Toys and Games Reviews of Melissa & Doug Deluxe Grocery Store / Lemonade Stand
Customer Review: toy gets lots of play time
Summary: 4 Stars
There are two really fantastic things about this market stand: One is the reversible awning! My kids get SOOO excited about entrepreneurial ideas - so they love the Lemonade Stand idea! But they also want to sell some of the produce from the garden as a Farmer's Market using the other side of the awning. The chalkboards hanging from each bin are the other super fun feature. My kids aren't doing their math right yet, but they love to write prices and they will tally numbers and then make up a total. They are getting the concept.
As far as quality, there is something to be desired. The paint on the countertop is so thin you can see through it. The bins are also a really thin plastic - They might hold up if kids stood on them, but not if they were jumped on or anything. The pegs on the bins are also thin, and one has already broke off on the 7th day.
The assembly was time- consuming, but not too aggravating. The size seems right for toddler and preschool kids, but when the market stand is on the carpet the pile gets in the way of hanging the blackboard tags. Also note that the blackboard tags aren't really "chalkboard" -They are surfaced with a black plastic that I didn't think chalk would even write on, but in fact it has worked just fine for chalk, and cleans well too. Chalk does not come with the toy.
My husband built the most adorable kitchen for our kids, and we talked about using this idea to build a matching marketstand for the kids. After adding up the cost of purchasing bins and wood we realized our materials would cost almost as much as this stand, and we wouldn't be able to create an awning as nice. So it seemed best to purchase this stand rather than build our own. The blue color on the sides clashed with the colors on our kitchen, but we figured we could always repaint that - or build a new stand, but keep the bins and awning from this one. Overall it looks good, and is very fun. Not super quality, but to do better would cost a lot more.
