Bake Up Something Good
----------------------
The Slice and Bake Cookie Set features a dozen cookies that are
packaged in a cardboard tube that looks just like a tube of
cookie dough from the grocery store. Because they're held
together with Velcro, the cookies slide out in one piece. Use the
wooden toy to "slice" the cookies apart -- the Velcro makes
a satisfying slicing sound when it separates. The child can then
place the cookies on the cookie sheet and pretend the cookies are
baking, making sure to hold the "hot" cookie sheet with the oven
mitt once they're done. (Note that the toy kitchen utensils are
not meant for use with real food or with real kitchen
appliances.)
Once the cookies are done baking, it's decorating time! The 12
"vanilla" and "chocolate" frosting pieces attach to the cookies
with Velcro. They are painted with different, yummy looking
sprinkles, candy pieces, and icing patterns, so your child can
create a variety of different looking cookies. After the
decorating is done, your child can serve them up with the
included wooden toy spatula.
Perfect for preschool-age children, this toy not only offers
plenty of rtunity for imaginary play, it also helps small
kids exercise their motor skills. Our preschool-age tester found
it challenging, yet fun, to slice the cookies apart. And while
our toy tester enjoyed playing with it independently, this toy
makes a great parent-and-child activity, too.
Adults can place custom orders for cookies, play counting and
matching games, and more. If you're at a loss for ideas, Melissa
& Doug includes interactive play ideas on the back of the cookie
sheet that help you encourage your child to learn while she
plays.
Sturdy, High-Quality Construction
---------------------------------
The Slice and Bake Cookie Set definitely has plenty of pieces,
so we were glad to find that the cardboard tube is big enough to
contain both the cookies and the toppings, making cleanup and
organization much easier. We also love the toy's sturdy wooden
construction that's built for plenty of rough play. And as with
all of their products, Melissa & Doug states that this toy is
made with non-toxic coatings and meets or exceeds US toy testing
standards.
