These are the toys most likely to engage their interests and to hit that sweet spot of where kids may be developmentally. On each product page, you'll find product-specific age recommendations, which are based on both safety and developmental considerations.
If your little one is super-into a subject—fire trucks, cooking, animals, dinosaurs, for example—Melissa & Doug offers specially curated Gift Bundles comprised of individual items within that theme! For example, if you shop our All About Animals Gift Bundle, it includes three beloved animal-themed Melissa & Doug toys: Zoo Friends Hand Puppets (tiger, elephant, monkey, giraffe); an 8-piece Zoo Animals Sounds Puzzle; and a 20-piece Wooden Animal Magnets set! There are 10 different Gift Bundle themes to shop from, too so visit our Gift Bundles page.
