Isn't pretend food just the best? It's my favorite toy for kids. I'm going to let my daughter paint a wooden candy store for Valentine's day. https://www.etsy.com/listing/115445409/paint-your-own-deluxe-wooden-candy-store

Pretend food is fab! I made some felt tortellini and pasta bows a couple of weeks ago for my son's toy kitchen. It was dead simple, cost less than £1.50 (under 2 dollars) to make and my son was really chuffed with it. Much better than the plastic stuff :)

Seriously cute!

My partner has been knitting and felting play food for our 2 year old niece for the past year and these will be great ideas for more items in the future! Especially those black and white cookies - as a native New Yorker, they bring me back!

Sugar, sugar, sugar... Couldn't they make some featuring healthy foods? Or is it OK to continue to brainwash our children into thinking these poor eating habits are cool? Perhaps we should give them some felt cigarettes to play with...

A black and white cookie (which: yum!) once in a while isn't going to hurt anybody. Unless a child has diabetes or another medical condition that requires they limit sugar intake, you're not doing the kid any favors by forbidding sweets. It's all about moderation, and nothing about this post encourages unhealthy habits.

And by the way, check out etsy. You'll find approximately a million felt veggies and fruits, if that's what you're looking for.
