Toys and Games Reviews of Melissa & Doug Birthday Party Birthday Cake
Customer Review: Lots of fun
Summary: 5 Stars
This was a gift for our two year old grandaughter. She already has the Melissa and Doug Pizza set and was excited to get the birthday cake set. The pizza set has had real "staying power" and is one of her favorite kitchen toys. When her male cousins visit, they enjoy the pizza set, too. I expect that the cake set will be just as much fun.
I rated this high on educational value because the set lends itself to many sorting and matching activities. The children enjoy taking "orders" and then making custom cakes and pizzas. It could easily be used to introduce the idea of fractions, although we have not played with it with that in mind.
I am impressed with the quality of these toys.
Customer Review: Who doesn't like birthday cake?!?!
Summary: 5 Stars
My 26mth old son loves this cake. We bought it as a gift for 2weeks of no potty accidents. He has played with it constantly, making all kinds of cakes and singing to his stuffed animals. He shares cake with everyone. Playdate was exceptional this week too. Pieces are good for fine motor, bilateral coodination, commnication, speech, social development. I am a firm believer a toy needs to have some educational value and this one hits on just about all toddler development area. I imagine he will play with it for a long time. He's a big fan of birthday/holiday celebrations. Can't comment on durability yet, but if it like the rest of the toys from M&D, it will last a long time.Customer Review: Very cute!
Summary: 3 Stars
Both of my children, 3 and 1, play with this toy quite a bit. It is very durable and cute. I love the simplicity of this product. There are a lot of pieces that could get lost and I always play with it with them because it is not recommended for under 3, but 1 year old insists he can play too. The pieces for the cake topping are small and round and could be a choking hazard. We like to practice singing happy birthday and blowing out candles. Makes fun for imaginary play with kitchen items. Would recommend a container with a lid for storage as the box that it comes with is open on top and "spills" easily. Overall great product and will buy more of these for my children.Customer Review: Toy is exactly what you would expect
Summary: 4 Stars
I'm very happy I got this toy for my [...] son. He enjoys playing with it. Maybe not the proper way, but his way and as long as he is having fun that is all that matters. I do wish that the candle flames came off. It would be nice if they built the candle as two pieces (one piece candle and the second piece the flame). I believe another person thought this as well. Overall good toy, well built. I'm not sure how long it will hold my sons interest. But I think it is a toy that if stored away when he gets tired of it, it will eventually come back out again someday when he wants to play with it again. I would recommend this as well as many other Melissa and Doug toys.Customer Review: Continual fun for ages 2+
Summary: 5 Stars
Of course kids are all different, this toy may not hold the interest of a child with little interest in pretend play cooking. However, I think the vast majority of children will LOVE it. I have a 2 yr old & a 4 yr old & both play with it constantly. Younger ones may not comprehend so much that they are decorating a birthday cake, but the facination of adding and subtracting the decorations (velcro candles, candies, strawberries) is great. I think the construction is good; nothing broken yet. Only down side to it is collecting up all those circles (candies/strawberries) & candles! I'd recommend this gift for boy and girl (I've got both).
