In our move toward more toddler-appropriate toys, we purchased a toy kitchen for Emma, since she seemed so enamored of ours. Unfortunately, it was nearly the death of Emma's Mom and Dad, as it took three hours from start to finish to assemble it. When we pulled the parts from the box, we were stunned by the sheer volume of plastic pieces attached to grid upon grid, all waiting to be separated and trimmed. It was like being handed the blue prints for the Death Star.
Nevertheless, the kitchen has been a hit, offering the Baby Bee a host of (non-functional) features, including a stove top, oven, sink with detachable sprayer, microwave and fridge. Emma can often be found ooing and aahing over the culinary opportunities presented to her and will "cook" us a little dinner when we're in the playroom with her. My favorite is when she stirs the pots and pans and emits a satisfied "Mmm!" after tasting one of her concoctions. Gotta love it!
