Melissa and Doug Giveaway!

This Giveaway is now closed!  Winner to be announced on Friday!  (woot!)

Parker is just entering into the world of pretend play. He loves to wear his hero cape, drive his little wooden cars, and cook in his kitchen.

Yup. He cooks in his very own kitchen. We start ‘em out young at our house.

So when Melissa and Doug asked if I’d be willing to review their Grocery Store/Lemonade Stand, I knew this would fit perfectly into our new world of pretend play.

Our Melissa and Doug Grocery Store/Lemonade Stand came unassembled.

So I needed to recruit my slave labor.

heh.

The 14 year old had this assembled in a flash.

And, just like his Dad, he refused to even look at the directions.

sigh.

I’m impressed with how sturdy Melissa and Doug’s Grocery Store/Lemonade Stand is. This is a toy that can be handed down to the next in line!

It would be an excellent choice for a preschool or kindergarten classroom.

Not to mention how cute Parker looks standing behind it.

ahem.

The removable chalkboard signs are perfect for handwriting practice and also provide a fun way to provide matching opportunities with an object and and it’s written name.

The Grocery Store/Lemonade Stand would work with a wide variety of ages, and Parker’s big sister is always ready to step behind the counter and play with our Brave Hero!

The Grocery Store/Lemonade Stand has already received hours of play. We can’t wait for springtime to take it outside, reverse the banner so it reads ‘lemonade’ and make a bundle selling the ice cold drink to the neighbors!

Because the Grocery Store/ Lemonade Stand doesn’t come with fruits and vegetables, you’ll want to go here and look at the great selection Melissa and Doug offer!

Educational, well built, and versatile, Melissa and Doug have whipped up yet another recipe for fun with this beauty!

We have one Melissa & Doug Grocery Store/Lemonade Stand, retail value $129.99, to give away to one lucky reader.

Because I choose to blog with integrity: Melissa and Doug sent Parker a Grocery Store/Lemonade Stand for FREE.  It is kind of hard to write a review when you have never used something before.  He loves it.  We have the pictures to prove it.
