I would love some magnetic numbers and letters for my and my mom's fridges - does anyone have any btdt/recommendations? They may very well be chewed on so I wonder about the magnet on the back....
Many TIA

Love the Melissa and Doug sets - they are flat so no magnets to fall off.

We have the Melissa and Doug sets too, and I agree that they are great. Sadly, many of them went missing over the years.

We have the Melissa and Doug ones, too. Chewing will ruin them, but I would still recommend them. We also got (as a gift) the Leapfrog magnetic letters with a player that gives the phonetic sound of the letter in a little song when you put the letter in it. DS LOVES it!!! Even though the letters are plastic, the magnet is enclosed. Ours have gotten lots of abuse and are still going strong. We generally discourage plastic toys, but this one is a winner in our house!

Oh my that looks like fun! I'm not so keen on lots of play in my kitchen but my mom's is safer so this could work there. Originally Posted by 123LuckyMom
