There are many types of play kitchen sets. Some are plastic and may last a couple of years but if you want a good, durable kitchen set a wooden kitchen set will be the best investment for your dollar. In today's economy with many having to pinch the dollar, there are many aspects to look at. Do you want your dollar to purchase a plastic set that will last a short while or a unique wooden play kitchen set that will last for a long time?
There are many styles of wooden play kitchen sets. Some are natural colored and others are brightly colored. Many wooden play kitchen sets consist of a wooden toy cupboard, wooden toy stove, wooden toy refrigerator and even a wooden toy microwave. Some wooden play kitchen sets come already assembled although freight cost more. Other wooden play kitchen sets come unassembled and can become a family project putting it together or maybe a wonderful project for a parent or grandparent to put together and make it extra special knowing that it was "built" by that special someone.
I received a wooden play cupboard when I was 2 years old and remember how much fun I had playing with it. My sister and I played "house" every day and I know my parents were very satisfied knowing that the money they spent on that wooden play cupboard was thoroughly enjoyed. As time passed, I had a daughter and the wooden play cupboard was once again played with. Today it is stored away waiting for my grandchildren and the wooden play cupboard is in excellent condition. I don't believe that a plastic one would last over 40 years and be in excellent condition.
One of my favorite companies is Elves and Angels which is a company that makes wooden toys in Maine. This company has many styles of wooden toy kitchen sets similiar to the one that I had when I was small. This company not only has wooden toy kitchen play sets but they also make a wooden play diaper changing table as well. This will really keep your little one busy carrying for "the family". Some have a integrated hutch with two shelves will be ideal for displaying all the "pretty dishes". Children can bake on the two oven shelves and store items in the cupboard. Made of solid wood with carefully rounded edges your child will enjoy many happy moments cooking and making delicious meals.
Other wooden play kitchen sets are very eye catching. Instead of the bottom part of the wooden toy cupboard having doors it has brightly colored curtains and makes this little kitchen set stand out and look very creative. It also gives the little one plenty of space to the left of the sink for drying dishes or doing any "food prep" that needs to be done.
Some wooden play kitchen sets have the wooden toy cupboard and the wooden play stove and oven combined together. The "sink" is a small stainless steel bowl. With ample space to do cooking, baking and clean up tasks your child will be learning about the real art of cooking.
There are even some ideas that one can use when the child has outgrown playing with it. It makes an ideal place to store crafts, scrapbooking papers or perhaps store your child's little memory projects in it.
There are many toys advertised in today's world trying to grab the attention of parents and children, but sometimes it is the items that aren't advertised that are the best. Toys are toys, but a real toy is one that can be passed on from generation to generation with wonderful stories that can be passed also.
