Pretend play has to be my favorite.. err… my kids’ favorite thing to do. Who doesn’t love pulling your play shopping cart up to a pretend store and going shopping? You can probably guess that I have done this a lot and, well, you are right! When you have a product as adorable as the In the Market Shopping Cart from The Land of Nod, how can you resist?
Product Details: In the Market Shopping Cart
This sturdy steel shopping cart is ideal for the little one with an extensive history of reaching across the aisle. Real, kid sized shopping cart features rubber breaking tips, pivoting front wheels, folding front seat and plastic wheels and handles.

Mom’s thoughts
- The size of the shopping cart is 11.25″Wx15.5″Dx23.5″H. I think this is a perfect size for kids, and yes, adults to play with when the kids aren’t looking.
- The In the Market Shopping Cart was so easy to put together. So easy! There were pieces to screw in and attach (such as the plastic piece where the ‘play baby’ can sit, but overall, putting this cart together was easy and the time was short.
- The price of the In the Market Shopping Cart is very reasonable, in my opinion. I have seen other play carts that are not as realistic as this one is and the price is very reasonable.
- The In the Market Shopping Cart is so lifelike! It has a space for the kids’ baby to sit in, and this area can fold up in case the kids are in the mood to shop in ‘bulk’.
- At first, I wasn’t fond of the rubber breaking tips because the kids would get stuck in the doorway, but it is perfect so the cart will not tip as you would expect it to.
Price
- $49.00
