Melissa & Doug Deluxe Ice Cream Parlor Set

Melissa & Doug Deluxe Ice Cream Parlor Set Review



Melissa & Doug Deluxe Ice Cream Parlor Set Feature

  • Magnetic play set includes four magnetic ice cream scoops, two cones and two magnetic scoopers
  • Stack and scoop
  • Enrich a child's imagination
  • Comes in a playful ?freezer? storage case
  • Exceptional Quality and Value
A sweet treat for a child's imagination, the Melissa & Doug Ice Cream Parlor Set lets children make believe they're running an old-fashioned ice cream parlor. The play set comes with realistic looking, stackable ice cream scoops in four "flavors," two sturdy wooden cones, and two scoopers. Designed for children ages three and up, this charming toy requires no batteries and no assembly, making it a refreshing inspiration for your children's imaginative play.

Ice Cream Parlor Set
    Ages: 3+
What We Think

Fun factor:
Durability:
Educational factor:
Novelty factor:

The Good: Toy offers sturdy construction that's versatile enough to last several years.

The Challenging: We wish there were more pieces for easier group play; also, the wooden cones are a bit heavy for younger children.

In a Nutshell: Realistic ice cream cone playset offers plenty of inspiration for a child's imaginative play.


Make a yummy, triple-scoop cone creation with the Ice Cream Parlor Set from Melissa & Doug. View larger.


This simple, delicious-looking toy is fun and helps develop motor skills. View larger.
Scoop 'N' Stack
The Melissa & Doug Ice Cream Set features an abundance of nostalgic ice cream parlor charm, starting with its sturdy red-and-white, striped storage container. The set includes four realistic molded plastic ice cream scoops in chocolate, vanilla, strawberry, and mint chocolate chip "flavors." Two wooden cones and two plastic scoopers with painted wooden handles round out the set.

The scoopers, cones, and four ice cream scoops are all magnetic, so the scoopers can actually pick up the ice cream scoops and place them on the cones. They easily release by pressing the lever, like a real ice cream scooper. Magnets in the cones keep the scoops in place, even with a quadruple-dipped cone. (All magnets are located on the interior of the pieces, so there's no danger of the magnets breaking off and posing a serious risk to small children.)

Almost Good Enough to Eat
This set carries realistic, authentic touches, from the classic ice cream scoopers to the waffle design on the wooden cones. The cones look so good that our child tester almost fooled an adult into thinking her cone was real.

With its simple design and sturdy build, the Melissa & Doug Ice Cream Set gives children ideal props to inspire their imaginations -- no batteries, bells, or whistles to limit the possibilities. The toy can also aid in developing motor skills every time a young child uses the ice cream scooper to stack and balance the scoops.

But it's a toy that older children will enjoy, too. The toy's sturdy, quality construction helps ensure that it will last through many years of play. Because it comes with two scoopers, this toy is ideal for group play, although some testers wished that the set had a few more pieces.
