Grignard reagents react with carbonyl compounds because the carbon-magnesium bond in Grignard reagents is polar, giving the carbon atom a slight negative charge that allows it to act as a nucleophile. As a nucleophile, the negatively charged carbon attacks the positively charged carbon in carbonyl compounds. This reaction occurs because of the electrostatic attraction between the negatively charged carbon in the Grignard reagent and the positively charged carbon in the carbonyl compound.

The mechanisms for these reactions aren't required in syllabuses, but you might need to know a little about the nature of Grignard reagents.
The bond between the carbon atom and the
magnesium is polar. Carbon is more electronegative than magnesium, and so the bonding pair of electrons is pulled towards the carbon.
That leaves the carbon atom with a slight negative
charge.
The Grignard reagent can therefore serve as a
nucleophile because of the attraction between the slight negativeness of the carbon atom in the Grignard reagent and the positiveness of the carbon in the carbonyl compound.
A nucleophile is a species that attacks positive (or
slightly positive) centres in other molecules or ions. http://www.chemguide.co.uk/organicprops/haloalkanes/grignard.html
