Today, I have a fun review for you. These Melissa and Doug toys are played with at least weekly here, mostly by Cocoa Puff while Froot Loop is at school. I love that they enable to us to build our own little world.
It's no secret that we love Melissa and Doug in this family. One of the toys that my boys have sort of re-discovered recently are their Fill and Spill toys, which basically, are a clear container that holds a myriad of small plush toys that all relate to each other.
My kids LOVE baths. They LOVE LOVE LOVE baths. Often, if they're in a bad mood that I just can't snap them out of, I'll just put them in the bath, and they almost always feel better.
We love books in this house. We have the equivalence of a small library of baby and kids books (as well as adult books, especially of the science fiction variety). Here's the thing though: all the kids' books get read! My boys LOVE to read! Cocoa Puff got some really fun books for Christmas last year that are still among his favorites.
One of our favorite brands of toys is Rhino O Ball. We have a lot of their toys and the company is coming out with new toys all the time. These toys have distinctive circle shaped holes that are absolutely perfect for young babies to grab. Babies can stick their fingers in the holes and really grab ahold of the toys. They are fantastic first toys, but toddlers and preschoolers can get a lot of enjoyment out of them too.
Ah, Duplo blocks. The toy every child needs/wants/has. They make so many different building sets, and we have several that we love, but perhaps our favorite set is just the plain ol’ bucket of blocks. Both of the boys LOVE their Duplo sets, even though Froot Loop has started to move onto the Lego Junior sets.
My kiddos have always loved baths. We have a small variety of bath toys, but sometimes, you know, you just need to do something different. Santa Claus brought a fun new bath item and the boys have fallen in love with it!
As Froot Loop grew into preschooler age, his dexterity and curiosity grew too. One of his favorite things to do is to help me in the kitchen. He has a set of nylon knives that he LOVES to cut up soft foods with. Since he loves this so much, we bought him the Melissa and Doug cutting food set.
Melissa and Doug has several sets of play food that work well in just about any play kitchen. One of them is the Let’s Play House Grocery Can set.
I wrote this review a LONG time ago! Cocoa Puff has always loved food and never had a problem eating. So, here is this review as I wrote it last year:
