Earlier this month, I posted my excitement for opening a box from Pretend Play Kitchen Shop that included the Gudecraft Wood Kitchen Helper. Why was I excited right off the bat? Well, its because I was expecting a ton of pieces to be in the box and a good hour to put it together, but it CAME already assembled!
I have really been trying to let the kids in the kitchen more, but we never had a way to let them ‘up’ near the bar area where I get meals ready, other than a bar stool where they could fall off of it. With the Kitchen Helper, all our problems are solved! Tucker is able to help get meals ready
With my increased love for cooking & baking, I really want the kids to be able to come and help in the kitchen more. Why? Letting the kids in the kitchen really helps with their learning and also to help teach them chores and helps them learn things from baking, helping mom with dishes and so much more! Giving your kids responsibilities are an early age really helps with so much! When you let your kids in the kitchen, let them help cook/prepare meals and even do things like help to wash dishes, this really gives your kids a sense of responsibility and that they can do it. Tucker is so proud when he is allowed to help and that he CAN do it. Here’s a video of him helping make muffins.

I cannot tell you how much I love the Kitchen Helper! When not in use, the Kitchen Helper folds very nicely and can be stored away. We keep ours before you go in to the pantry area. Fits perfect and takes up no room at all!

About the Guidecraft Kitchen Helper from Pretend Play Kitchen Shop:
Guidecraft Wood Kitchen Helper
Kitchen Helper – Lightweight, easy to move and easier to store. Our Kitchen Helper safely and securely allows children to reach countertop height so that they can take part in many learning and sharing activities that are normally not accessible to them. Easily adjust to three platform heights. Wood construction with a rich maple toned finish.
Features include:
- Made of sturdy WOOD construction!
- Childproof EZ folding design
- Folds FLAT for easy storage – less than 7″ wide
- Lightweight – weighs under 18lbs
- Adjust to 3 heights to grow with your kids
- Platform bolts in place for added security
- Attractive Maple toned finish
- Dry erase and chalkboards for floor-level fun
- Ships assembled
- Dimensions: 20.25″L x 20.75″W x 36.75″H
- Weight: 18lb
I have absolutely no ‘mom improvements’ on the Kitchen Helper to suggest. I love everything about it from packaging, delivery, weight, storing, to use, to price. We don’t have a large kitchen, so knowing that this folds up for easy storage is so great! We are looking forward to many more kitchen adventures, chores and baking to share with you all throughout the holidays, and beyond! Pretend Play Kitchen Shop has the most adorable pretend play kitchens that I have seen in a while. I love the colors, the accessories and the endless fun that your little one will have.

And I cannot say enough how AWESOME the kitchen helper is (my daughter is forever “helping” me cook; she calls herself “little chef”. This would really make me feel more secure when she’s helping. Right now it the kitchen chairs that aren’t very kid friendly.
