Play Kitchen that doubles as a playhouse!
When we recently tried out an amazing new product by global company Plum, it looked like the birthday fairies delivered a little early for our little Nins.
It came in the way of a deluxe two in one peppermint townhouse/interactive kitchen – a unique space saving children’s toy designed with a funky retro edge.
One of the reasons why I love this product is because Plum is an environmentally conscious brand who ensures that all of their timber or timber based products have been sourced from either sustainably managed or FSC certified sources.
Not to mention the fantastic space saving design that allows children to either get all master chef 101 on one side, then flip it to channel Neale Whitaker (my interior style crush) and go to town with their interior styling skills on the other.
With this amazing two in one design, the hours of non stop at home entertainment seem never ending with this little beauty residing in our humble abode, and the best part is I know how beneficial these play based experiences are for a child’s social and language development, especially in the early childhood years. 
Since it’s arrival I have really cherished listening, watching and even joining my children play as they enter the magical world of make believe.
With that in mind, it’s tech free time for me now so I can go and check out what Indi is making for dinner.
Bye for now and thanks for stopping by,

educational benefits of pretend play (dramatic play, role play, imaginative play):
- develops social skills as children share, take turns and seek help if needed
- encourages language development, communication and can help to build vocabulary
- stimulates creativity as children enter a world requiring imagination
- develops both fine and gross motor skills when opening, closing, stacking, moving and mixing etc
I am obsessed with the mint decor in the playroom, and your style in general. Beautiful, crisp, and whimsical all at once. I needed up buying this kitchen for Christmas for 2 year old daughter after reading your blog review!
Are those kewpie dolls? What size fit in the dollhouse?
Anyway – you are my style inspiration, and that’s hard to do! 🙂

Hi! Such a cute room! I was wondering where you got the cutie pa tootie print? Thanks!
Hi Bridget, this print was by a brand called ‘keton kids’ XX
Wow, another great room this is. The decor is incredible! I’m really pleased that you highlighted the educational benefits at the end of your post. It’s important, has a parent to remember that a playroom is more than just another messy room to clean. Thank you for sharing!
