The wooden and plastic pretend food that goes with our play kitchen is a disaster!
It’s usually all over the floor and it makes me want to walk right back out of the room or collect it in a haste and throw it all away, however, we use it for so many things all of the time that I keep it around.
We’ve used our play food to:
- sort by color
- sort by shape
- sort by type
- put into our miniature shopping cart
- “cook” with it in the play kitchen
Sometimes you need something extra and exciting to do with ALL of that play food you’ve invested in, which is why I made these pretend play shopping lists.
You could also use it at the grocery store as a scavenger hunt,
an i-spy game,
or a interactive shopping list.
This free Pretend Play Shopping List for kids has spiced up the kids’ pretend play in the kitchen and grocery store!
The Pretend Play Shopping Lists for kids
are perfect for
matching,
counting,
visual discrimination,
beginning readers,
and for just having fun playing!
If your children like the grocery lists, they will also love these printable recipes!
