Bought this for a 2 year old.  I love all melissa and Doug toys but this one is just ok.  I think it's too hard for my 2 year old to cut the cake.  It's impossible with the spatula that is provided.  She enjoys the candles but after a short time she got bored.  Its an ok toy.

I LOVE Melissa and Doug toys! This one is particularly great because it makes the "taking the puzzle apart" part fun. Then the child has to learn to put it back together. It is a little trickier because there are no pictures underneath the pieces, but I like that because it makes my 2 yr old really have to think about it.

I love Melissa and Doug products, and this is no exception. These will be around for a long time and are perfect for any play kitchen.

We have a bunch of these books. The thing that I wish Melissa and Doug would change about them is using a sponge refillable brush instead of the one they have with the bristles. Little hands like my toddler's, don't have find motor skills yet, so he pushes so hard on the pages. The bristles have removed the white paint but a sponge wouldn't do that. Still very fun books. He loves playing with them in the car and at church.

Not a fan. I have a puzzle fanatic son who loves challenging himself. He enjoys these two, but I prefer the heavy stock cardboard variety of puzzles. When taking the pieces apart and out of the frame to start, they get stuck together and the wood has started to break in a couple places. I am missing a small chunk in one of the puzzles now. It's difficult to break apart the pieces to scramble up as well. They fit nice and snugly together, but that makes it difficult to pull apart. Melissa and Doug and Ravensburger both make nice quality cardboard puzzles, I'll stick with those in the future.

Like most toys from Melissa and Doug this is a quality piece. It's a durable wood and helps my child learn shapes and colors. It's a little more light weight than other M&D puzzles, but I still highly recommend it.

Love Melissa and Doug products but this is just ok. Pencils are very little and are hard to sharpen not to mention they get lost easy. Stamps are great but ink pad is small and hard to use. Wish they would have thought this one through!

Great gift for toddler. This was a gift for a two year old and she loves it. Melissa and Doug make quality toys that are made to last. They remind me of retro toys because the materials they use are high quality.

My Grandchildren enjoy these magnetic blocks but sometimes have difficulty with which side works with which side.
They've built some cute objects.

Melissa & Doug toys are durable, imaginative and creative.  I have always turned to their products when I'm at a loss for gift ideas and they always have something that you can never go wrong with.  They have peaked the interest of my grandchildren, always!

Melissa and Doug products are pretty good. the only downfall is if you put your hand over something other then the piece your trying to put it the sound for that piece will go off and by the time your putting in the piece you want it won't go off then.

and this one is no exception.  Have a few of the jumbo know puzzles - they are awesome for the toddler set.  My son started playing with these when he was about 11 months and played with them frequently until he was about 2 1/2.  Got a little too easy then but still enjoyed pulling them out when his cousins came over.  These have been thrown, chewed on (by both child and dog) and generally mistreated but still are in great condition.  I highly recommend any Melissa & Doug product as we haven't had a bad one yet!

Nice little magnet set, as usual from Melissa and Doug, but I found this same set at our local TJ Maxx for $3 cheaper, no big deal but now I know to look there first for these types of toys.

Cute puzzle. Toddler doesn't seem to like this as well as the actual puzzles that M&D make, but I think it's cute and that he'll grow into it. For now, he just likes using the pieces as building blocks.
