Learning Resource Toys

The register thread got me searching their products on Amazon. DS's daycare has the cash register, which he loves. Are there any other of their toys you would suggest for a two year old? Small pieces are not really an issue. TIA

We really like their play food. It is very sturdy and is life-sized.

I also highly recommend the play food! We have the blue cookies, the cupcakes, and the chocolate box. Very sturdy and played with daily!

i bought one of the "cookie jar" games at target on a whim one day ---i was having a baddish day and i'd been eyeing up , very specifically the PINK WAFER COOKIE, so at 30% i just went for it.

we have TONS of playfood (cloth,felt, knit,wood,plastic,allofit) , but i just love these little cookies. 8 different kinds (each kind represents a shape, but they really do look like REAL cookies), and 5 of each- so the value for sharing is excellent!!! (each kid at a playdate can have a bunch...which is important around here). it is also a game-- or several games, really. so far we've mostly just done "make a face" or "make a man" with the cookies...the container the whole thing is SO cute-- looks like a cookie jar! the lid is fun/easy to take off and makes a satisfying "snap" when put back on. my child just picked up a stray cookie and said "this belongs in the cookie jar!" (that only would be worth the 10 dollars to me!)

i see the ice cream and cupcake sets alot, but the colors put me off on those... i guess that's the point? (they are for teaching colors?) this thread reminds me that maybe we should take the cookies up to the kitchen for a while since it's cookie baking season!
