Ignite the imagination with this exquisitely crafted wooden play food set! Featuring 21 hand-painted solid wood pieces, children can mix and match to create a balanced 'meal.' The collection includes a variety of items such as cheese, milk, watermelon, tomato, bread, fish, egg, steak, and much more! Additionally, four wooden crates (5.25 inches x 5.25 inches each) are included for sorting the food into groups – dairy, produce (fruits and vegetables), grains, and meat and fish. Children can also sort by color or use the crates to combine foods for pretend-play meals. This durable and vibrant realistic wooden food set will not only satisfy kids’ hunger for hands-on play, but also nourish cognitive development. It introduces the basics of nutrition and can be used to teach early number skills, color recognition, sorting, and grouping. The smooth, solid wood pieces are designed for small hands to promote fine motor skills and dexterity. This collection will encourage creative play and inspire young chefs to explore healthy food for years to come.
