Giveaway Roundup! »

These Toys are Good For The Kids… and The Tired Mamma!


WINNER!

CONGRATULATIONS TO JENNIFER BOWEN!

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

What do you get the kid who has more energy than you can cram in the closet for more than an hour a day he knows what to do with?

Toys he can smash, crash, and BASH.

Enter the Melissa & Doug Pound and Roll Tower from one of the best places online to buy toys for your kids, Good For The Kids!

It has the word “Pound” in the name, so you know it’s good, man! My son is going to get hours of wacking good fun bashing and pounding those beautifully colored wooden balls and then running after them as they roll away… just so he can POUND THEM AGAIN.

And look!  Another Melissa & Doug product at Good For the Kids with “Pound” in the name!  The Classic Pound a Peg!  Another lovely wood-crafted, brightly colored toy that will drain your child’s endless freaking energy train promote motor skills in your child!

Melisa & Doug Pound and Roll Tower – $15.99

Melissa & Doug Classic Pound a Peg – $9.99

My son, wearing himself out by smashing and bashing to his heart’s content?  Priceless.

Would you like one of these awesome toys?  Of course you would!

All you have to do is visit Good For The Kids, find your favorite Melissa & Doug toy, and then come back here and tell me in comments what it is. (Please choose something other than the 2 toys I’ve mentioned here.)

Comments will be accepted through 11:59 CST, Monday December 1st.

Once comments are closed, one winner will be randomly selected using random.org and that person will receive their choice of either the Pound and Roll Tower or the Classic Pound a Peg!

Good Luck, Guys!

Disclosure: This is an uncompensated review. I received the Melissa&Doug Pound & Roll Tower for review, free of charge.

    Probably the sorting cube or the tool kit.

    I’ve heard a lot about Melissa and Doug products. Can’t wait to start buying some!!

  15. #15 by Alison on November 28, 2008 - 2:55 pm

    Wow I didn’t know that Melissa and Doug made that many different toys! I love them all. Melissa and Doug Kitchen Accessory Set. But I love that, man when we buy my son a kitchen for his 2nd birthday we are going to have to get that. I like the wood better than the stainless steel sets I’ve seen… I wonder which one will hurt more when I’m getting it thrown at me thou gh.

  16. #16 by pam on November 29, 2008 - 10:12 pm

    The Skippyjon Jones books and huggers are great!

  18. #18 by Amanda on November 30, 2008 - 10:18 am

    I love the train set and then beginner’s band set. Melissa and Doug is definitely one of my favorite toy brands.

  29. #29 by Krista on December 1, 2008 - 2:05 am

    Oh heck yes, sign me up! Things that pound are good… and my son is all into the sorting right now so I’d get the shape sorting cube!

  30. #30 by Mike on December 1, 2008 - 11:13 am

    Definately the train set. We have a smaller, Melissa & Doug figure 8 train set, and my son loves it! The larger train set would be perfect on the play table I’m building him for Chirstmas!

  31. #31 by Mandee on December 1, 2008 - 12:01 pm

    I love that site! I really like the Melissa and Doug Shape Sorting Clock, my daughter would like it.

  32. #32 by Terrie on December 1, 2008 - 12:05 pm

    My grandson would love the pounding toys! I also really like the Melissa and Doug Wooden Stacking Emergency Vehicles Puzzle. I love all the wooden toys.

  33. #33 by Amanda Jones on December 1, 2008 - 3:55 pm

    I love M&D….favorite toys of all time. Though I am hoping to have every food set they have (eventually), the ABC vintage blocks are too classic to pass up.

  34. #34 by SusanB on December 1, 2008 - 4:18 pm

    I’m thinking we might pick up the cutting fruit set, or some of the other food…we have cutting food already, but my kiddo is a chopping fiend and always wants MORE! (When he’s not pounding, that is…)

    SusanBs last blog post..Thanks, Internets!
