Melissa & Doug Deluxe Wood Lacing Sneaker

Product Description

This learning activity will tickle kids down to their toes! The sturdy wooden high-top sneaker is the perfect toy for kids to learn how to lace and tie, over and over again. Measures 8.5"H x 5.1"W x 3.6"D.

Customer Buzz
My daughter was struggling to learn how to tie her shoes in kindergarden this year. And we had tried using other methods to teach her but the shoe lace on this shoe is great. It's thick enough for her small hands to manage and within the first day of trying, she learned how to tie a shoe. A friend recommened this shoe to me and I recommend it to everybody I know.
I wish it had come with either the "bunny Ears" or the "around the tree" directions but it didn't come with either. I had to get online and find them since its been 20 some odd years since I learned how to tie my shoes and couldn't remember how they went. We tried both with my daughter but she grasped the "around the tree" best.

Customer Buzz
I thought this was a great way to learn how to tie shoes. It's a sturdy, fun toy. Would recommend.

Customer Buzz
the girl I gave it to, didn't take to it very well. Of course it is not as fun as a talking teddy bear. She is 3,5 years old. She may start using it after a while.

Customer Buzz
My daughter asked for this for months. We finally bought one for her for Christmas, and she loves it! It's great---colorful, sturdy, and big enough for little fingers to manipulate. She'll be tying her own shoes in no time!!


Customer Buzz
First I'll say that, like anything else I've ever purchased by Melissa & Doug, this item is very well-made. Very chunky, very sturdy, nice weight, smooth to touch. However, the shoe was not exactly what I was expecting. I assumed, since the product description mentioned "teaches your child", that there would be some sort of accompanying pamphlet, containing tips/tricks for the child. There is just the shoe and that's it. So I would consider this to be just a "practice shoe", nothing more. Had I known this before, I would not have purchased this item, since my son can use any old shoe in our house to practice on.

Customer Buzz
This lace up sneaker is awesome. After I convinced my 4 year old he could not wear it, it has been a great learning tool. It is really good sized and easy to teach and practice on. Another quality Melissa and Doug product!

Customer Buzz
I bought this toy after the twins were already well into difficulties with tying their shoes. We had been struggling over and over again for months with no sucess on the shoe tying front. We had taught them song and different techniques, tried exploying nija tying methods to make them remeber, everythig to get shoe tying down, to no avail. Finally, I thought maybe this shoe would assist by providing a different angle for learning. This helped one of the boys by displaying a majr flaw in his tying and BINGO he's gotten it every sinnce and now the show is no good. The other twin is autistic so keeps trying to wearing the show while tying it, so this cuases a whole set of individual set of problems. The show is useful for showing him especially how show tying works but it still a foreign concepts.
The break down: For the average kid who's learning to tie their shoes buy this right away before they get it a clue and it becomes obsolete. FOr a special needs kids, this is a useful hands on tool if you can get them to stop trying to wear it.

What We Think

Fun Factor:

Durability:

(what this means)

The Good: All-wood dollhouse and accessories are charming and fun, as well as functional and durable.

The Bad: A little bit of care needs to be taken to keep house in good working order.

In a Nutshell: Beautiful, heirloom-quality, all-wood dollhouse and accessories provide hours of high-quality, imaginative play for children 3 and up.
At a Glance

Ages: 3 and up
Requires: Phillips screwdriver
Easy Set Up; Superior Design Features
The dollhouse itself requires adult assembly, but this takes less than an hour thanks in part to clear, easy-to-follow directions. The set comes with a Hex key, but you'll need a Phillips screwdriver on hand to finish the project.

The completed dollhouse sports a cheery exterior with lavender and pink detailing. Its handcrafted, hand-painted appearance and all-wood construction give it a charming and timeless feel. Five working doors, lattice-style windows, and two balconies provide charming finishing touches. Turn the house around to view its five spacious rooms on three floors. Two wooden staircases connect the floors; they're movable and removable, which gives the house's configuration added versatility.

The house measures 24.5 x 28 x 15.5 inches when assembled.

Delightful, Imaginative Accessories
The dollhouse's five rooms are furnished with plenty of all-wood, hand-painted furniture: a living room set, complete with sofa, ottoman, coffee table, and two easy chairs; a kitchen counter and stovetop unit; a dining table with 4 dining chairs; a bedroom set including a queen-sized bed, a dresser, a cabinet, and an armoire; and a bathroom set with a bathtub, sink, and toilet. With working cabinet doors, softly rounded edges, and pink and lavender details, the furniture construction is charming, durable, and safe.

The dolls themselves -- a mother, father, two children, and an infant Ealso echo the house's folksy, handcrafted quality. They're simple, functional, and durable, with their wooden heads, hands, and wide clog-shaped feet, sweet, painted on smiley faces, glued-on yarn hair, and real cloth clothes. The limbs are bendable, so you can position the dolls to sit perfectly in the dining chairs, on the sofa, and even on the little hand-painted toilet. A few minor drawbacks: the real cloth outfits cannot be removed, to the disappointment of our young child tester; and although they'll definitely stand up to the play of young children, their yarn hair and twistable limbs might not last as long as the house and furniture will.

Durability and Care
We found the Multi-level Wooden Dollhouse to be pretty sturdy, but care needs to be taken to make sure it remains in good working order. For example, it cannot be lifted by its roof, as this will pull the top section right off. We found that it's best to carry the house from its bottom, rather than grasping any part of its sides, to make sure it stays intact. The painted exterior can also be relatively easily scratched, and an overly exuberant child could also damage the hinged doors. However, if just a little bit of care is taken with this beautiful house, it will weather time very well and can be passed down to future generations.

Customer Buzz
this is a sweet little doll house. it was simple for my husband to assemble. My kids love it and actually my 10 month old plays at it as much as my 3 year old. the furniture is a little "basic", but we plan to order more melissa and doug furniture and people in the future.

Customer Buzz
Doll house was a big hit with my 4 year old grand daughter.

Extra furniture was no good. It was not only damaged but also the wrong scale,
so don't bother with it. It's intended for Melissa & Doug's Victorian doll house. Amazon did a quick refund. I found a "Royal castle nursery set" by a different company that was the correct scale (I hope).

Customer Buzz
great dollhouse with furniture and dolls. my 3 year old loves it. and i love it because it is not associated with a brand - barbie, dora, etc. she made up her own names for the dolls and imagines up amazing situations for them. a blank slate for a budding imagination. also, a friend suggested this is the perfect dollhouse to interior design - add wallpaper to walls, paint furniture, hang curtains. a great project for the mother and daughter when she is a bit older. and you can't beat the price - less than $[...] during christmas!!! the roof was a bit cracked, but i called melissa and doug and they mailed me a new roof right away, so not problem or hassle there.

Customer Buzz
I bought this for my 5yr old daughter for Christmas this year and I was so excited I found it. It was on sale at the time for about $[...]. I needed to find some sort of dollhouse for her because it was one of the things she REALLY wanted. It was about $[...] less than the Fisher Price Loving Family house and included all the furniture, whereas I couldn't find a dollhouse that included so much from anyone else. It took me about 30 minutes to set it up and the only thing that isn't the greatest is the attic/roof comes off very easily. The good side is that it also goes back on easily and my daughter can do that herself. It's heavy, sturdy and actually made of wood. Very girly and perfect for a 5 yr old. She can rearrange rooms to her liking as well as the stair cases. SHe doesn't really like the dolls that came with it, but she uses it with her polly pocket dolls. I'm very happy with it, and so is she - which i suppose is the important thing, right?


Customer Buzz
Easy to put together except for the roof, it didn't line up right. The balconies come off really easily too. I tried glue but must have not used enough! But my kids love it. I have a 3yr old, 2 yr old and 8 mo old. The house is even safe for the baby. No small parts and all the pieces are durable. We have really enjoyed it. And yes the house comes with a family even though the box doesn't say so. I really like Melissa & Doug products.

Customer Buzz
I bought this for my 4 year old daughter and my 4 year old niece...it is so much more aesthetically pleasing than those plastic dollhouses that are out there, and it reminds me of a toy that was made in a woodshop by a relative or neighbor. The dollhouse comes with a family and some furniture, as well as stairs, so there is plenty of opportunity for pretend play. For a young child to get the most out of this, a parent or caregiver should play along with them. I did try and move it from the top, and part of the roof came off; it was easy enough to put it back, but this house should be moved from the bottom. All in all, a very lovely dollhouse for a great price. My daughter and I are enjoying it!

Customer Buzz
Bought this for my 2 year old Daughter for Xmas. I think it's a very well put together doll house kit. I put off the build (While I built all the other xmas presents that came as a kit) which turned out to be completely unnecessary. It was very very simple to put together with very simple and easy to follow instructions. In addition to the included screws/tools you will need a Phillips screwdriver.

I wasn't sure how good the furniture/Dolls were going to be for the price but it's all actually very very nice and not at all what I was expecting.
That said, it appears the price we paid may have been a mistake since the current listing shows almost 3 times the price we paid. Anyway even at the current price I would recommend this doll house over some of the more pricey plastic moulded ones.


Customer Buzz
This dollhouse is very easy to assemble and the pieces are all made of wood and durable. My daughter who is 2 enjoys taking all the furniture out and rearranging everthing.

The only drawback is that some of the pieces really need to be glued on e.g. balconies. Otherwise, they are not very stable.

Customer Buzz
I got this dollhouse on sale for a great price. For the price I paid it was a GREAT DEAL! My 3 year-old daughter loves it and plays with it constantly. I am happy with the overall quality with the dollhouse- it is large, it is all wood (no plastic), and it assembles easily. It comes with furniture and dolls so it is an all-in-one purchase. The dolls don't stand well and are a little goofy looking but they aren't plastic which is a wonderful thing. The window ledges and the front steps come off to easily and the "movable" staircases are too big (they either hang off the edge of the house or run into the walls) but these are minor infractions that don't bother my daughter. Melissa and Doug makes excellent toys and I am very happy with this purchase.

Customer Buzz
very nice product... my grandaughter loves it.. plays with it all the time.... would love more melissa & doug products

Melissa and Doug 100 Piece Wood Blocks Set

Product Description

Kids can use their creativity and imagination to build all sorts of things with this 100-piece set. The structures are only as tall and wide as the child's imagination! With endless possibilities, it's sure to provide hours of engaged play.

Customer Buzz
Bought this for my son. WOW! He instantly opened it and started building. Encourages imagination. Fun and colorful. Now i just need to find a way to keep the pieces together to avoid losing parts. =)

Customer Buzz
This is a great way to "UNPLUG" your child.
My son is 4 years old and he loves to sit with me and build with these blocks. I bought them in combination with Melisa and Doug's other standard block set. The funny thing is that I have much older children from a previous marriage that used to play with the same blockS and they produced the same result. Best toy I have purchased for my son this year

Customer Buzz
these blocks are nice. bright colors and fun shapes but they are half the size of the haba blocks that i have.

Customer Buzz
My two year old really likes these blocks. He is just now figuring out what to do with them. I was a little disappointed that these blocks are much smaller than I had imagined. But they are working out fine since his fingers are still so small. My boy likes all the unique shapes and bright colors.

Customer Buzz
I bought these for my daughter (almost 3). She really likes them. The only downside is that the paint they used on them makes the blocks really slippery. They work fine on a table, but on the carpet, they pretty much just slide right off each other. On a lighter note, the size is perfect, they are not huge like some blocks so they are easy to store.

Customer Buzz
Melissa and Doug 100 Piece Wood Blocks Set
Bought these for my grandson, even with all the other things electronics and such he still enjoys the fascination of just building "stuff". It gives them time to use their minds.

Customer Buzz
Bright, colorful, just right for little hands. He's been having a great time building new things and pretending. Just a good, simple, basic toy.

Customer Buzz
This blocks are so colorfull and durable and the shapes help to be more creative...excellent learning blocks

Customer Buzz
My 4 year old grandson, and his parents, were thrilled when he receieved these blocks yesterday. We'd been unable to find colored wooden blocks in any local stores. I was happy to see that the yellow blocks were just as vibrant as the red and blue. In the picture I saw they looked rather pale.

What I wish I'd known prior to purchase is the dimensions of the blocks. They are smaller and thinner than I had anticipated. That being said, their size has not diminished my grandson's enjoyment one iota. He likes to build roads with the blocks and can't wait to build the castle pictured on the box the blocks came in. (As soon as we can find a time when his little sister isn't around to knock it down, that is.)

I do like the variety of shapes as it helps him to learn more about triangles, squares, rectangles, etc. The small size of the blocks is the only thing that detracted from the purchase. Otherwise they earned an A+ from this grandma!

Customer Buzz
My 20 month old likes them but gets frustrated when her towers topple over. Another few months she'll like them a lot more.
