Wooden Cafe Barista Coffee Shop, 35 pcs

The activity is wonderful for your child's well-being and ability to learn new things:

• Encourages your child to let their imagination soar.
• Great for role play, where little ones practise taking turns to lead and finding their own place in the game. This stimulates your child's ability to cooperate and show empathy.
• Inspires your child to practise social skills, such as being able to wait their turn, lose, trade toys, or listen, being tolerant and patient, and trying to read the situation.

Measures 22 x 60 x 25 cm.
Suitable for children aged 3 yrs. to 7 yrs.

Play food is fantastic for role playing, which inspires your child to imitate real-life scenarios such as shopping, cooking, or going to a café. Talk about where our food comes from and what happens to it inside the body. This expands your child’s vocabulary and knowledge.

Role play where children imitate real-life activities expands their understanding of the world they live in. With play food, your child also gets the chance to be silly and play with food in a way that is probably not okay at dinner with real food. Also, you can expand your child's play opportunities by playing grocery store, maybe with little homemade signs and price tags. That way, you can explore both numbers and words, and your child can build up their confidence practising polite phrases and adding up small sums.
