Play With Your Food

Playing with your food again? With foods like these, you won’t need to worry about scrubbing items off your kid’s face or the floor. Hilary of Lilly Bean Play Food creates fun and delightful meals from felt. Each food item is handcrafted with wool felt, and these meals can even go in the wash!

Sold as sets, these play foods are a great way to introduce vocabulary and encourage imaginative play. The sets above are sold at Mahar Drygoods, but I’d encourage you to also check out the Lilly Bean Play Food website for images of their whole line of play food, including yummy desserts (my favorite!). Price: $32-38 per set.
