{"product_id":"tiny-tree-toys-wooden-toolbox-monochrome-tool-set","title":"Wooden Toolbox","description":"\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003eEvery little builder needs their own kit, and this wooden toolbox is a beautiful place to start. It has a natural wooden carry case with a soft cotton rope handle and latches that close securely. When opened, the case folds out into three sections, so children can see every tool in its place. Inside is a set of child-sized tools in calm black, grey and white: a hammer, saw, screwdrivers, spanners, pliers, and nuts and bolts. There are also two small pull-out drawers for the little pieces.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003eChildren can tighten, loosen, hammer, saw and “fix” whatever needs attention around the house. Afterwards, every tool goes back into its spot. Clearing away is part of the play, and that makes this set as much about order and independence as it is about building. It works on its own for pretend play, and it also pairs well with a workbench or a tool belt for a complete little workshop.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003eThe muted monochrome palette sits quietly on a shelf and leaves room for the child’s imagination. The wood has a smooth, durable finish, so the set is made to last through years of repairs and can be passed down when your child is done with it.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3 dir=\"ltr\"\u003eWhat’s Included\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e1 x Wooden carry case with rope handle, latches and 2 built-in drawers\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e1 x Hammer\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e1 x Saw\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e2 x Screwdrivers\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e1 x Pliers\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e1 x Adjustable spanner\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e2 x Spanners\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAssorted nuts and bolts \u003cem\u003e(please confirm the count)\u003c\/em\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCase dimensions: approx. 30 x 21 x 8 cm (closed)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTotal: 25 pieces\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRecommended age: 3 years+ (contains small parts)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3 dir=\"ltr\"\u003eWhat the OT Says\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003eAs an occupational therapist, I love tool play because it gives children real, purposeful hand work wrapped up in something they genuinely want to do. Turning a screwdriver needs a steady grip and repeated rotation through the wrist and forearm. Those are the same movements children later use to open lids, turn taps and manage buttons. Tightening a bolt with a spanner or squeezing the pliers adds resistance, and that builds hand strength and endurance in the small muscles of the hand.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003eHammering is wonderful for hand-eye coordination and for learning to grade force. A child has to aim, judge how hard to tap, and adjust when it doesn’t work. It also gives rich proprioceptive feedback through the hands and arms, which many children find organising and satisfying. Most of these tools ask for two hands working together. One hand holds the bolt or the case steady while the other does the skilled work. That kind of bilateral coordination is a foundation for cutting with scissors, writing and dressing.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003eThe case itself does important work too. Matching each tool back to its slot builds visual discrimination and simple organisation. Opening the small drawers with their round knobs invites a refined pincer grasp. Planning a “repair job” and working out which tool to use and in what order supports early sequencing, problem-solving and executive function. Role play also brings lovely language naturally: \u003cem\u003etighten, loosen, twist, measure, fix, finished.\u003c\/em\u003e When played alongside a sibling or friend, it adds turn-taking and sharing.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003eThere is no single right way to play with this set, and every child will make it their own. I recommend it for home play and for clinical use, particularly for sessions focused on hand strength, bilateral coordination and purposeful, motivating fine motor work.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"tiny tree toys","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44890960429275,"sku":"SS001127","price":695.95,"currency_code":"ZAR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0640\/9155\/4011\/files\/054975C1-FCD9-404D-92EB-BA106B2D9F13.jpg?v=1715353662","url":"https:\/\/tinytreetoys.co.za\/products\/tiny-tree-toys-wooden-toolbox-monochrome-tool-set","provider":"tiny tree toys","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
