As soon as my son got his hands on Manny´s Repair Shop I was amazed at how he started hammering and using the screwdriver correctly and easily without my help. I didn’t explain how to use it, the parts are big enough and easy enough for him to do it himself.
The toy comes with many parts to build lots of projects. It has six main project blueprints that Manny helps you go through step by step and it also comes with another big sheet with many more ideas of simple or complex projects to build which we have made many of already. One time we made a toolbox and he put some other tools in there and took it with him when we went out; so the projects he builds are other toys he can play with by themselves.
My son is always imitating Daddy if he is fixing something around the house so with this repair shop he invites Daddy to fix something with him, he loves to use the power saw and the power drill that come with it too, they really feel like they are drilling and sawing.
I love that it has music included and when the music comes he gets excited and dances with it. The only complaint I have is that there are not many Spanish words included as in other Handy Manny’s toys, but, as usual, when we play we speak in Spanish, so he says: “Mami, voy a arreglar esto con Handy Manny! Mami, voy a hacer un carrito!”

My grandson will love this. He is always wanting to help his dad with projects, so for him to be able to do his own projects will be great fun.
My nephew would love that.
This is so…adorable! My son would absolutely love this. He loves Handy Manny, and just loves helping his Dad & Grandfather fix things. It would be wonderful for him to have his own little repair shop — how cute…

My grandson would love to have Manny’s Repair Shop. He would not even talk to me on the phone the other day because he was busy watching Manny. He carries his play tools around in his pockets because he is always going to “fix” things. He would think that I am the greatest Grandma in the world if I won this for him. I live quite aways from him, and it would be nice to surprise him with something that I know he really enjoys.
Thank you,

My 4 and 6 year old boy’s would love this! They are big fan’s of Handy Manny and love’s watching the show. They do not have a father or a father figure in their lives so it is up to me to teach them things that a father would teach his son. They watch me fix things around the house and is always trying to help me so having something like this will make them feel like they are being “the man of the house”!
This would be for my son! He LOVES Handy Manny, we watch the tv show all the time, and he has the Handy Manny truck that he gets to “fix” and it’s one of his favorite toys!!
THANKS!
Tristan is constantly taking things apart. This toy would allow him to put them back together.

My husband isn’t too handy, he’s more of a computer guy…but we used to have a neighbor who was always fixing things – for us too as he worked for our landlady – and robby loved to watch – soooooooooo intently and was always overjoyed when our neighbor would give him his tools to pretend afterwords.
