Did you know? Well now you do. :)

For today's Spot the Product, I'm going to focus on something that many people don't know we have. Toys! Yes, that's right, we have toys. Robert's Crafts carries a good assortment of toys but the specific brand I would like to focus on is from Melissa and Doug.

I'm going to review some pretend food toys, and some build your own puppets.

 The first one that I played around with is the Wedding Cake.

The wedding cake has all removing slices of the cake. Everything is held together with Velcro. If you look up close at the cake you will see the flowers that have Velcro on the back of them letting you be able to decorate your cake.

This is a close up of the flowers.

I love the fact that this cake can either be a wedding cake with the wedding topper or just a fancy cake. One thing that I love about Melissa and Doug toys is the nice detail, and the craftsmanship of the toys. They are bright and made out of wood. The paint that they use is lead free. I really enjoy playing with them! They are a rather popular item at Robert's Crafts.

The next toy that I would like to review is the cupcakes.

I thought this was one of the best sets that I have ever played with. Let me tell you some of the super fun things that comes with it.

The cupcakes come with frosting that you slide on top of the cupcakes. Then to top it off, you can put candles on the cupcakes. Don't forget to put them in the paper cupcake liners.

Another thing that I thought was so much fun, was the icing that comes with the set. They are actually dry erase markers that you draw your design on top of the cupcake icing and then you wipe off with a paper towel when you want a clean surface. So stinkin' cute!

I love how everything comes in the muffin tins and you have enough stuff to make 4 cupcakes. When your child gets their hands on this set, they won't want to put it down!

The last play food set that I would like to review is the cookie set.

With this set, the cookies all have Velcro on the back of them so you put the icing onto the cookie and put the cookie onto the cookie sheet. You can also put all the cookies together and use the knife to "slice" them and divide them up

When you are done, you can stack them together and put them into the can.

This set, combined with the cupcake set gives your child a lot of creativity for them to play around with and really use their imaginations. I love the fact that everything is Velcro so you can put them together and take them apart.

The other toys that I would like to review is the "Make Your Own Princess/Monster Puppet."

The first one is the monster puppet. Start with a monster base.

Then add arms, horns or ears.

Add eyes, nose, and teeth.

Add some fuzz or whatever else you want. Then your done! Don't like it, tear all the pieces off and put on different ones to create a completely different puppet.

For the princess puppet, there are some similarities.

You will start with a puppet base.

 Then add one of the two dresses.

Pick from one of the wigs, either brown or yellow.

Then to finish the princess up, add your choice of jewelry, the crown, and bling.

So as you can see, Robert's Crafts carries a great selection of high quality toys that are great to given as gifts. The toys from the Melissa and Doug collection are an excellent choice of toys for your children.

Until next time, Happy Crafting!
