The French Café from Little Play Spaces takes the fun and convenience of a typical cardboard play space and adds to it all kinds of wonderful interactive features that kids will love. Including my favorite, a real chalkboard for writing the daily specials. Gâteau, anyone?
I love that it's designed by a mom of an 8-year-old, who finally created a great play space for older kids to enjoy. But that also means it's big. Like, really, really big. So you need a big playroom. Fortunately, it can fold up when not in use.
Truly, the mama-designer thought of everything. There's a customizable street sign, a stand-up table menu, an open & closed sign--with French translations, of course--and something else I love, a parent peep-hole at the top, so you can see all the action in the café. When your little one outgrows it? Well, aside from passing it down to another aspiring francophone, the whole thing can be completely recycled. -Stephanie
