Last week I attended an event for Fisher-Price where I got a sneak peek at their amazing new toy, the Servin’ Surprise Kitchen. I don’t think I am exaggerating when I say, all children love to play “kitchen”. Kid’s imaginations can run wild with pretend food and kitchen play. My kids (ages 8 and 5) still love to play with the kitchen they have had for over six years. Kids can pretend they are going to the super market, play restaurant, or have a family dinner. Playing “family” is big in my house, how about your’s? Of course we expect wonderful toys to come from Fisher-Price and this is no exception.
Kitchen play is so important for kids. Some of the skill-building opportunities with food/kitchen play are… color identification, sensory stimulation, counting and measuring, problem solving, fine motor skills, cooperation and sharing.
Your kids will love the “magic” serving tray which says different phrases like “Who wants pizza?” or “Mmmm, cookies!” There are also songs to teach kids about manners and clean up, love that. Since I am a little bit of a neat freak, my favorite part is the secret compartment that stores everything in the table, easy cleanup is the best. The size is perfect as well, not too big so I wouldn’t feel bad giving it as a gift to someone who lives in an apartment and doesn’t have a ton of room for big toys.
The kitchen set includes table with convertible stovetop, removable oven and “magic” serving tray, 4 slices of pizza with toppings & pizza cutter, 4 cookies with cookie sheet, 2 place settings: forks, spoons, cups & plates.
