Melissa & Doug - Vending Machine

This vending machine play set offers a fun and educational experience for children. It includes a unique wooden vending machine that can be stocked with nine double-sided play food packages, such as snack bars, drinks, and pouches. Children can select an item, insert a color-matching play coin or bank card, and press the corresponding button to see the snack drop into the collection drawer. This hands-on activity helps teach cause-and-effect, as well as letter, number, and color recognition, sorting, matching, counting, and fine motor skills. The 19-piece set comes with a wooden vending machine, snack bars, drink cans, snack pouches, play coins, a bank card, a customizable sign, and a reusable activity card. The vending machine measures 17" high x 12.5" wide x 5.5" deep and requires no assembly or batteries. All pieces can be stored inside the vending machine for easy cleanup. This play set is an excellent gift for children aged 3 to 6, providing hours of screen-free, imaginative play.
