About this item

Highlights

  • 17-piece play-food set with wooden knife
  • Pieces store in attractive wooden crate
  • Beautifully painted pieces feature realistic details
  • Self-stick tabs hold pieces together, then "slice" apart with satisfying crunch sound
  • Perfect for pretend play and introducing concepts of part and whole

Description

Who wants a piece of fruit? This beautiful wooden fruit set is ready for playtime. The Melissa & Doug Cutting Fruit set includes a wooden knife and seven pieces of sliceable fruit that can be cut into a total of 17 pieces. The pieces are held together with self-stick tabs, so the food makes a fun and satisfying "crunch" sound when sliced. The set is made from high-quality wood, is painted with realistic details, and comes in a durable wooden storage box. Kids can have hours of pretend play as they imagine cutting up a delicious fruit salad, or serving up other juicy treats. The play food set helps kids practice fine motor skills and hand-eye coordination, and with so many pieces, it's a great way to introduce counting, and the concepts of part, whole, and fractions. It makes a great gift for preschoolers, ages three and older for hands-on, screen-free play.

I bought this one week ago for my daughter and I am very disappointed in the quality. I am shocked because Melissa and Doug toys are normally my favorite very high quality toys however this cutting fruit set is very disappointing. Multiple pieces barely hold together and it’s brand new. It seems like the design is bad and the Velcro needs to stick out more than it does to actually be affective.

Cool toy but disappointed - 6 months ago, Verified purchaser
I was really excited about this toy and had been wanting it for a long time. Finally got it for my daughter. She's been playing with it for 2 months or so and the kiwi no longer stays together. One of hte other fruits is starting to wear away too. I was hesitant b/c it was velcro but I thought it'd last longer than this.

Great quality! My hope for buying these was to give play wooden fruit to my daughter - she loves mouthing and exploring these! I also appreciate the wooden basket for cleanup purposes.

Paint chipping off in under a week

2 out of 5 stars
Boutybob - 9 months ago, Verified purchaser
We’ve had this toy for less than a week and the paint is already substantially chipping off of the toy fruits. I loved the concept of this, but at this rate they most likely won’t last. This is my first Melissa & Doug purchase, with this quality it will most likely be my last.

I love Melissa and Doug products. Great quality and durable. I am a pediatric physical therapist and my kiddos are hard on all the toys. Melissa and Doug products stand up to the repeated use. Grown-ups like playing with the kids' toys as well (truth be told).

My children 5 and 6 have always been so fascinated with the sliced fruit and veggie toys. They’re at the ages now where pretend play is in full force! I grabbed this one for a Christmas gift and I’m so impressed with the size of the toy. The weight of it tells me this is going to last for a great amount of time. I also really love that it comes with a wooden bin included. That’s really an awesome plus to this toy. Now these things will have a place after they use it each time.

Rice - 1 year ago, Verified purchaser
Cute, but feels a little cheap. The paint chips off pretty easily. The wooden box it comes in has already broken. The cantaloupe is made of cheaper thinner wood than the others. And the knife slices through pretty realistically. It is really cute don’t regret buying it just think the price should be lower.

I may have gotten a bad batch, but the fruit pieces do not stick together well. We've had them a few months and it seems to be getting harder to stick the pieces together.
