Melissa & Doug Wooden Frozen Treats Ice Cream Play Set – 24 Pieces

Chill-Out Pretend Play with a 24-Piece Wooden Frozen Treat Set

This Melissa & Doug play set invites toddlers and kids 3 and up to mix, match, and assemble wooden ice creams, pops, and Italian ice cups. With a total of 24 pieces, the kit includes six cookies, three ice-cream fillings, six ice-pop halves, two Italian ice cups with lids, two spoons, and a reusable menu card. Everything rests in a tidy storage tray for easy cleanup and display between sessions.

The tactile experience is rich—the smooth wood surfaces, crisp painted hues, and satisfying snaps as pieces connect. Children can build confidence as they test different flavor pairings, then describe their creations to a caregiver or friend. This kind of open-ended play supports early cognitive skills like color recognition, counting, and pattern matching, while encouraging fine motor control as small tabs and pieces are picked up, aligned, and pressed into place.
