The set comes with 4 different shapes of nuts and bolts, and children need to match the shape and twist the nuts on the bolts. Careful, only the correct shape nut fits on the matching shape bolt since the bolts have different size shafts (it doesn’t go by color!). Children have fun while working out their fine motor skills and bilateral coordination by playing.
