Best Play Kitchen Accessories for Pretend Baking

Pretend whisk spatula and mixing bowl play kitchen accessories

A play kitchen is only the beginning. What keeps kids coming back are the accessories they can use to create different recipes, routines, and stories.

1. Pretend flour and sugar

Flour and sugar instantly establish a baking theme. The Play Flour Bag and Play Sugar Bag can live in the play pantry or move into grocery-store play.

2. Butter, eggs, and milk

Add the Play Stick of Butter, Play Egg Carton & Eggs, and Play Milk Carton to make the refrigerator side of the play kitchen feel just as complete.

3. A mixing bowl

The Play Mixing Bowl gives kids somewhere to combine their imaginary ingredients and act out the actual preparation.

4. A whisk and spatula

The Play Whisk & Spatula Set adds the motions of whisking, stirring, flipping, and serving.

5. Cookies and a cookie sheet

The Cookies & Milk Pretend Play Set gives the pretend recipe a finished result kids can arrange and serve.

6. A coordinated ingredient set

The Play Baking Ingredient Set is a good fit when the kitchen already has bowls and utensils but needs realistic food.

7. A complete set

For a bigger upgrade, the Deluxe Play Baking Set combines the ingredients and tools into one coordinated baking setup.

Why coordinated accessories work well

A smaller group of pieces that all belong to the same activity can create more focused play than a large assortment of unrelated toy food. For little bakers, flour, sugar, butter, eggs, milk, a bowl, and utensils naturally tell one story.
