Kidkraft Garden Gourmet Play Kitchen

From farm to plate, food is celebrated with the KidKraft Garden Gourmet Play Kitchen. Upscale elements, like the marble-esque countertops, festive tile-look backsplash and wooden butcher-block style island, are showcased in a down-to-earth set-up that's reminiscent of today's farmhouse chic movement. Kids will love working with the "pickable" veggies and herbs and chopping them to add to the most creative meal they can make up. Knobs that really turn and click and an ice maker with pretend ice cubes make the cooking experience more real. A recycling bin helps enforce the importance of helping out the environment. Chalkboard surfaces let kids express their artistic creativity and add personalization to this adorable kitchen where magic is sure to ensue.

By pretend playing with others, children begin to understand that words give them the power to re-enact a story and to organize play. Emotional development - Imaginative play allows your child to express both positive and negative feelings. It also helps him to work through difficult emotions and to understand them.
