Product description

The most “attractive” ice cream in your child’s pretend kitchen or restaurant. Use both of the magnetic scoopers, four scoops of favorite ice cream flavors, and wooden cones for hours of “positive” social interaction and fine motor play. All the ice cream scoops can be stored neatly in the sturdy plastic container. For a child, the only thing more delicious than an ice cream dessert may be the amazing chance to be the one in charge of it! Great for preschoolers longing to act out “real-world” scenarios and assert some control over their lives (and irresistible to older kids too), this wooden play set allows kids to choose: How many scoops? What flavors? Is it time for seconds yet? Imagining themselves on the other side of the counter, busy “scoopers” will naturally exercise communication skills, hand-eye coordination, sorting, counting, memory, and sequencing as their confidence and social skills grow. Kids loving playing together when sweet treats are involved. Our ice cream toy with scoopers inspires children to interact with each other while developing fine motor skills. The Melissa & Doug ice cream play toy is designed for easy and convenient storage. The ice cream scoops store neatly in the sturdy plastic container. This ice cream play set is a great gift for kids ages 3 to 5.

User questions & answers

Question:	Where can i buy just the scoop? The 2 that came with this are now broken
Answer:	Hi Nicole! This set is made of fabric and plastic. Woodn't you have fun taking care of your pets with this adorable set?!
Question:	What are the dimensions of the ice cream box. I need to know if it will fit in our play fridge. Thanks
Answer:	It is a very cheap looking set, so I would highly doubt it's BPA free
Question:	Can you order more ice cream
Answer:	No. This is some of the sturdier toy food I have seen. Some of them I can't squeeze at all, but there are a couple that if a child was persistent enough, they could probably smash. The majority of the food is fairly tough plastic though. It's some of the round hollow ones that have the potential to be crush-- but you would have to be trying to crush them to do it.
Question:	Is there any way the magnets could fall out? We have a one year old in the house, too
Answer:	My two-year-old still puts lots of things in her mouth, too, but none of these toys are big enough to cause her to choke.

User questions & answers

Question:	Does this come with a container to store the blocks in
Answer:	I looked at the fisher price farm animals - too bad they don't mention their size - the barn is probably larger, but they would definitely fit & would be cute.
Question:	Is there a chart that has pictures of things that can be built? Something that the child can try to duplicate
Answer:	I have a lot of great grandchildren and do not remember which one I gave this to. I would think a four year old would like it.
Question:	why is the 100 block set less expensive than the 60 block set
Answer:	I can't answer this question since we don't own a Melissa & Doug train track.
Question:	Could anyone provide dimensions for some of the pieces for reference, say, the largest and smallest pieces
Answer:	we have had this finely made toy for a few years, our grandchildren play with it a lot, they are 2, 4, 5. Everything is secure, no loosening after hours of play. And the use the magnet for other objects, like loading trains, doing magnetic puzzles.

User questions & answers

Question:	Are the patterns grooved (like a toddler puzzle) or flat
Answer:	I don’t make them but on the site scan down the page under product information see what it says I don’t think so it’s solid wood
Question:	Are the blocks made of plastic or wood
Answer:	We received this as a present two months ago, and I had the same reaction to the smell. We have other puzzles from this brand, and they do not smell like that. After letting it air out, the smell is still there. I put it away in a closet, but now the closet smells, too. I'll probably throw it out.
Question:	I am looking for a frame/puzzle that is blank...does not have pictures in it....for the kids to use pattern blocks and create their own designs
Answer:	Yes all their games are non toxic
Question:	Does the storage box have a lid
Answer:	I have no order or payment for this item. thanks, Karen

What is today? For a child, that simple question can have so many answers and this daily calendar helps satisfy them all! Kids will feel a greater sense of control and responsibility when they help post the day of the week, date, weather, and special events on the large magnetic board for all to see. There's even a space to post their mood an excellent way to open communication and encourage children to gauge their own emotions. Updating the information is simple: Simply take a preprinted magnet from the lower magnetic board (which hangs below the calendar to keep magnets within easy reach). Then place it on the calendar to fill in the information or make a custom magnet by writing on one of two dry-erase magnet tiles. There are fields for day, date, season, weather, temperature, activities, holiday, and mood. The Melissa & Doug My Magnetic Daily Calendar comes with 80 magnets, which include years, months, days of the week, holidays, emotions, and more. Our Melissa & Doug daily calendar encourages children to communicate with family members and friends, as their anticipation of upcoming events and special occasions is displayed on the calendar. The Magnetic Daily Calendar is an exceptional gift for kids ages 3 to 7 years. Add the Melissa & Doug Magnetic Responsibility Chart to round out the hands-on learning experience.

User questions & answers

Question:	Does it include Christmas as a holiday choice
Answer:	Not exact but I would say three to four inches biggest piece. Smaller are the squares and triangles and they are maybe 1.5 two inches. I bought for my 7 year old but my 11 month plays with them too. The only problem I have with the baby playing with them he has two teeth and chews the paint off easily. So not too good for babies.
Question:	Do the magnetic pieces have small, separate magnets on them, or is it like some M&D items where its magnetic paint and therefor flat on the back
Answer:	I think it is more appropriate for a 2 year than 1 year. The animals are made from very sturdy material, probably not wood, and are covered in material that looks like hair. My great granddaughter was 2 when I got them for her. She loves them still and is nearly 4.
Question:	What age is this recommended for
Answer:	Yes, it is. I bought it for my daughter on her 2nd birthday, she has played with it ever since. She is 4 now and still loves it.
Question:	What years are offer with this
Answer:	I gave this to my granddaughter when she was 2/3 years old and she is now 6 and plays with it daily. She tells me that is her favorite toy....Hope that helps

User questions & answers

Question:	Could a ten year old play with this
Answer:	That's a good question. Not sure. Sorry. Ours only had one knife as well but ended up buying Melissa & Doug's bread collection which also came with a knife so now we have 2.
Question:	Is the key removable
Answer:	Yes, it does. The Melissa and Doug calender gives all basic holidays and is well thought out.
Question:	Is this small and light enough that it could sit in a kids lap in their carseat
Answer:	its like most m.d items with the magnet and the painted picture on the top. no extra attached magnet so not a choking hazard. now this one actually has bigger magnets. the other calendar that M.D makes has small little magnets for numbers. these are a bit bigger so definitely more appropriate for preschoolers. hope that helps some.
Question:	How long do the radio songs last
Answer:	Hi happysab, this is recommended for age 3-6 yrs. my preschooler loves to change the calendar every day. It's educational and great fun!

User questions & answers

Question:	What animals does this include
Answer:	I am not real sure. We gave it to our Granddaughter and she played with it over at our house and took it home. It seems like it did not play the whole song. Maybe only a part of the song. Hope this helps.
Question:	what is the animal with the black band around its middle
Answer:	I don't think so. I believe the "cutting food" set with the bread loaf is the set that has the cutting board. It shows an oval cutting board in the photo. We have both sets and that is the cutting board we have.
Question:	Is this non toxic ink
Answer:	China
Question:	can these used for hand or face painting
Answer:	Yes-- all Melissa and Doug items conform to the CPSIA safety testing requirements.

A beloved classic toy gets an exciting new twist with this deluxe pounding bench. As the colorful, non-removable pegs on the bench go up and down, they play peekaboo, taking turns showing their friendly smiles while the child has fun practicing fine motor skills. And you’ll enjoy that because the pegs are attached, they can’t get lost. A sturdy wooden mallet is included. Children delight in striking a peg with the mallet and watching one on the opposite side pop up. Once kids have seen this cause-and-effect in action, they will enjoy predicting which peg will pop up next. As they develop hand-eye coordination and fine motor skills, they will also be learning numbers and colors by counting the pegs and naming each color as it pops up. The Melissa & Doug Deluxe Pounding Bench Wooden Toy makes a great gift for kids 2 to 4 years. This product measures 5.25" H x 10" L x 5" W and includes a sturdy wooden mallet. Add the Melissa & Doug Wooden Latches Board to round out the developmental play and learning experience.
