The Melissa & Doug Food Set is a great way for kids to learn about food. Design a balanced meal with the Melissa & Doug Food Groups wooden play set. Items from the five food groups - such as watermelon, milk, cheese, fish, eggs, and more - are made from solid wood and come with four wooden baskets for sorting and storage. Kids need to identify each type of food (except for condiments) and sort it by basic food group: meat, dairy, grains, or fruits and vegetables. Ask them to place each food group in a different box.
