About Us
From classic wooden toys to realistic pretend play sets, Melissa & Doug products inspire creative thinking through screen-free, open-ended play! We make well-crafted toys that are developed with care to be passed down from generation to generation or shared family to family. When kids play with Melissa & Doug toys, anything is possible!
What Is Open-Ended Play?
It’s Imaginative
Kids create the action in open-ended play and the possibilities are endless!
It’s Kid-Powered
It’s the kind of play that doesn’t come with a screen. It’s not battery-powered. It’s kid-powered.
It’s Skill Building
Creative thinking, problem solving, social-emotional skills – open-ended play helps develop them all.
It’s Fun!
With open-ended play, anything goes. A broom is a rocket ship! A mop is a mic!
