As with all Melissa and Doug play products this is a nice quality set. Saw this on Miss Rachel and had to get it for my grandkids. They love it. Great for imagination and exposes them to all the good nutritious foods.

    • Great Quality Play Food!

This is our second set of play food we have ordered from Melissa & Doug that can be “cut” and connects back together. Our son loved the first set so much we had to buy more. The Velcro lasts well and is easy to reattach. It helps teach fine motor skills & is a safe environment for kids to “help cook”. Provides a long time of entertainment! Bonus that it fits well in our play kitchen. ... show more

    • 2 year old loves this!
Style: Retail Version Pattern Name: Play Food Set
It can be a challenge to find toys that effectively keep my 2 year old entertained. We do very little screen time, so I'm kind of reliant on toys to have any amount of space. This toy is great! It has kept her occupied for hours. I hope the Velcro holds up well!

    • Perfect Montessori Toy - Practical Life Skills, Math, and Vocabulary
Style: Retail Version Pattern Name: Play Food Set
I ordered this for my 2.5 year old daughter who is VERY curious about the kitchen, cooking, etc. She has a play kitchen and tons of plastic "play food", however, I have found that she loses interest in them quickly overall (the play kitchen keeps her attention longer if/when we allow her to use real water in the pots and non-draining sink...). If this sounds like your child, read on! The Melissa & Doug Cutting Food set has been a total A+!! It does actually make a crunch sound when she cuts because of the Velcro between the slices which she seems to really enjoy. I am always leery of buying sets with so many pieces because she just doesn't seem to want to use them for their intended purpose, or the sets don't appeal to her. That is NOT the case with this set!! She loves it for what it is! The pieces have a nice weight because they are constructed from wood. It comes with a wooden knife that has a realistic shape that's rounded at the bottom just enough that it doesn't seem that it would cause damage or scratching if it is used on surfaces other than the cutting board it comes with. My 9 year old son even likes the set! He also likes using them to practice chopping and cutting (he started learning how to make basic recipes in the real kitchen a year ago). But, the thing he really enjoys about it, in his words, "using it to do factions"! It gives him a nice visual for what a 1/4 means when he can chop the pepper into quarters and he now understands reducing basic fractions because of this set - when he chops the pepper or watermelon in half, he started by calling one of the halves 2/4, but visually it made sense to him that 2/4 is also 1/2! If your child or children are in a Montessori School or Daycare, I highly recommend purchasing this set - they will love it! It is great for building and practicing practical life skills. It comes in its own wooden tray (the tray does not have handles, but it is an appropriate size and has ample sides to keep the items from spilling out) making clean up and storage easy for even the youngest kids. I saw in some of the reviews that people complained about the smell - there was no chemical or paint smell to ours, it only has a slight wood smell. My best guess is that Melissa & Doug changed the products that they use on it since those reviews were written. The Velcro seems very good, although we'll see how it will hold up to multiple kids over several years. You could probably replace the Velcro with some effort, if it is needed - but I don't know that it would be the easiest job. ... show more

    • Excellent toy for toddlers!
Style: Retail Version Pattern Name: Play Food Set
We bought this for my daughter when she was 18 months, and she absolutely loves this toy. She "cuts" food multiple times a day.. and is a pro at it! At first, I had to show her how to cut the food.. and she would get frustrated easily when she couldnt do it on her own, but it didnt take long and she mastered the skill of cutting. The food items are very durable. I do have two drawbacks to this toy though: - First, my daughter plays with this toy multiple times a day. She is a pro at cutting it up.. but at 22 months, she still doesnt know how to put the food back together. That means, she cuts everything up, and there is a HUGE pile of broken food on the floor! I have to put them all back together for her so she can cut up again. Hopefully she will learn how to do this on her own soon.. - Second, the velcro is starting to wear out on some of the food. They still stick together.. but not as tightly as they did when the toy was new. So, I'm a little concerned that we have only had this toy for less than 5 months and the velcro has already started to wear down the "stickiness" for the food stick together. Would be better if they were magnets instead of velcro.. Overall, very good toy though.. and keeps my daughter entertained for a long time - highly recommend this toy. ... show more

Got as a Christmas gift for my almost 2 year old and they loved them! Wood is smooth so doesn’t splinter off, velcro connections work great, fairly easy to cut for kids, cutting board is sturdy, and colors are fun.
