Melissa and Doug play food! Everything a little chef needs to prepare, cook and serve tempting meals and snacks! The extensive line of play food sets make it easy to shop, slice, dice, season, cook and serve whatever is on your young cook's menu.

So what better time to buy toy food than the summer time. Your children can be outside or in the house in their pretend kitchen for hours cooking with their food. Rather it's baking up some yummy cookies or setting the table with sushi. In the play food world there is everything you could want.

As a mom, I find that playing while learning is vital I sit and watched my children be creative in their individual unique ways. I teach my 3 year old and 2 year old using different techniques. The pieces that come with Melissa and Doug food are perfect for their motor skills, learning colors, learning shapes, and being creative. These sets can be played with in so many ways. Play food comes with so many pieces that they can and will hold your children's attention for hours!

There are so many different play food brands out there so why should you choose Melissa and Doug? I will give you three reasons that I believe will change your mind. These options are my own that I have seen while my kids play with there toys.

1. Melissa and Doug play food and food sets are made out of wood. In my option you can't beat wood. It's less likely to break, chip, crack, less of a chocking hazard than plastic, and it will last a lot longer than toys made out of other materials than wood. So you can't beat toys made out of wood especially food toys. We have a lot of toys made out of plastic and all they do is break. On the other hand all of our wood toys we have, have yet to break. So yes up front you my pay a little more but in the end it's worth the money because you have the toy a lot longer.

2. The attention to detail. Melissa and Doug Company pays close attentions to the detail of their play food. They don't just make fake food there make food that looks like the real thing. This is important to our children because it's teaching them while they play what the food they are going to eat and see in the store is really going to look like. Also the Melissa and Doug food is very close to the real size so no more over large strawberries and oranges.

3. They can be used for many generations. When you buy Melissa and Doug Food you are buying quality. This means your children today will enjoy the toy and then there children will also enjoy the same toys. To me this is so important because, we live in such a through a way society so the more you can reuse thing the better.
