As a stay at home mother of two little boys I am always looking for something fun and engaging for my children. My boys, like most little boys, are very active. They like to run and jump and get into anything and everything. They are also little performers who love to mimic my behavior and habits.
My family spends a lot of time in the kitchen cooking and cleaning and working on arts and crafts. Our kitchen is the center of our home and where the entire family tends to gravitate. It comes as no surprise then that both of my little boys like to pretend and “play” kitchen during their free time.
I promised my husband that if we got a kitchen for the boys to play with it would not be a magenta pink kitchen. I would look for something gender neutral that would work with our home décor. I spent a lot of time looking around for the perfect kitchen for our family. Needless to say I was thrilled to be offered the chance to review the KidKraft White Vintage Kitchen and jumped at the opportunity!
After ooh-ing and aah-ing over this kitchen online we were ecstatic when it arrived on our doorstep. We love getting mail! We made putting the White Vintage Kitchen together a family project. Upon completion we spent even more time ooh-ing and aah-ing over our new play kitchen. We could not wait to get in there and start playing.
The KidKraft White Vintage Kitchen is Mom Mart Approved!
What we love about the KidKraft White Vintage Kitchen:
- We love the style of this kitchen. Since it is white it blends in with our décor. It is an impressive looking kitchen that would compliment any home décor. I especially like that it is vintage without being dated. Kudos to KidKraft on a fabulous design.
- This play kitchen is small but mighty! It is easy to move around and small enough that when it is not in use it can be easily stored. We love how compact this play kitchen is making it easy to move around the house {we change where our play areas are frequently to keep things fresh}.
- We are a huge fan of functionality of this kitchen. Every door has a handle and is able to open and close. Every knob turns. Each door is also furnished with a cabinet latch that prevents the cabinets from swinging open on their own.
- My children love that their kitchen mimics mommy’s kitchen. The stove and microwave can both be seen through and the microwave has a turntable! These features make pretend play in the play kitchen that much more realistic for them.
- Another great and well thought out feature is the removable sink. My boys have a tendency to get sticky little fingers on everything. They also like to play with their real snacks in their play kitchen. Being able to easily remove the sink to clean is extremely convenient.
The White Vintage Kitchen does not come fully assembled. It does come with detailed step-by-step pictorial instructions. Although it took us about two hours to put together, we had a fun time working on this project as a family. My three-year-old son especially loved being daddy’s little helper.
I am a huge fan of the White Vintage Kitchen. KidKraft did an amazing job creating a stylish and sturdy play kitchen. I am fully confident in the quality of this KidKraft product and believe that it will stand the test of time with my children. This is a strong sturdy piece of play equipment that my children love. I adore that it is clean, simple, and tasteful.
