Food Groups Wood Play Food from Melissa and Doug

Food Groups Wood Play Food from Melissa and Doug- What We Love:

Fun, bright colors, sturdy wood play food that has no small pieces to break off. Kids can learn to shop, cook and serve healthy foods with this variety of wood food representing all the standard 4 food groups. This is an excellent deal for setting up that play kitchen or grocery store. Lots of fun with the Melissa and Doug shopping cart or play kitchen. Like all the Melissa and Doug play food, these are well-made and will far outlast that cheap plastic stuff.

Food Groups Wood Play Food from Melissa and Doug - Description:

Planning a well-balanced meal is child's play with this wooden set. Items from the five food groups--including watermelon, milk, cheese, fish, eggs, and much more--are crafted of solid wood and come with four wooden baskets for sorting and storage.

Extension Activities: More Ways to Play and Learn:

Ask the child to identify each food item (other than condiments) and to categorize it by basic food group: meat, dairy, grain, or fruits and vegetables. Ask the child to place each food group in a different crate.
Have the child identify the colors of each food item, and sort the items by color among the four crates.
Help the child to assemble a balanced meal in each basket. Explain that each meal must have one item from each food group.
Visual memory skills: Place 3-4 ingredients in front of the child. Let the child study them before asking the child to close their eyes while you remove one piece. Ask the child which piece was removed. Gradually increase the number of ingredients.
