Melissa and Doug Kitchen Giveaway- Post 5

Well, This is my last post and I did some shopping to add to our craft corner. But in these posts I am focusing on what I think the kids would love and this list is longer than the others but is for smaller items. I think the lacing shoes and the see and spell, the Pattern blocks and Boards, the wooden shape sorting clock. The other item is the building blocks, we have the big cardboard ones but I would like to get the wooden ones and I wish there stores would stock the book about what to do with your children with building blocks. It is put out by the group that certifies preschool, the NAEYC The Block Book (3d ed.) by  Elisabeth S. Hirsch.  This book explains the the contributions to physics, math, social studies and creativity that occurs by playing with blocks. Since this is my last blog on Melissa and Doug, I do have one request - they are so good at putting their toys in quality cases when you buy them, I wish there also a good method of storing that toy or another toy. To go with the whole, Reduce, reuse, recycle effort.  Obviously, Of course I do want the Kitchen set too.

Thanks, Jane
