Experience quality time with your children, as they use their play set to create a hot pot meal for you.  Bond with your children as you all pretend to eat the food and interact with them as you carry on a conversation, sharing enriching playtime.  Cooking toys are so important for children, helping them imitate the gestures and speech of adults. Food play promotes identifying colors, food groups, counting and understanding directions. Non-toxic wooden food play sets are ideal for role-playing and socialization skills. They also increase literacy skills; especially if you help your children prepare a menu for the available food choices. Your child can either write your order or develop memory skills as you place your order for the appropriate food play set.
