Awhile back I became a wee bit obsessed with Learning Resources Pretend & Play line of toys.  I got their Pretend & Play School set for my mom to give Sophie for Christmas because I know she will L-O-V-E it.  I just love all these realistic toys that let kids act-out some fun scenarios.  So, after talking Learning Resources’ website and Facebook page for awhile, I contacted them to ask if I could review and give away a toy from their Pretend & Play line.  They agreed, and I chose the Pretend & Play Supermarket Checkout set.

We received the set just as Joshua was having his first of many sick days from the stomach flu.  It was so nice to have a new toy to keep the kids busy when the kids were stuck in the house.  They had SO much fun with it!  Here’s a cute little short video of them playing together.

Here’s what I love about the Supermarket Checkout:

• The moving conveyor belt. Just one of the many realistic features of this set! The “cashier” can press a button and move their customers food on down the belt.
• The scanner that beeps, just like in a real life, when you pass the items over it.
• Pretend scale so you can weigh produce
• Cash register drawer that opens and closes
• Credit card that beeps and says “paid” when you pass it through the scanner

Joshua and Sophie are seriously having such a great time pretending with this set and making up different shopping scenarios.  I know your kiddos will love this, set too!  Here’s how you can win one for them!  You can enter three different ways:

1) Leave a comment on this post telling me what your favorite pretend toy was when you were a child

2) “Like” Learning Resources on Facebook and then come back here and leave a comment letting me know you did so

3) “Like” Mommin’ It Up on Facebook and come back here and leave a comment letting me know you did or already do.

This contest will be open until Tuesday, December 20th at 6 pm EST.  One winner will be chosen at random.  U.S Residents only, please. Good luck!  For more information on Learning Resources, check out their You Tube videos or follow them on Twitter.
