Kids loves kitchen, playing in the kitchen with the dough, cookie cutters and playing around watching me bake and toast. My girl told me that she wants to learn baking and making cakes at her preschool age, and keep playing play doh, serving me her masterpieces! Oh, my! They are having fun, but whenever I am cooking on the stove, they came by and the fried oil and fire make me scared. I need to find ways to get them out of this dangerous place. There are all knives, in-plugs and hot surfaces , and mess to keep you busy. BHG Youtube Channel shares with us a fabulous solution to make our own “play kitchen” for them from recycled cabinet which is safe, fun for them to play for hours.
Supplies you need:
- An old TV Cabinet
- Spray paint
- Kitchen stuff (CD/DVD disks, Metal bow, vinyl tiling, cutains, shoe box etc)
- Get out your old or broken TV cabinet, or if you don’t have one, try your flea market or thrift store near your home. Craigslist is a great source to get the old junk at lowest cost.
