Wow.......
This is a sweet little kitchen. I wish it was sitting in the corner of my bedroom(again I have that joy in play issue) or in my First Grade classroom. It would be so very perfect. I saw it briefly down in LA at a birthday party for a child recently. It was sitting in a house that had "everything" times 20, and it still stood out as a beautiful child's toy. Rather like the opening credits looked during those old Winnie the Pooh movies of Christopher Robin's Bedroom..or at least worthy of the Poppins nursery. <
>My daughter Sylvia had a Fisher Price Kitchen no longer on the market. It was plastic and her birthday gift when she was three. I rode over 150 miles to Paso Robles in CA to get it for our apartment home(it definitely outclassed the apartment) after stopping at nearly 40 K Marts and Toys 'R US 's trying to find it. Sold Out.She was an avid kitchen playing child and I was a first mom with a serious need to give my daughter a happy childhood.(translate that anything she ever said she wanted except the giraffe) She was delighted playing in the toy food and cooking up her sandwiches for her Dad who interestingly enough probably put in more hours with her in toy cooking world than I did. She liked to imitate the processes she saw her Grandma up to cooking during their days together when I was out teaching far away. You wonder sometimes at the gender notions conveyed by a toy kitchen for girls...but at least I remember my son getting a year or two at the stove. I remember my crazy drive home after scoring Sylvia's kitchen, with all of us sitting on each others laps and a box as big as a house taking up the car. Good thing this allows you to order through their mail. And of course assembly is never too fun. But as Sylvia was facing her surgery to reconstruct her Pectis Excavatum(chest wall) and I had just returned with her from Stanford after the first big appointment to hear the specifics if she had asked for a Mars Rover we'd have gotten the job done. And many days I thanked her choice as it was so fun to use. <
>I really thought this was a beautiful toy, if you have the money be thankful you do...i teach children who really can't enjoy something like this...but it'll give years of delight. Perfect for a major surprise for a special day for someone you love.
