Melissa & Doug Prepare & Serve Pasta Set with Toy Food & Kids Play Kitchen Accessories, Montessori-Inspired Preschool Learning Toys for Girls & Boys 3+

This was so much better than I expected!! I am surprisingly very impressed! My granddaughter LOVES to pretend to cook so I upgraded her with a nice big wooden kitchen for Christmas. She already had several “accessories” from her last kitchen but nothing even remotely as “realistic” as this set is. She plays with this set the most, by far! When I bought this I had convinced myself it would be very overpriced and overrated but I was very wrong!! The set has several round wood pieces that are made to be sausages, spinach and I think Parmesan cheese. The “sausages” are the only ones that are realistic looking and the only knee she plays with. Everything else about the set is awesome, cute, realistic and one of her favorite toys of all! Very well made and will definitely last a long time (if she doesn’t lose it) The noodles are made of felt and are very realistic looking. The “fork” to grab the noodles out has Velcro on it so the noodles can stick to it!! Soooo cute and fun...not only for my granddaughter but anyone and everyone who comes over is drawn to the set and ends up playing with it for a very long time! Not just kids!! All the adults love it too!!

My 3.5 year old and I love this set! Super cute and great quality! Heavy duty cardboard boxes and the pasta would be so easy to recreate if some pieces were lost! Great value for money!

I purchased this Melissa & Doug pasta set almost a year ago for my daughter. She found it in her closet and begged me to open it. I'm so glad I did. While I like most Melissa & Doug products, I must say I am really pleased with this purchase. We opened the set about three weeks ago, and even my 6 year old niece has loved 'preparing' pasta for all of us too. The felt pasta is so cute and looks real. This is another practical toy to educate children about cooking. The only thing I would say is, I wish the manufacturer included a more realistic salt shaker in the set. The salt shaker included with the set wooden and not very realistic-looking. Lucky for me, I purchased a realistic-looking condiment set (salt, pepper, hot sauce, mustard and ketchup), also made by Melissa & Doug, which I would highly recommend if you think your child is interested in cooking. My daughter and niece use the condiment set with the pasta set and they LOVE playing with the sets.

This pasta set is so cool! I bought this as a Christmas present for my almost two year old who loves spaghetti! He went right to work! The set includes everything you would need to make real spaghetti! Durable red pot with lid and strainer, pasta spoon, wood rounds that represent meatballs, cheese and spinach! You can stuff the wood cheese rounds into the ravioli! How cool is that?! The included fork has a Velcro strip that allows you to pick up or twirl the sturdy felt pasta as you play! You also get a can of spaghetti sauce with red felt sauce inside and a parmesan cheese container where you can store the wood rounds and felt melted cheese! The pasta boxes are very realistic and made of a really nice heavy cardboard with plastic window! My son was able to recognize each element of the set and is quickly learning the process of making pasta......kind of spooky at age 1....but maybe I won't have to cook in a few years! My older children played with other Melissa and Doug play food sets in the past, but this is hands down my favorite that we've come across!! 5stars! The cooking utensils hang nicely on the hooks of Ikea's DUCKTIG kitchen!

Grand kids love

I love the idea behind learning how to make pasta in different forms. Still, the price is a little off-putting. I didn't mind when I bought it because it was for siblings. Am I right? Their happiness when they got such a wonderful gift was adorable, but for those looking for a cheaper gift, look elsewhere. The design made the gift easier to work with. It's a little hard to cook and understand how to cook, and this toy displayed an ease for children to comprehend and work with all, while keeping EVERYTHING fun.

Fun the grandkids loved it

Another winner from Melissa and Doug. Kinda wish there wasn’t so much cardboard (not sure how long it will last) but I appreciate this brand’s commitment to making everything as realistic as possible.

Expect it to survive for years due to it high quality

Bien

Bellissimo set!!!

LOVE! Absolute perfection! Can’t rate it highly enough!

My daughter loves this. Plays with it for hours with her play kitchen.
