Ice Cream Parlor Set – Melissa and Doug – Review and Giveaway

Play Food

Melissa and Doug Ice Cream Parlor Set


Ice Cream Parlor Set


It’s really been an enjoyable summer watching the grand-kids interact with each other.

Slugger just celebrated his first birthday and is really trying to keep up with his older sister, ‘Lil Moomette.

My husband and I got the kids a playhouse as a joint birthday gift.  We liked to watch how our own kids developed while using their little imaginations during unstructured playtime.

Melissa & Doug LogoI was recently offered the opportunity to review the Ice Cream Parlor Set from Melissa & Doug’s Play Food line.

What we like about this enchanting set is that pretend play encourages ‘Lil Moomette to use her imagination as well as aid in identifying her colors, while encourages sharing.    The set includes:

  • 2 ice cream cones
  • 4 colorful ice cream scoops in different flavors/colors (strawberry/pink; mint/green; chocolate/brown and vanilla/white
  • 2 scoopers
  • It comes nicely packaged in a fun freezer case.

This toy certainly brings back memories for me too, because one of my first jobs in high school was scooping ice cream in the summer!

Melissa & Doug toys are an excellent value for their price, realistically designed and are a wonderful addition to any home school or pre-school curriculum.

Other items from the Play Food line include: Produce Farm-Fresh Fruit; Slice and Bake Cookie Set; Birthday Party; Sandwich Making Set and Sushi Slicing Play Set.

This is a toy that is versatile for not only outdoor play, but also those rainy and winter days when the kids are cooped-up inside.

Melissa & Doug also offer Arts and Crafts; Stuffed Animals and Toys; Trains, Vehicles as well.

Melissa & Doug toys are CPSIA compliant.

    I love that Melissa & Doug do exstenive safety tests on their toys. Makes me feel safe buying their products.
    Example “we specifically test our paints and coatings very frequently, to be sure our toys meet or exceed government recommendations limiting heavy metals and lead in children’s items.”

    Just checked out their site. I always loved their products, but how no clue how many different items they sell. I didn’t know that they sold such realistic looking animals. My son has a fire truck themed room and I always wanted to find him a large realistic stuffed Dalmatian to go in it and they have one! Super cool

    I found this safety statement. I would buy from them based on this alone:

    No matter how carefully we design our products, we believe there’s no substitute for TESTING, TESTING, and MORE TESTING. The key to assuring the safety of our products is not simply insisting our factories follow our instructions, but to go one step further and AUDIT, INSPECT, AND TEST, not only once, but at various phases of the production process. This is something we’ve always done.

    This is such a cute set. I’d love to win this for my daughter and sons. They love to pretend, play resturant waitresses and waiters and take our orders for lunch and dinner. This would really be fun for them.
    Thanks so much.

    I subscribed. I think this quote from their site sums up why I appreciated the company’s customer-driven philosophy:

    “We’ve always welcomed customer suggestions, and we continually strive to make improvements to our products. We’re honored by the faith you place in us and view it as our responsibility to continue to earn your trust in the years to come!”

    It means they take customer suggestions and integrate them into their product development, which is commendable.

    Melissa & Doug started 20 years ago (CONGRATS!!) in the basement of the home Doug grew up in. How cool is that?

    My 3 year old is obsessed with ice cream. Real, fake, doesn’t matter. This set would make her day and her birthday is coming up next month. Great timing!

    i subscribed to your newsletter 1st, then when i visited the Mellisa and Doug website i learned they ” Started in 1988 in their garage, Melissa & Doug® has something for everyone, with nearly 800 unique and exciting products for children of all ages!”

    also i would like to win bc i think my little girl would enjoy having some ice cream to play with in her pretend kitchen we bought her last year!

    I subscribe. I like that they do extensive safety testing on their products and I’d really like to win this for my 15-month old…she’ll love it!
