Rise and shine – it’s waffle time! Little ones can cook and serve homemade waffles with this gourmet breakfast set. Waffle iron lid moves up and down to give children the realistic experience of making their very own waffles. Butter, syrup and strawberries top off this tasty breakfast treat. Made from durable plastic, and perfectly sized for little hands. 

Includes:

4-piece waffle
1 syrup bottle
2 strawberries
2 pads of butter
2 plates
2 forks

My Review:
New Sprouts Waffle Time! is awesome! We make waffles at least once a week for breakfast in our house so when I saw this cute set with it's own waffle maker I knew it would be a hit with my girls. I love that the waffles divide into four pieces so they can be shared. The butter is half melted and the strawberries and syrup bottle are very realistic looking. It also comes with two forks and two plates so kids can plate their own breakfast. My girls have been playing with this set non-stop and love making their very own waffles. Even my seven almost eight year old joins in the fun as well. She's at that age where she doesn't seem to enjoy pretend play quite as much as she used to but she absolutely loves this set. New Sprouts Waffle Time! seems very well made and is sure to provide kids with hours and hours of fun and would make the perfect gift this holiday season!

My Review:
Gears! Gears! Gears! Sweet Shop Building Set is so fun! I enjoy this set almost as much as my five year old. It's so fun to build and play with. My five year old has always enjoyed building things but has somewhat become bored with building with blocks so I often find her stacking odds and ends around the house. Gears! Gears! Gears! Sweet Shop Building Set is the perfect way to encourage her creative building skills. I also enjoy that she is learning how gears make things turn and move. We've always said she's our little engineer and with this set she is able to engineer far more than she would with just blocks. She also enjoys that it comes with lollipops, cupcakes and ice cream cones. Some of the gears have candy designs on them so my daughter often builds her own sweet shop and her sisters join in the pretend play by pretending to eat the sweets. The colors are vibrant beautiful and the set seems very well made. I can't wait to get her more of the Gears! Gears! Gears! sets so she can build even more!
