Read First Before Buy Melissa Doug Wooden Sandwich Making Set
I had a friend who's 2yr old child had a food cutting set, and I was skeptical of whether my 2yr old daughter would also like it. I picked Melissa and Doug's set b/c their quality is always excellent, and I am again impressed with the craftsmanship and detail of this set. I am also pleasantly suprised to find that of all the expensive electronic gifts my 2yo got for her birthday, this has turned out to be her favorite toy!!!! It keeps her entertained for quite a while, and is great for parent/child play together. I only wish it came with more pieces, as I run out of combinations of sandwiches to make for her (but she definately doesn't seem to mind, she just keeps cutting!) Excellent for hand-eye and fine motor coordination, educational (verbal, counting, colors, etc) skills, and withstands a significant toddler beating. Also handy to have the storage box for clean-up. I also strongly recommend Melissa and Doug's food cutting set, which makes a nice coordinated set with this one, and increases the educational value and variety (for mommy who seems to get bored more quickly than my daughter!)

Kids really enjoy playing with this and it helps to teach them how food is prepared. They really like putting together different combinations of the inside ingredients. I like the wood better than plastic. I babysit my grandchildren and they like to "make meals" for me.
BalasHapusOur 25 month old didn't really do much interactive pretend playing until he got this one for Christmas. Has opened up a whole new world of fun for us. Even our 5 year old and 8 year old enjoy making various sandwiches for one another and pretending to eat.
BalasHapusGood food set, a million times better than the plastic food. I bought this along with the Melissa and Doug Pizza set and so if you only want one set I would go with the pizza set as my girls play with that way more than this but it is well made and the velcro is awesome. Definetly worth it and a great addition to the play kitchen.
BalasHapusMy children enjoy making sandwiches for all. The product is life-size, extremely durable, and fun. They are able to velcro the cheese to the meats and the meats to the bread and cut them all apart with the wooden knife included. The tray is also nice to use to store everything inside the kitchen set. I highly recommend this product!
BalasHapusMy 3 grandchildren, ages 2 1/2 to 3 1/2, love this! They take orders for sandwiches, then have a great time making them! The pieces are made from wood, so there is nothing to break.

BalasHapusI am a nanny for a 18 mos. old and 3.5 year-old. It is very hard to find toys/games that both can not only enjoy, but participate and learn. This fits all those needs. The 3 year-old can be the "chef" and cut and divide (she's learned what "half" and "quarter" are just by playing with these foods that divide into halves and quarters, the 18mos. can play immagination with the food as we sit down for picnics. We can play for at least an hour with this.
BalasHapusMy son couldn't get enough of the Food Box from the same company, so I bought him this and now he loves them both! These are great complimentary toys that play well together and give my son hours of entertainment away from the TV. At this price, I recommend buying this for any 3-5 year olds that you are shopping for (even for birthday party presents!)
BalasHapusThe kids love to play "Subway" with this set. The durable wood can take lots of "remaking" and the size of the pieces works nicely with some other plastic food that I had on hand.
