Melissa & Doug is an American manufacturer and purveyor of children's toys.[1][2][3] The company was founded by Melissa and Doug Bernstein in their basement in 1988.[4][5] It is headquartered in Wilton, Connecticut.[6] It is especially noted for wooden puzzles and similar types of high-end educational toys. Though originally made in the United States, its products are now mostly manufactured by Chinese suppliers.[5][7]
