My grandsons are three and five and they love this toy. They love writing little notes and putting them in the mailbox. I love that it’s a wipe off item so they can reuse many of the supplies.

I purchased this item for my granddaughter. I glued to 3 small bricks this mailbox so it wouldn't topple over. I put it next to her playhouse outside. She loves checking for mail. It comes with 3 reusable cards and crayons that you can wipe off and reuse. This is perfect product for the price.

I bought this for my little neighbor, she has to check the mail everyday. If they don't pick her up to open the box and get the mail she gets mad, she's 18 months old. She got this for one of her Christmas gifts. Her mother told me she opens it 10 times a day. It is very sturdy and well worth the money. It is definitely giftable.

M & D always makes quality products but this is not big enough for even a postcard. Kind of defeats the purpose and it was a gift so a return was awkward.

Fantastic item. Made a great memory for our family and continued use. We had a letter writing Fmaily evening. Bought one set for each Fmaily member and we all sat around the table, decorated our mailboxes, then wrote each other encouraging notes, and delivered them. Was tons of fun, and the kiddos didn’t wnat to stop until we ran out of stationary. The plastic letters that came with it didn’t erase all that well, but we used different paper stationary and this worked very well. We also got some fake stamps, with old fashioned pictures in them, and taught kiddos how to address an envelope. They could have done this all evening. We all really enjoyed this, and set them up in the living room, with a basket next to them with the fake stamps and extra stationary for future use if anyone needs an encouraging note or for fun. My 7 yr old son kept thanking me for buying these and having this night. Both kids (6&7), and both parents ;) REALLY enjoyed this, and still do :) Thank you!

My 3 1/2 year old son received the Melissa and Doug My Own Mailbox as a gift over a year ago and it's still a part of his frequently played with toys, which in toddlerdom says a lot. The box itself can be personalized with letter and number stickers and with crayons. It comes with reusable lined paper and a stamped envelope that wipe clean- really clean, not smeared wiped off crayon clean- with a damp paper towel. There's even a card with a blank face to fill in. It's perfect for kids who love to play pretend. My son uses it to deliver letters to Santa all year long and it's big enough to "mail" packages (action figures and small stuffed animals). I just bought them for my friends' 3 and 5 year old daughters who couldn't wait to open them and I plan to buy one for another friend's 4 year old son. It's one of those go-to gifts that is affordable, which surprisingly difficult thing to come by and it's more unique than the typical plastic toy you would find at a big box store. It will likely be the most popular gift at the party and most importantly, it stands the test of time.Pros:Fail safe toddler gift for any genderIt's durable and cleans easilyEasy for kids to play with together, especially when they're at the age where sharing is difficultGood practice for learning to write and memorize house their own addressFun for kids with drastically different playing stylesCons:It comes with a sharpened pencil that had to be put away until my little one is olderThe crayons come out of the holders easily
