preschoolers LOVE these ... I bought three sets!

I use these in a big group setting (20-30 kids), with preschoolers from age 16 months through five years. The magnetic scoop fits the ice cream scoops perfectly; kids understand the concept, yet still have to work with fine motor control to be successful. It is just challenging enough to accomplish that they really stop to work it out in their thinking and physical skills. The other playgroup behavior we are working on is that we are pretending; this isn't real ice cream, so we all need to practice NOT licking the toy. And this is something preschoolers WILL understand, with a little help and direction.

Daughter loves this set!

My 3.5 yr old daughter got this for Xmas. She LOVES this set (also got the cookie set). This is great for dramatic play and fine motor skills. Even her dad will play with her using this set (guess it's manlier than a tea party!). As usual the quality is great from M&D. The scoopers work beautifully and are able to withstand little ones play. The only negatives is that there are only 2 comes (wished you could purchase additional ones separately) and that the container doesn't fit the scoops and the cones. Negatives do not impact play at all though. Well worth the money!

This toy is a huge hit with everyone, all of my grandchildren love it!

All 3 of my grandchildren LOVE this ice cream cone toy. My granddaughter had come over one day when I wasn't expecting her and her mom & she caught sight of this toy at my house. She asked who it was for & I told her it was for her cousin, my 2 year old grandson, for his birthday. She asked if she could have the same thing for her birthday so I said of course I would get her the same thing. Now whenever the 3 grandchildren play, they all make ice cream cones for everyone. Two of them are 6, the other is 2.

Ice Cream; Yum!

I bought this for my two-year old granddaughter for her second birthday and she loves it! She is getting the hang of the magnetic ice cream scoop, and has added "chocolate, vanilla, strawberry and mint-chocolate chip to her vocabulary. She loves serving us the cones and sundaes she makes while fighting off her five-year old sister, who loves the set as much as she does. The set is brightly colored and durable. Very well designed for little hands.

This is honestly my go to present when I get invited to a little one's birthday party now. I purchased one for my niece for Christmas and she loved it. I then was invited to another little 3 year old's birthday and she loved it too. Just like any other Melissa & Doug, it's very well made. The scoops have little magnets in it, which adds to the fun. I would highly recommend for any little kids that like to play cooking/kitchen

The grandkids love playing with this.

Our grandchildren (almost 3 and almost 6) loved playing with this so much at a local indoor playground that I got them their own. Also built a TV tray mounted "ice cream store" from foam core board. They got tons of play out of the set when here last. I might have to get another so they don't fight over who get the strawberry ice cream though! From what I saw at the playground, the weakest part is probably the scoop magnet piece that moves. That apparently can break off (theirs were missing on our second visit). The rest seems pretty indestructible.

This Melissa and Doug set is AMAZING! Right off the bat

We ordered this set for our 4.5 year old daughter and 2.5 year old son to replace the cheaper plastic set we'd purchased for their play kitchen a few years ago. We should have just bought this set to begin with! This Melissa and Doug set is AMAZING! Right off the bat, we noticed that it comes with TWO scoopers, TWO ice cream cones, and four scoops of ice cream - perfect for siblings who struggle with sharing from time to time. So far they've played with the set for a couple of hours, and we've had it for one day. Both kids were fascinated by the magnetic component of the set, and while our younger child struggles with the release handle concept, our preschooler felt very grown-up as she "scooped" the ice cream and placed it on top of the cone with the scooper's release function. It's been fun to watch them enjoy this set! It seems sturdy and well-made; hopefully it will last for years to come and provide more hours of imaginative play for our kids and their friends.

High quality toy. We love it.

Melissa & Doug make wonderful toys. Solidly built and quality plastics. And the cones in this set are wood. Magnets hold the plastic ice cream scoops to the cones. And the ice cream scoopers actually work. Very clever and cute toy. My daughter is 3 and loves this little play set.

The perfect addition to a well stocked kitchen

I gave my granddaughter a Kidkraft play kitchen and have been slowly stocking it with pots and pans and play food. This set is adorable. Pros: Simple enough for a three year old to use, she asks one or two and scoops your ice cream. The scoops are kid friendly and shareable Stores in the ice cream carton Magnets keep the ice cream on the cone Comes with tips for educational play Cons: just wish there were 4 cones included As an online shopper I rely heavily on reviews left by others when trying to decide what to buy so I try to leave useful reviews for those products that I feel strongly about. Please let me know if you find my review helpful Thanks so much!

this is the kids favorite.. he is 3 and she is 5

Oh my goodness.. this is the kids favorite.. he is 3 and she is 5.. the scoops connect to the ice cream.. It has magnets.. the scoops attach to the cones and stay because of the magnets.. and you can stack a couple on each other. The cones are wood and well made and the Ice Cream is very well made.. they have hit the tile floor a dozen times and no problem. This so much fun!!
