Amazon is having a massive Melissa & Doug sale right now–here’s what to shop

Dangly feet, colorful artwork and fun, simple text make this first book a true delight. (It’s also machine washable!)

Starting off strong, this might be the best deal we’ve found on all of Amazon. These blocks last for ages and we’ve lost count of how many hours our kids have spent building towers, knocking them down and starting all over again.

Kids as young as two can start helping out around the house. Keep track of their tasks and give them a clear visual of what’s on their to-do list with this handy magnetic chart!

Ideal for little hands, these chunky wooden puzzles feature a knobbed pieces and inlayed pictures to help the tiniest puzzle solvers succeed.

Budding foodies will love to assemble their own wooden sushi. With sliceable sushi rolls, shrimp, tuna, egg, and roe toppings, rice, dipping bowl, wooden knife, menu, and grippy chopsticks, our own kids have kept this set in rotation for years at this point!

Rainy day craft projects are always great to have on hand. This vibrant kit comes with everything they’ll need to create a stunning butterfly stained glass they can admire when the sun comes back!

A plush bowling set that can be used indoors and out! The weighted bottoms make it easy for them to set up while the included carry case keeps everything neat and tidy between games.

They had us at the fake beard. This engaging (and hilarious) play set comes with a vibrating trimmer, shaving cream can, play rolling razor, scissors, brush, comb, textured play pomade, wash cloth, adjustable mirror, reusable double-sided activity card all stored in a zippered shaving kit. The perfect way to shadow dad!

The high-quality felt food sets from Melissa & Doug are always a hit with our littles. Complete with 42 pieces including four soft slices of play-food pizza to customize with felt toppings along with a durable pizza pan and cardboard pizza delivery box, this one is a top favorite.

A quality wooden train set can keep little ones actively engaged for hours. We’re big fans of this one from Melissa & Doug which is easy to assemble in four different track configurations and comes with 30 different accessories.

Get the tiniest green thumbs in on the spring gardening action. It’s also perfect for beach days and bath time!

Many a road-trip and restaurant meal have been saved by these little miracles. Just fill the reusable “paint brush” with water and let them go to town revealing the colors hidden in the pages. When it dries, the color disappears so they can do it all over again.

For the older set, we love the On the Go Scratch Art Activity Books. Using the included wooden stylus they can uncover hidden pictures and colors as they scratch away. They’re perfect for travel but also great for a rainy day.

Make puzzle time even more fun and engaging with this magnetic duo. Catch fish and bug pieces with the included net and pole to help develop hand eye coordination while having fun!

Perfect for those little Elton John’s in training!

Our kids love everything about this kit, but the sling, splint and cast are some of the hottest toys in the toy box. Seriously, they’ve launched a thousand sibling squabbles, but still highly worth the investment.

Budding bakers will absolutely adore this wooden play set. With space to mix, display and sell their goodies, it’s a fun set for siblings to share.

From arts and crafts to building with blocks or even playing trains, this versatile table makes the entire playroom.

Toddlers love to help with whatever household chores you are doing. A mop, dust pan and broom just their size allows them to clean alongside you.

Toddlers get endless joy and satisfaction through the cause and effect of dropping things. That’s why we absolutely love this fun wooden tower toy! They can spend hours rolling and stacking the six double-sided wooden GO Tots friends discs and make them tumble, twirl, and zigzag down the wooden town house tower. It’s just the right height for use while sitting or standing and easy for a couple kiddos to play with together. 

A brain-boosting sorter with the added fun of farm animals!

Match, build, and play with PAW Patrol by using wooden character tools and hardware to piece together projects with this all-in-one Mission Cruiser. The pieces attach to each other, the sides of the cruiser and the work bench to offer lots of ways to play and collaborate with friends.
