With additional sounds and lights, like one in the oven to see food cooking, and easy-to-use knobs for appliances, there’s no shortage of pretend play opportunities with this play kitchen.

How Can I Prepare For My First Kitchen? Honeya 'I bought this as a gift for my daughter. She loves cooking and doing kitchen stuff so this is a great gift for her. I would recommend it.'

Some may have never cooked much on their own outside of sandwiches, macaroni and pizza. How can you eat well, navigate a (small) kitchen, and avoid opting for takeout every night? Setting up the play kitchen was cumbersome with lots of parts and pieces, but we assembled everything in about an hour and a half by following instructions closely (in typical Ikea fashion, these have pictures only). The fiberboard and birch plywood showed no wear and tear, even with a 5-year-old slamming the doors out of excitement. Lilypops 'Nice little set, makes a few different noises, comes with a couple of plates, knives and forks and a noisy thing (not sure what it's supposed to be!) there's a frying pan, egg and spatula and we've added our own plastic food to change it up a bit'There are 78 accessories included with this Step2 play kitchen, from pretend food and pots and pans to utensils and condiment bottles.

There’s also a light in the refrigerator that automatically turns on when the door opens and a light in the oven for visibility. A big hit with our testers? The realistic blender and popcorn maker stovetop attachment—the latter has tiny white balls that pop on the inside to mimic the real thing.
