We’re celebrating National Cappuccino Day (Sunday, November 8) with a cup of pretend play fun for the little ones!
Coffee in real life means literal fuel for many parents and caregivers. But enjoying a steaming hot cup of pretend play coffee with your little barista is a great opportunity for kids who love pretend play to enjoy quality time with you while also practicing developmental skills they’ll need for school and beyond.
A cappuccino is traditionally made with equal parts espresso, steamed milk, and frothy milk foam, but you and your little barista can enjoy National Cappuccino Day however you like with our Wooden Cafe Barista Coffee Shop!
Perk up playtime with this full-service wooden coffee shop that lets kids be the barista or the customer! Use the coffee maker with a flip filter and “steamer” and the drink dispenser with frother to prepare pretend espressos, whipped cream-topped lattes, tea, and cold drinks. Customers may choose from items listed on the magnetic menu board, including wooden double-sided cake pops, cookies, and granola bars. Then, slide the credit card in the card reader, and sign the magnetic pad to pay for purchases! This 35-piece play food set offers kids 3 to 7 countless opportunities to develop early learning skills and to create, imagine, and role play.
