Why is pretend play good for children?
Pretend play is good for children because it is how they practise the grown-up world: talking, planning, sharing and solving small problems, all inside a story they choose. The American Academy of Pediatrics report The Power of Play describes play as central to how young children build language, self-control and social skills.
This kitchen set is a pretend play toy. There is nothing to win and no screen to follow, so your child decides what is cooking, who is coming to eat and what happens next.
Words and conversation
Naming foods, taking orders on the phone and calling everyone to eat give your child reasons to talk. The CDC milestones list short back-and-forth conversations by age 3.
Imagination and planning
Deciding what to cook, what goes in the oven first and when the meal is ready is planning in miniature. Pretend play builds this kind of thinking, as the AAP's play report explains.
Sharing and taking turns
One cook at the stove, one at the sink, one serving: a kitchen gives brothers, sisters and friends a job each. Taking turns in games is a skill most children show by 5, says the CDC.
Early counting
Two spoons each, three plates for three teddies, a price for every dish. Numbers turn up in every meal, which is why our guide to teaching numbers with a play kitchen starts at the stove.
Doing it themselves
Children copy the jobs they watch you do. With a fridge, oven and sink of their own, your child can do every one of them, then pack the pots back into the cupboards when the meal is over.
Play away from screens
The WHO advises no more than one hour of screen time a day for children aged 3 and 4, and less is better. A kitchen set gives the afternoon a hands-on game instead.
In Nairobi it reaches your door within 3 hours.
What does the kitchen set have?
The kitchen set has a fridge with a water dispenser, a microwave, a stove with turning knobs, an oven, a range hood, a sink with a tap, a telephone, cupboards with opening doors and a large storage basket. The buttons light up and play cooking sounds, so the stove and microwave respond when small hands press them.

- Refrigerator with a water dispenserLittle hands use the water dispenser, then open the fridge to put the food away.
- Microwave with lights and soundsPress a button and it lights up and plays a sound. So warming up lunch feels real.
- Stove with turning knobs that make soundsThe knobs turn and make sounds. That makes stirring the pot feel like proper cooking.
- OvenThe play food goes in to bake, and comes out when your child says it is ready.
- Range hoodA gold hood sits above the stove and finishes the look of a grown-up kitchen.
- Sink with a tapWashing up becomes part of the game, the way it is in your kitchen.
- TelephoneA phone for taking orders, calling granny and running a pretend restaurant.
- Large storage basketEverything goes back in the basket at tidy-up time, so the floor stays clear.
- Cupboards with opening doorsDoors that open and close give every pot and pan a place to live.
What comes in the box?
The box holds the kitchen and everything your child needs to start cooking on the first day: gold pots, pans and lids, a spatula, a spoon, tongs, other cooking utensils and play food. The gold pots and pans match the gold accents on the kitchen, so the whole set looks like one piece.
- Gold pots with lids
- Gold frying pan
- Spatula
- Spoon
- Tongs
- Other cooking utensils
- Play food
Will it fit my home?
The wooden kitchen set fits most homes because it is 79 cm wide and only 30 cm deep. That means it stands flat against a wall and covers a strip of floor about the size of a doormat. A sitting room corner, a bedroom wall or the space beside a dining table will all hold it.
The drawing shows the set from the front and the side. Measure your wall before you order, and keep a little space in front for your child to stand and cook.
Living in a bedsitter or a one-bedroom? Our guide to fitting a kitchen set in a small flat has room-by-room ideas.
Is it the right size for a 3-year-old?
The kitchen set is the right size for a 3-year-old because it stands 90 cm high, and the WHO growth standards put the average 3-year-old at about 95 cm tall. That puts every door, knob and button within easy reach from the very first day of play.
By 8, children are about 128 cm tall on the CDC growth charts. So an 8-year-old stands tall over the pots, which suits the bigger restaurant games older children play.
Play changes as they grow. The CDC milestones list pretending to be someone else during play as a skill most children show by age 4.

How do the lights and sounds work?
The lights and sounds on the wooden kitchen set work at the press of a button: the buttons light up and play cooking sounds. A pot on the stove sounds like it is cooking, and the light shows that a meal is on its way. Each press starts a new round of cooking.
