Favourite Toys - Melissa and Doug Play Food

Lana shares:

"Melissa and Doug Play food - especially the Ice Cream set. L loves it! She takes your order, sometimes charges you money for it, and brings you your ice cream as requested. All of the food is good quality and leads to hours of imagination and fun. I purchased the cookie set for her for Christmas and there is also a pizza set that's on my list too!"

Lana, the Ice Cream set must be a hit, another mom mentioned it as well. I have also heard of the cookie set. It is so neat when they can pretend play like that and make real world connections. Those are great ideas for Christmas and good for either gender. Melissa and Doug make great toys and are a definite Mommy Favourite! They can be purchased from many toy stores and even online.

Favourite Toys - Ice Cream Parlour Set

Allyson shares one of her kids' faves:

"Melissa and Doug - Ice Cream Scoops Toy. We love this toy! All the wooden pieces have magnets in them: the scoop, the scoops of ice cream and the cone. Kids can pile up the different flavours according to mommy's order. We got this for Christmas and I was amazed how great it was and we still play with it."

Thanks Allyson, I love the Melissa and Doug wooden toys and I can see how this one could be a lot of fun!

Favourite Toys

Christine shares some of T’s current favourite toys:

1. Ikea train set - waaaay cheaper than the "Thomas" set.

2. Little People Plane - makes a few noises, it was bought for T as a gift before he went on a plane - great idea!

3. Melissa and Doug wooden puzzles - some of these have the big peg handles so they are easy to hang onto; some make sounds (animals, transportation, etc.)

Thanks Chris! H has a few M & D puzzles and loves to take out the pieces, but has not mastered putting them back in the right spot yet ;)
