Summer is here, which means it is time to break out of all your children's summer toys, for lots of fun in the sun! Melissa & Doug has all the toys to make it happen, for all ages and genders! Melissa & Doug originally started their business out of Doug's parents house, and it grew and expanded into the fabulous company that it is today! While on their site you can search through many different categories that are perfect for playing outdoors.
I recently had the opportunity to review four products from Melissa & Doug Sunny Patch Line of Sand Toys. I was very excited because my children needed some new toys to play with in the sand, so these couldn't have come at a better time! My 2 year olds face immediately lit up as soon as he saw it and then he asked me, "Mine?" He couldn't have been happier, and my seven year old kept asking me to go to the park. So...the very next day me, my mother and my two oldest sons and I headed for the park.
We went to a park located right down the street because I knew for sure it has a Sand Box. Luckily for us there wasn't any other children in the sand box, so they had it all to their selves. Sunny Patch Sand Toys provided my children with many hours of fun outdoor play time, and make a great activity for summer time. You can purchase Sand Play Toys on Melissa & Doug website here They also offer some other great toys for summertime fun including: Discovery Nature, Bubble Fun, Gardening Tools and Accessories, Water, Water Everywhere, Playhouses, Tents, Tunnels and Chairs, Fun and Games, Picnic, Camping and Sleepover Fun, and of course, Sand Play. Be sure to check out all of their other fun toys including Food Play, Classic Toys, Stuffed Animals and Toys, Trains and many more. Below, is a list of items I was sent to review with my sons.
Clicker Crab Pail and Shovel - This is by far the cutest sand pail and shovel that I have ever seen! This sturdy bucket features a big smiley face that is sure to make your little one smile back. My children enjoyed scooping sand into the pail with the matching crab shaped scoop. You can purchase the Clicker Crab Shovel and Pail for only $10.00 on the Melissa and Doug Website.
Seaside Sidekicks Sand Baking Set - My kids enjoyed pretending to make yummy treats with this fun sand baking set. They loved using the adorable octopus whisk to whip up some fun! The "Mixing" bowl is topped with a turtle lid that doubles as a sifter. You can purchase the Seaside Sidekicks Sand Baking Set for only $14.99.
Seaside Sidekicks Sand Molding Set - This wonderful set of sand molds includes a Fish, Crab, Starfish, and Seahorse hiding underneath a green turtle. Because they all fit into the turtle it makes them convenient to store! My children's imagination ran wild as they had fun pretending the seahorse was swimming around in the pail full of sand. You can purchase the Seaside Sidekicks Sand Molding Set for $10.00
Seaside Sidekicks Sand Cupcake Set - This 12 piece creative set will provide your children with a lot of fun and entertainment. My kids had a ton of fun filling the cupcakes with batter(sand), and then placing them in the tray to bake. If your at the beach your children can decorate them with seashells. This will really encourage imagination and fun sand play. The entire set can be stored in a mesh bag that is included with the set. You can purchase the Seaside Sidekicks Sand Cupcake Set for only $14.99.
Sand Play is important because it helps children develop many important skills including: Physical, social-emotional, and mental (cognitive). Melissa & Doug is generously providing one of my lucky readers with all four of the above toys.
