son doesn't play with it, May 3, 2010

This toy is very cute. The only quams I have with it are that my son simply doesn't play with it. He played with it for the first day and shows little interest in it now. I bought this for him because he loves cheeseburgers, so i bought them thinking he would love to role play. not so much, but he is only 2...so hpefully he'll play more with it! The velcro isn't super strong, but it works.

       my boys love it and all melissa and doug food toys!!!, April 27, 2010

i have two boys (4 and 2.5) who absolutely LOVE all their melissa and doug food toys. this is one of many items that we've ended up getting them because they're still obsessed with making every visitor lunch, dinner, dessert and everything in between. they've even forgotten all about the previous reward of a purchased tv show (on itunes) at the end of a good week (we use the melissa and doug magnetic responsibility chart which they also LOVE) and have decided that it's worth the wait to accumulate enough to buy a new food toy. for their age and energy level i find this to be pretty amazing :) i'm also finding that my VERY VERY picky oldest son is actually trying new things to eat because he is so fascinated by the act of cooking. i feel like i'm a melissa and doug addict at this point! i would say the only down side is that they started getting their toys made over in china instead of the US like before, but so far i haven't been disappointed by the quality and the only food set that has been more plastic than i was hoping was the ice cream parlor set, but (knock on wood) they haven't demolished it yet, so i am sticking with 5 stars for all the sets we have so far!!! :)

       Perfect first food playset for toddler, March 6, 2010

I wanted to buy my 18 month old son a set of durable & safe play food for his new little kitchen. This set has been perfect! He loves playing with the different veggie toppings (esp the pickles) and cutting apart the "velcro sandwich." Very durable & show no signs of wear after over a month of daily rough-play.

       Great toy!, February 15, 2010

Like all Melissa and Doug wooden food and kitchen, this Sandwich set is terrific. It was a Christmas gift for my now 21mo old granddaughter who absolutely loves it. The pieces have Velcro on them so they can be stacked into a wooden sandwich. She also loves the birthday cake set. The individual slices of cake, candles, and toppings have Velcro, too. The pieces in both these sets are almost indestructible and stay colorful. It has helped her in both vocabulary development and imaginative play.
