Adorable Toddler Play Kitchen + Favorite Pretend Play Toys (Grandchild Approved)

One of my favorite parts of being a true ‘coastal grandmother’ is getting to watch my grandchildren’s little imaginations come to life.

Today I wanted to share a few of our favorite play things (grandchild approved!).

This adorable play kitchen has been played with every single day since I gave it to Forrest for Christmas!

It came with the cutest little details—tiny cups and plates, kitchen tools, and even “ice” for the pretend ice maker.

I’ve rounded up more play kitchens and play food we love here, as well as more of his favorite pretend food and shopping toys below.
