play kitchen, for now

There was a lot of snow on Sunday. We didn't want to go out. And Natalie was pitifully playing "cook" using her stool as a stove, and looking for something to use as an oven. We are planning on building her a play kitchen for Christmas (after giving up the idea that we don't have the space for one since she loves to play "cook"). But since we're not there yet, and since we were bored, and snowed in, we made her a temporary cardboard box and duct tape play kitchen. We haven't glued the knobs on yet, but the cupboard and oven open, and stay closed with velcro. It's a hit.



Elmo and Barney are reaping the benefits of all-you-can-drink smoothies and tea.
Don't they look happy?!

Like any good engineer, Natalie is learning the power of duct tape at a properly early age. I approve.

Your play kitchen looks awesome! Just goes to prove kids don't really need much to be very happy.
