    Just built a new kitchen!

    Construction went pretty smoothly overall -- no major problems. (I don't know why people complain so much about building kitchens! ) Now I'm ready for the big time!

    My little girl just turned three. Yes it was a kit -- a gift from the grandparents. It was a great gift, too -- both the kids absolutely love it.

    What gets me is how she immediately recognized the phone as a phone. We don't have any phones that look like that anymore...

    Yes, yes, but I see a safety hazard : all the stove controls seem to be in the 'on' position....

    Nice color - can imagine your kids waking up early and making a beeline for it rightaway!

      It's not an exact replica of your kitchen is it?

          That is very cute indeed. My kids have something similar but it is one of the plastic ones and is not nearly as detailed.

            Looks great, much nicer than the typical plastic kitchens. Do you know the name/brand of the kit or where they got it?

              That's the x chromosome at work. She already knows how to use every type of phone device.

              Neat kitchen, BTW.
