battery compartment goes, I rate this busy board as poor. If we’d been able to replace batteries with no problem I would have given this product a better review.

It breaks VERY easily
My son dropped this once on our carpet and the battery portion on the front is made up of plastic holding the two batteries together for energy to the toy. Well it broke after one drop on carpet. For being a neat toy it’s very neat we love it for his occupational therapy but cmon, the plastic is so fragile now the toy cannot be used at all.
